Drone Green Light

Post by Abs »

Hi all,

I'm replacing the drones in my mod with human graphics, but I've come across a problem. I've had no issues replacing the graphic, but in-game, it shows up with a green light above their head. Is it a hardcoded image, or can this successfully be removed?

Here's a picture:

Thanks in advance,

I'm pretty sure that light comes from repair_layer1.png in img/people. If you modify that image to be completely empty and add it to your mod's people folder then this should make the lights disappear. You could event use this layer to add additional glow details to your crew, like glowing eyes or whatever. I think the layer is recolored depending on drone affiliation. (Enemy drones have red lights, right?)
