Icons

Across various features of Palladium you'll come across "icons". They are a generalized way to define a 16x16 texture that can be used anywhere (e.g. powers, abilities, etc.).
To define one, you have multiple easy ways to do so.

Inline Definitions

The most common types of icons can be defined in a single line for easy usage.

Item

To display an item you simply specify its ID:

"icon": "minecraft:apple"

Texture

To render a texture you need to specify the path to it, including the .png suffix:

"icon": "example:textures/icon/my_cool_icon.png"

Alternatively, if you have a dynamic texture set up, you can specify it's ID too using a #:

"icon": "#example:my_dynamic_texture"

Sprites

Sprites are a more performant way of rendering textures, as they are all stitched together into one big texture file when the game reloads. They are placed in assets/<namespace>/textures/gui/sprites/<filename>.png.
So to use one as an icon, you need to specify its ID which results from its path. As an example, a sprite texture file located at assets/example/textures/gui/sprites/icon/my_cool_icon.png would be example:icon/my_cool_icon:

"icon": "example:icon/my_cool_icon"

Specific Definitions

To access more icon types you have to write out their definitions specifically, by declaring them by type. Below is a list of available types added by Palladium. In your palladium/documentation/palladium folder you can find a similiar that's auto-generated by the mod which can include icons that are added by other mods.
