RTSunit selection circle error

I renamed the starter.RTS folder and now the selection circle shows up as a giant solid square. :( does anyone know how to correct this?

My guess is a script someplace in the renamed starter.rts folder is specifically asking for the image located in starter.rts. I would search all of the scripts, via a find in files, for the string "starter.rts" and replace any filenames you come across.

I found the answer on my own and instead of erasing my thread I will just answer it to help anyone else who might find themselves stumbling over this.

This is just for anyone that wants to start building from the RTS Kit and be able to not have to have starter.RTS as the name of the folder in their game folder

Solution: You must rename all the .cs files that have the starter.RTS/ absolute link in them. Then the cute little snippet of code is located in line 801 of file terrData.cc that has starter.RTS as the root folder in the link.

It's always good to post solutions if you find 'em on your own. Thanks.
