Hot key to find units?

Post by Fred98 »

In the previous turn I moved a bomber wing over there. However there are a number of stacks of units in the area and now I cannot locate the unit.

Is there a hot key which highlights all the bomber wings across the map?

Are there hot keys which highlight all the units of type "N" across the map?

Too many possiblities to make these "hot keys".

You can use the Units Review (invoked by Ctrl U) and then filter for what you want.

here's the Unit review panel, which updates the insert map with the unit you click on. And will update the main map too, centering on the units hex, if you want it to.

And here are teh filter possiblities. You can save and name your favorites. Notice the additional check boxes at the bottom that reference a unit's current status.
