Tech Tree Arrows

[Tholish]

In Civ 3 there was a pcx which was basically the background for the tech icons in the science advisor. It had the arrows drawn on it, so if you changed the locations of tech icons you had to draw new arrows.

Civ 4 automatically draws the arrows, so if you have a complex tech tree it will probably not understand and will draw them wrong. I would like to ignore those pale gray arrows and draw mine with nice thick black lines, but I cannot find the file where this background is.

Can anyone tell me?

I think it's a python file, but I'm not sure. TGA (The Great Apple) has some nice green lines in his WH40K mod so maybe he knows how to do what you want.

You'll may have to fiddle a bit with the python. At the moment the background doesn't move when you scroll the screen, so what you want to do won't work. I'm not sure what other backgrounds this file controls. You could simply make a new one and edit the referance in the python.
