I know this is kind of nit picky, but any way you guys could add a 1 to VSD1/ISD1 and a T to the Tector icon? Would help distinguish them at a quick glance. I notice the MC40 also looks a lot like the MC80 Home One type, some way to make those easy to distinguish would be awesome too!

Looks like I'm the only one this urks a bit. Any ideas what program I would need to make the changes myself? If it's something I can wrap my head around, I would happily do it and upload it as a mini mod. In turn the dev team would be more than welcome to incorporate it into their base mod.

Why would you need that for Imperials and Victories? They already have different icons with the corresponging number. Tector I can sort of understand, the icon is just a dark ISD.

Because sometimes when I'm in a hurry I drag in an ISD or VSD when I mean to drag in a 2. Guess it's just personal preference.

As Ordo says, that differentiation is already in ICW for ISDs and VSDs.  The VSD-II and ISD-II have II on the icon (top left corner) to set them apart from the I's.

I think adding a T to the Tector Icon is a good idea but I disagree that the other icons need adjusting.
