Frequently asked questions

How do I make my world icon update?
Just load the world normally — the mod regenerates the icon automatically each time the world is loaded. No keybind, command, or config change is needed to trigger it.
Does the icon update when I quit or when I load?
The new icon is captured when the world is loaded, so the image you see in the world list reflects the state of the world at that moment. The previous icon is replaced rather than kept as a history.
Why is my world icon still the same after loading?
Make sure the mod is actually loaded for that world's session and that you fully exited and re-entered the world list. If the icon still looks identical, the view at load time may simply be very similar to the old one.
Can I choose which build shows up as my world icon?
The icon is taken from wherever the player is positioned when the world loads, so stand at or near the build you want featured before loading in. Positioning yourself so the build is in view is the practical way to control it.
