Objective Radius. Red Circle?

Post by born2see »

In the manual it says "On the ground beneath the Major Objective marker there will be a red circle". I admit I'm a rookie but I've won some scenarios and I've never seen said circle. Just me?

If you get tired of answering my questions let me know. I really do try to find the answers before I post. :S

Thanks as usual.

Besides, I've never seen the red circle, either.

born2see – I do remember a circle, but I remember one as a yellow \ gold color that spins around.

I think that you have to click on the highest ranking officer \ or have the highest ranking officer within the radius of the objective to see it.

It took me the longest to find exactly which graphic controlled that, so that I could remove it from my game. I hate playing with icon’s over the units or anything that interferes with my view of the units marching \ fighting.

BTW – Questions – may also help someone else that comes along after you, and if they have the same questions, they would just read your post and get the answers.

Yeah, yellow circle, sometimes red?...don't remember :blush:

Makes no difference, indicates objective location on the ground. This was added because before, the hovering objective sometimes made it unclear where the ground objective actually was. This solidifies ground zero, makes it easier to determine your radius.

Questions are as important as answers with a forum, they breathe life. :) It's the multi threads for one issue that chaff my :sick:

I seem to remember that in the tutorials it said that it was a red circle but it was in fact as Davinci states white or gold.
