Mouse Cursors

Location

Cursors for Spring are stored in the Anims directory.

Supported Image Formats

The cursors have to be in either:

  • png
  • tga
  • bmp

To make transparent sections in bmp's use RGB(84, 84, 252).

Filename

Even if your cursor isn't animated, it must have the _0 at the end of its name.

Animated Cursors

To make animated cursors, just make a sequence where the filenames start with '_0' at the end of the first in the sequence, going on sequentially until the last frame.

Default Cursors

All cursors must also be present in one form or another, even if they are not used by your mod or else Spring will whine. Here's a list of the various cursor names used in the game:

Sequence name Description

cursorcapture_0 Capture Command Cursor
cursordefend_0 Guard Command Cursor
cursormove_0 Move Command Cursor
cursornormal_0 Default (unactive) cursor
cursorpatrol_0 Patrol Command Cursor
