Sensible Theatre Icons

Description
Sensible Theatre Icon (STI) is focused on making the theatre icons (for both army groups, armies and navies) more easily recognizable. It started as a personal mod because I didn't really liked the assortment of vanilla icons, but always loved the selection present on MPU Theatre Icons (thanks @mpu.daemos for the inspiration).

The icons are colourable, following the in-game palette and do not overwrite vanilla icons (generic and country specific).

What STI adds:
  • 73 new Army Group Icons
    • 20 arabic numerals
    • 26 alphabet letters
    • 15 military acronyms (HQ,SF,ART,etc.)
    • 11 military based symbols
    • 1 blank
  • 139 new Army Icons
    • 30 arabic numerals
    • 25 roman numerals
    • 26 alphabet letters
    • 31 military acronyms (HQ,SF,ART,etc.)
    • 17 nato-like icons
    • 5 stylized military icons
    • 4 cardinal points icons
    • 1 blank
  • 100 new Fleets and Navy Task Forces Icons (big for fleets, small for task forces)
    • 15 arabic numerals (big)
    • 8 cardinal points (big)
    • 16 oceans and seas areas (big)
    • 2 acronyms (big)
    • 8 military stylized icons (big)
    • 10 military stylized icons (small)
    • 14 acronyms (small)
    • 27 task-force-esque numerals (11,12,13,14,21,22,23,24,etc.)

Compatibility
STI should be compatible with ALL modification, unless they specifically change graphics in the theatre panel (icons & alerts). The mod however has a very small footprint as I ensure that it does and will always pertain to his scope.

FAQ
Can you add more icons?
It seems there is an hardcoded limit on the number of icons, so far we've touched it already on the navy icons so I can try add more to army groups and armies
Can you extend your work on map/unit counters?
I really would like to, however I barely manage to keep up with STI. Hopefully at some point I will do that
Can you add real unit insigna?
I thought about that but the hardcoded limit would prevent us from benefitting for generic icons like the one present in the mod
I've found a BUG!
Please post a comment here, I'll try to solve ASAP!

Special Thanks
All of you from the community with your comments, suggestions and bug reports!

Update: Just delete the interface folder in 394360/1915965716. None of the files within do anything from checking the code.

I love this mod, but it currently crashes the game when loading a save, because "interface/countrytechtreeview.gui" is missing "special_project_tech_icon_offset". Pls fix.

This mod should really be merged into the game! I don't understand how P.I. doesn't have more options like this mod provides.. that being said, I miss this mod and can't play HOI4 without it :( Thanks for doing what's been done so far!

please someone, update or rewrite this mod. It is so useful with its clean icons. We particularly need good, non cartoonish, naval and air icons

@Sudwind Because in WA there are changes in the interface file, and this mod goes for the vanilla version. It needs a compatibility patch to make the mod work on WA.
