So I am trying to add custom icons to units (including newly purchased ones) on my account. It wont let me do it (I am using mobile app). Strangely enough, though, when I went to create a new account and went to edit a newly purchased unit on this new account and it gave me the option to add custom icons. What is up with this?

Do you have a graphics pack enabled? Having one wil remove the option.
If that isn't it, can you confirm what you're using to access MC? (Mobile browser, iOS app, droid app etc).
Thanks.

Ah thats probably my issue. Completely forgot about that. Now for the two icons (with and without lights) does the with lights one have to be a gif or will it alternate between lights and no lights images when responding to a call?
-
It's setup so when it's in 'emergency mode' it will alternate between the two images. On/off kind of thing.
-
Gotcha. And how do the animated texture packs work?
-
They're .APNG which isn't supported in all browsers, but will work in most updated ones.
They will still alternate for now though so it will alternate 50/50 between animated picture and normal.Sebastian may implement a way to fully use the animated image only but hasn't given a timeframe.

What size do the icons need to be? Just added one and it was WAY to huge
-
Size is completely up to you. I use less than 50x50 px

My issue was the icon was taking up the whole map and was like a few hundred pixels wide by a few hundred tall. Ill try that or maybe 100 by 100

Icons are usually 16, 32 or 64 pixels in any combination you want.
This site gives you an idea of image sizes; https://placeholder.com/

Okay. How can I make my own texture pack and make it publicly available for download? And would it be okay to grab icons to mix and match from other texture packs
-
Use the graphics pack tab and select create new graphics set, get permission before borrowing other's images and give credits
