Roast Duck Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 My troops are breaking and running around like a squirrel on a highway, but I am not getting the red dot for being rattled. Nor are my vehicle crews getting tagged after breaking and bailing out. I am not complaining just curious. Did the marker change for being rattled? An aside, the American M1919 MMG sure jams at the most inconvenient times... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holman Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Have you fooled around with graphics mods? Maybe you accidently deleted the red dot bmp. It's number 1078, I believe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junk2drive Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Off the top of my head, you only get a yellow or red text warning at first. After they have run away and recovered, then they get the red dot to let you know they could run again. BTW I modded my dot bigger and added red dots to bailing and a green dot to ok. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hensworth Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 The red dot first appears when your unit goes to broken. They keep it for the rest of the battle and it means their morale is now very brittle, they will break again under the slightest bit of pressure. It has nothing to do with the ability to run. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenAsJade Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 It's not a red dot in CMAK. It's a funny red mark at the end of the status bar. I thought it was a graphics glitch till someone pointed it out! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDork Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 KG-Steiner, check out the picture here. On the bottom, center of the screenshot there is a little red dot after the "broken". After a while the squadron might recover but it will always have the little red dot. This means that their morale will be brittle for the rest of the battle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holman Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I found the default CMAK "rattled" dot to be difficult to notice, so I ported over the dot from CMBB. It's bmp 1078 in both games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roast Duck Posted November 1, 2004 Author Share Posted November 1, 2004 Greetings, I looked up Bmp 1078, the icon has changed from a red circle to a red rectangle. I was just having a hard time recognizing the new symbol. Thanks, I was having trouble figuring out who was "rattled". This battle has been one of attrition with both sides grinding each other down, and liberal use of artillery. My little "Tron" troopers have been using every soldiers right to ignore some of my more unhealthy orders. Now I can see who still has faith in their commander. Thanks again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junk2drive Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I used MS paint and made the red area larger. Easier for my old eyes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
