Changing a sprite
From my prior Unity attempt at this game, I pulled the sprite sheet with the soldier icon. It's a simple 16 x 16 png. In Unity TBS framework, these load from a sprite sheet.
Surprise! The GDquest tutorial uses textures, not sprite sheets!
I spent a while trying to figure out how to pull one frame from the sprite sheet in Godot, but eventually I gave up and cropped out the other sprites.
Second surprise! The GDquest tutorial textures can not be scaled!
I tried to change the 16 x 16 to something bigger so that it is actually visible on screen. I gave up here as well, and used the `sips` command to change the sprite to 256 x 256. Thanks Stackoverflow.
Third surprise! Uploading with butler failed its status check, but uploaded anyway. The uploaded version was old, and without my new sprite.
This was just PEBKAC. I re-ran the butler command from history using the wrong path. All good now!
