Icon question

in my map there is 3 different ways to get troops
1:adding troop 2 spawn
2:upgrading main spawn
3:making 12 troops

the thing is with all them under the same biulding the icons might look the same. is there any way to give the icons a glow? or a border some way so when the go 2 train/buy the troop that can see which way out of the 3 they are doing with out hovering over the icon and reading the words that pop up.

Re: Icon question

you just need to export the icons, edit them and make 3 different versions, then reimport them, no other way possible that i know of

Re: Icon question
