Images and drawing

If your mod shows images, put them in a folder next to your DLL and load them like this:

AetherResources.LoadTexture("my_mod", "textures/icon.png");

To make your mod’s UI feel like part of the game, use Block Story’s original sprites (UIAtlas) instead of drawing flat boxes.

Rules that avoid trouble

• Do not create new things every frame when drawing the UI (textures, styles, fonts): create once and reuse. Otherwise the game stutters.
• Do not read blocks from areas that are not loaded. Use SafeVoxels.GetBlockSafe or GetBlockFast, which do it safely.
• If something has to wait, wait for the first frame (the client entrypoint), not for game boot.
