Hi,

How about putting into the next WPO and WiTP updates the ability to see what the Hex coords are where the mouse pointer is. Would be nice to have it like that instead of clicking to find it. If it is in the game, I missed it somehow.

Does anyone know if this is an option? I can't find any.

Not sure, I don't think it is. I've always just clicked a hex to see its coordinates.

t would be nice - especially when reading sigint - something I am doing a lot more with WPO than WitP. On that point was the radio transmissions detected thingy dumbed down at all due to less technology?

It was dumbed down, to the extent that the Allies don't have the SIGINT advantage from WitP. The playing field is completely even.

Yeah. SigInt is all but useless, except in determining a general theater of operations.

Boy do I feel dumb.

I just figured out if I right click on a hex it shows the hex coords at the very top and doesn't affect any TF's I have slected. Left clicking always screwed things up for me. Duh!!
