Is there any way to add to the text icon list? (i.e. [ICON_RESEARCH])
Some things (Like resources and yields) use these and it'd be neat to add custom ones.
(And obviously the TEXT_KEYs)
 
Yes, it's possible. You need the following:
  • .dds file(s) with the graphics (imported into VFS)
  • .ggxml file(s) (one for each .dds file) (imported into VFS)
  • Database row(s) in the IconFontTextures table (one for each .dds file)
  • Database rows in the IconFontMapping table (one for each icon)
Check an existing mod that adds font icons (for example this one by whoward69) to see how it's done in detail.
