Not a mod, per se, but can someone tell me where to look for this?

If possible, all I'd like to do is modify the two plants available in vanilla for the indoor planters. Basically just re-naming them and swapping the art.

Not sure where to begin, or if it's more complicated than I think it is. I had a look through the Rimworld files attempting to simply find the art assets, and missed them somehow (or they're in a file format I'm unfamiliar with). Seemed like back in A9 (the last version I played), there was a folder full of .png's.

RawCode

1) Get notepad++ its "free".

2) Read manual and stuff, you need to know how to use "Find in files" routine

3) No matter how bad you are at coding and stuff, you can see name of object, likely translated into your local language.

4) Use that name as keyword for "Find in file", target folder is Rimworld\mods\

5) You will see something like

<ColdSnap.label>резкое похолодание</ColdSnap.label>

where <ColdSnap.label> is true name and field of object

6) Search for "true name", you will find object def you want

7) Change fields you want to change and it's done
