F1 attack order

Post by nukkxx5058 »

Hi, when I order a unit to attack an enemy with F1, I don't see where the order is stored ? It's not in the message log, not in
the right bar (can just see the missions). The problem is that often, particularly when there are large number of units I don't remember what F1 order I gave to each unit (ie who should attack who) and I don't see it stored anywhere so in fact I'm not sure I already gave an order, and which one.
Am I missing something ?

Straight from the manual on page 42...

"Targeting Vectors
Displays a broken green line from shooter to target and a small text date block below showing how target was allocated (manual or auto) and the expected time of weapon release.
Using the drop-down menu you can set this to be displayed for: the selected unit, all units or None by clicking on your choice in the drop down. It is set to None by default to lower the clutter on the display"

In the same manual it states that the units status switches to "Engaged Offensive".

Ah Cool !!! yes I remember now the targeting vector thing. For some reason the option was changed to "none" and I forgot it. I had the impression that I was missing something [:D]
Perfect ! Thanks.
