Start new campaign so every thing all ok..ammo,morale,leaders
present. On the 2d map some units blinking..Why.
Some in command circle some not some in same squad others not.Cannot figure out why they blink...is probably something simple,but hope someone can shed light for me.

EDIT

The rectangle with pointy end which is a APC changes to
just a solid red dot...Why? Anyone.

This game has a ton of visual clues if i could just figure them out. Thanks.

Got it...If set to hold fire they blink....Thanks

Still look for answer on the solid dot.

If they are blinking yellow they are out of ammo...which is a big problem in many campaigns.

There seems to be a bug in 580 which leads to the icons changing shape. Do you also see the original unit position remaining on the map like a sort of ghost unit?

I don't see this during 581 beta testing, so I have assumed that it was reported elsewhere and fixed.

OK. Then I'm 99% sure that it's fixed in the upcoming patch. I haven't seen it during 581 testing, but I did do a full re-install before I updated, so that could also explain it.
