"The WIKI sucks on this topic."
This means that the WIKI doesn't explain the thing well enough.
I tried like the WIKI said but it doesn't work.

So where are you getting stuck? You create a separate file in the GFX folder. See how vanilla does it and adjust from there.
I added the following to my decision.
my_decision_julia{
spriteTypes = {
spriteType = {
name = "GFX_my_decision_julia"
texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\decision_icon_catholic_pilgrimage.dds"
}
}
}
It doesn't work.
PS why is this forum removing my space characters. This is stupid.

Code:
spriteTypes = {
spriteType = {
name = "GFX_my_decision_julia"
texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\decision_icon_catholic_pilgrimage.dds"
}
}All goes in a separate file. You really should read more carefully. The wiki contains all of this information.
Oh, now I see it too. It's irritating written. There should be more information about this.
For example: You need to specify your icon in a separate text file with an GFX extension. This should be in your GFX text file written:
spriteTypes = {
spriteType = {
name = "GFX_<YOUR_DECISION_NAME_HERE>"
texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\<YOUR_DDS_FILENAME_HERE>"
}
}
Make sure to change <YOUR_DECISION_NAME_HERE> with your actually decision name and <YOUR_DDS_FILENAME_HERE> with your actually dds filename in gfx\\interface\\ directory.
You can add more icons by simply adding more spriteType{...} within your spriteTypes{...} in your GFX file. For example:
spriteTypes = {
spriteType = {
name = "GFX_my_first_decision"
texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\my_first_decision.dds"
}
spriteType = {
name = "GFX_my_second_decision"
texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\my_second_decision.dds"
}
spriteType = {
name = "GFX_my_third_decision"
texturefile = "gfx\\interface\\my_third_decision.dds"
}
}
#This would be a good help, not those 2 short lines in the WIKI.
