For a list of all Descriptor Colors, see Color.

Palette swapping is used to replace a set of colors from in a graphic tile with another set of colors. These sets of colors are called palettes. In the palette.png file, each row of colors is a palette. The top row of colors, by-default, is the palette-to-be-swapped used in the graphic files. The rows of color below are the palettes that it gets replaced with, defined-by-material in the palette_default.txt file. Each row, or palette, can have up to 18 colors.
