Is there a way to check details for embarked units?

Post by Ekaton »

At the start of some missions I feel confused as to which units are where. Is there a way to check details (F2) of embarked units? It always shows the unit carrying it instead.
I need ten females for each male...

You can press TAB

Or you can right click on the center of the unit in the Unit List

Otherwise, at the moment, you cannot check out the details for a passenger.

Definitely adding that to the wish list though.

Good question!

In fact, for CSVN v1.10, I am considering implementing Alt+F2 to invoke the Unit Handbook for the (implicit) selected passenger.

I'm glad to see how the community is heard and you make this great game grow, which has me very trapped in its networks, keep it up and you're getting to be the best strategic game in Vietnam so far, I hope that in that patch they add the power to select the texts of the missions, as can be done in the John Tiller games to be able to use google translator and thus help those who do not speak English. THANK YOU for your work

Soon we hope, but we are addressing some unexpected FOW issues.
