Able to open DDS files, and quite able to do whatever you need with such simple icons
For what exactly each file does, see how the other mods have done it.

This is the path to the folder where these need to be
\textures\ui\common\game\orders

The red boat with the target on is quite cool, but seems you put shbomb_btn_up_sel (i presume this is the turret) on water
How do i open these files in paint, I am not so familiar with operating this technical mumbo jumbo around file names etc

you can play around with colours easily, if you don't like the red/green combo...also, add the files that are needed/missing

You know, it's quite easy to do those with basic programs like Paint.net

The ship icon is a water target (so the ships only shoots at ships)
The turret icon is land based stuff like buildings/land units (so here the ship doesnt shoot at ships)

Hi,

Is there anyone skillful in the art of painting icons who wants to contribute to my mod?

What I would like:

Icon 1: Ships is the target
Icon 2: Bombardment mode
Icon 3: Auto Toggle mode

See attached.
