Units and Group Assignments?

[pad152]

How do I tell which units are assigned to which groups? Once I assign units to groups, where doesn't seem to be a way to get a list of units by Groups when doing the AI.

Highlight by Group on Map

Is there a way to Find/highlight Group(s) when on the deployment map (something like F1 showing/highlight units in Group1, F2 - Group2, etc.)?

pad152,

No, unfortunately there is not a way to highlight groups on the map. You can only see to which Group belongs an unit at the Unit Editor's right column, the Activated Troops display (i.e. [A2] [A3] ... [A8]). So, it's not a bad idea to take paper and pencil and copy that information to make use of it in the AI Editor and when deploying the units. The new "Scenario Author Test" feature is great to see if your AI Groups work as expected, so you could try to test the Groups one at a time and finally all together.

Cheers,

"Scenario Author Test" I'm not seeing this, where can I find it?

Scenario Author Test is a selection you can make when launching a Battle, in the same place where you select to play Single Player, Turn-base, RTS etc. You are then basically playing without (visible) Fog of War.
