Hidden Enemy Units appear with Rt Click.

Greetings~
While playing the Smolensk scenario as the axis with full FoW, if I
1. enter the rail mode (F2)
2. Click the shift key button
3. Choose a unit (any unit)
4. Then Right click on an empty hex, <Here's where I'm not sure if this is an issue or not.> If there's an enemy unit it will suddenly appear. I did check the manual, but didn't see anything of note.

Thanks for a great game.
Cheers,
M.

Movement FOW is not active in Transport mode. So it must be a side effect of it. Will try to fix it.

This sounds like the same thing that I reported in tm.asp?m=2739631

Yes, it has the same nature.

I can replicate it in the GC vs the AI. I guess we have to assume that FoW is not effective in PBEM games, unless we know the other player very well and trust him.

I haven't ran into that issue simply because each side has a bajillion recon planes and I spend the beginning of every turn reconnoitering every other hex fifteen hexes deep up and down the line :)

Finally! Another player who truly understands what the damned things are good for!
