Scrolling thru the Team monitor

Post by mickxe5 »

I absentmindedly rolled the scroll wheel thinking to zoom out and was surprised that it scrolls thru the Team monitor, highlighting tms in the monitor while centering view on, and selecting tms as you go. Scrolling teams always starts with the first on the monitor and works even when the monitor is toggled off.

The visual effect is jarring, like watching a series of smash cuts in an action movie. In a battle using 21 tms its more eye candy than a useful method for command and control but a fun, undocumented PITF/GTC trick during lulls in the battle.

Now if only you could click individual soldiers in the Soldier monitor, center view on, and select them...
