PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE set Color for Individual units

Post by HardLuckYetAgain »

Could we PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring back to being able to "set" color for individual units please. It was a god send function I used to differentiate things with the Soviets. I can color code from HQ's but not individual units. Or am I missing this setting somewhere?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring this back for individual units.

I also used this to identify quickly my "elite" units (more than 80 and 90 morale).
I don't understand why this possibility disapeared with WITW. It was very helpful.
I'm sure it should be very simple to implement this in a new patch (but I'm not a expert at all...).

Ya, I really really really really really want this function back. I use it for reminders all the time like you do. I hope it is that simple to implement.

As long as you can set the formation color lock stock and barrel. Otherwise I don't have a need for individual counters having their own colors. Now if we can have different colors for the unit symbol that would be awesome, then we could use those darker colors and actually see what the symbol is.
