To find a missing unit under your control, I think you can just open up the Order of Battle and click on it, and the game will automatically focus to it.

A simple solution, invert the graphic for the UAS that has a rectangle, and displace it to the bottom with respect to the transparent background.

Thank you for the tip. I didn't actually lose it, since this was a very small scenario - but it was sure as hell hard to find at a glance.

Is this something you've done on your end? Would love to learn how and what file to replace.

The files are located in this folder. You will see a number of UAV fixed wing graphic files.
\Command Modern Operations\Symbols\Directional
They are similar to the UAS', but inverted and with rectangle.


I use Paint.net, is free.

https://github.com/paintdotnet/release/ ... s/tag/v5.1.


First, back up all the UAS and UAV files in that folder, or better the folder itself. In case something goes wrong or you are not happy with the results.

Open one of the UAS files with paint.net, and follow this procedure for all the files you want to mod.
