Occupied airfield highlight?

Post by greycat »

How does one highlight airfields that contain friendly air units during the reaction phase? The relevant button is present during the movement pahse but not thereafter.

The short version: You can't.

The slightly longer version:
It would be more than nice to have that option. in absence of that option, I pause the game, and either search the airfields individually or set up a waypoint, so I can see where the fighters will come from.

[:(]Thanks for the tip. In the original versions of the game you could do it, so I was a bit stumped when I couldn't immediately locate my units. Hopefully this feature will make it in to the next patch. It makes playing as the defender a lot quicker.

If I understand your query correctly you should be able to click the "AP" button on the right side and that will highlight all airfields with units on them. Not sure if that highlight remains active during the "Action" phase, but it will highlight the airfields during the briefing stage.
