A Couple Of Things That Bother Me About Placing Units During The Setup Phase

[Col Deadmarsh]

1. Why isn't there a top-down view (#5) like there was in CMBB where you could get right on top of a unit and see close up where they are on the map?

2. Why isn't there more control of where you can place a unit in a building during the set up phase? I may want to place a unit on one side of a structure but the AI takes over and places them wherever it sees fit.

1. If you go higher, you get the direct top down view. It "sticks", as long as you don't change the camera elevation, as you go back lower.

2. Try FACE or COVERED ARC. This applies IN a building. Is that to which you're referring?

I use view 3 with the camera tilted all the way down and it works fine for me. It's a bit fussy because you have to reorient the camera any time you change the view, but I don't regard it as that big a deal.
