Hidden Icons Bleed over...

Gents,

Playing v1.08, TF Thunder. (Slight SPOILER!!)

In the second mission, playing as U.S., the Syrians have several IED's. I have seen their icons (Veteran difficulty), the yellow explosive inside the standard red diamond, when I shouldn't have. No units within hundreds of meters; as soon as I move the camera the icon either disappears, or reverts to the "?" symbol.

It is intermittent. I have seen this several times now, but have not taken a screenshot.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Regards,

Ken

Here is the IED in question. Note that NO U.S. unit has come near the vehicle in question.

How can the U.S. player know this is an IED?

Also, I have seen this icon near the control tower in this same mission. That icon disappeared and never reappeared. No unit has gone near it. The one in this screenshot later exploded.

Regards,

Ken

Speaking of campaigns, are TF THunder and Lightning the same? I started Lightning after finishing Thunder and the missions are identical.

probably you need to play thunder after lighting, that would be the "natural" order

no, as far as i can remember the two campains are only in the non-BFC version of the game and had to do with the publisher doing something on their own. cant say for sure but they are basicly one and the same as far as i remember.
