ARCHITECTURE NOTES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Resolution tiers
----------------
The engine uses three tiers for all game-specific and mod-override content:
shadow* -- game art: terrain, units, UI, portraits, factions, politics.
systemgraphics* -- engine UI framework: buttons, hex overlays, fog/shroud masks.
shadowmodgraphics* -- mod overrides for systemgraphics* assets; takes precedence.
BIG and SMALL folders only need to include resolution-dependent files. The engine
falls back to the standard tier for any file absent from BIG/SMALL. This is why
some subfolders exist only in certain tiers, and why BIG terrain tile sets were
recently expanded while SMALL equivalents were only partially updated.
Mod library graphics
--------------------
EventPic and SmallGfx assets assigned to a mod library are stored under a folder
named after the library, not under shadow/. EventPics are loaded without
auto-scaling. SmallGfx are loaded with auto-scaling (BIG/SMALL derived
automatically when not explicitly provided).
Transparent placeholder
-----------------------
systemgraphics/trans.bmp is the engine default for any unset data-driven sprite
reference.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT IS NEW IN V1.31R2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Politics system graphics
New shadow/politics/ folder tree containing UI panels, card artwork (series
2101+), card frames per government type (autocracy, democracy, fanatical,
feudal, meritocracy, oligarchy, spoiled, syndic, tyranny), and 24 unit feat
icons for politics-related abilities. Parallel replacement card set at
shadow/newgfx/politics/card/.
2. Economy resource icons
New shadowBIG/economy/ and shadowSMALL/economy/ (18 icons each): credits,
food, industrialpoints, metal, population, populationhapiness,
populationhunger, populationloyalty, populationpoints, privatefood, recruits,
rounds, truckpoints, truckrange, worker, workerhapiness, workerhunger,
workerpoints.
3. Expanded high-resolution terrain tile sets
Several BIG-tier folders expanded from 2-4 prototype images to full 65-70
file tile sets: ForestedHills/Normal/, ForestedHills/Snow/, Forests/Snow/,
fredhill/, fredmountain/, Woods/Normal/, Woods/Snow/. The SMALL tier received
the same expansion for Snow variants of ForestedHills and Woods.
4. Division counter graphic
shadowBIG/ and shadowSMALL/ each gain a root-level division.png.
5. Expanded location sprite sheets
shadowBIG/locs/ grows from 25 to 38 files with sprites_* variants for cities,
domes, industry, agricultural, construction, logistical, and scavenge
settlement types (each in standard and "2" variant).
6. New SMALL-tier terrain folders
shadowSMALL/mountains/ (6 mountain tile variants) and shadowSMALL/Flags/
(2 flag/icon files) are new.
7. Minor additions across tiers
shadowBIG/regime_flags/ and shadowSMALL/regime_flags/ each gain a "Casualties"
file with no extension; shadow/regime_flags/ is unchanged at 32 files.
shadowmodgraphics/ gains 8 root-level UI override files. shadow/navyassets/
grows by 3 to 31. shadow/card/ gains 1. shadowBIG/mapicons/ gains 3.
shadowBIG/cloud/ and shadowBIG/jungle/ each gain 4 files.
systemgraphics/se1/ gains 1 file. Several placeholder folders now contain
a PlaceHolder file.
