Blue Arrows - 11/16/2017 10:08:42 PM

Just installed TOAW IV

After executing the first turn (but not before it executed) there are now "blue arrows" connecting various hexes on the map. Also the game now takes a long time (several seconds) to respond to mouse clicks during my turn.

These blue arrows and slow response are present even if I load a different scenario or uninstall/reinstall the game.

During computer player turn there are no visible blue arrows and execution is fast (i.e. normal).

I suspect the two are related.

How do I remove the blue arrows?

Thanks in advance

There's a toggle button on the Reports tab that will toggle the objective tracks on or off. Turn them off.

It's a known issue, for now, clicking on that button or hitting the / key toggles them back off.

The "Blue Line" thing happened to me too and I didn't know what it was. I was totally locked up and ended up just closing down the game. No biggie because I was just goofing off but it's good to know how to get out of it if the situations repeats itself.
