Question regarding factory locations

[Torben23]

Dear friends, one more questions: Is there something like a factory location filter? Like I only want to show all fuel factories on the map - in order to be more specific in bombing? I read the manual again, but could not find something. If there is no map option, is there a factory location list? Thank you!

One option would be to go to the Commander's Report and under the location tab set it for enemy locations only and then under the industry tab sort by fuel. That should help locate the major refineries by name and hex coordinates.

Cheers man! So there is no map filter option, correct?

[Shellshock]

Well, there are the factory icons that come up on map when you are planning a strategic air directive, but they just give location and no indication of size, unless you hover over them with the mouse.

[Shellshock]

There is a row of filters at the bottom of the strategic planning target menu where you can sort out specific types of factories by size. oil...fuel...manpower...vehicle..etc.(assuming they are in range)

[Shellshock]

So....if you set that filter to "none" and then select a factory type, only those types of factories will be highlighted in red on the map. (Heavy industry in this example) That's probably the closest thing to a map factory filter

Wow, that is what I was looking for! Thank you so much!

Shellshock hit the nail on the head. Also note that the "NUM" column is sortable, so if you click on it it will sort larger to smaller target sizes by city, and then you also can see the range.
