Adding Textures For New Planets

Post by rjord2021 »

For my mod I have around 80 images available for each of the different types of planets.
But am a little confused about maximum number of pictures you can use for oceans worlds, continental worlds,etc.

Eg

The default folder for Distant Worlds has
Ocean-0001.png to Ocean-0020.png Ocean-0017.png is missing so only 19 picture files under Ocean

The manual states
"Ocean: 14 images named Ocean-0001.png to Ocean-0014.png"

The manual also states "any changed planet images that you supply in your theme must precisely match the
filename of an existing planet image."

Does anyone know the max number of images that can be used for example for Ocean worlds in this example and does Distant Worlds ignore the fact that the Ocean-0017.png file is missing.
