PO Mode Issues - 12/1/2017 5:05:58 PM

Howdy y'all,
1.) I don't believe this is pilot error, but I can't seem to find the "Manuel" setting on the
Formation dialog anywhere (while in PO Mode). In TOAW 3 it was in the "General Orders" section.
2.) Unable to drag waypoints.

3.) This is unrelated to PO Mode, but wow their is a lot of positional issues. The dimensions
are off for button clicks and drags. The situation seems to resolve itself on the initial screen, but persists
in the game itself.

Any help would be appreciated.

With regards to question 1:

It's the Formations OOB box and the yellow circle encloses the manual override checkboxes.

I think...

Sure enough... Clear as mud in the manual.

Thanks so much Phoenix100...

With regards to your question 2:

2.) Unable to drag waypoints.

Directly dragging on the map with the mouse doesn't work here either.

What you can do is right-click on an Objective > select Remove this objective > right-click on the new hex where you want to place it.
This will move the objective (with the same sequence number) to the new hex and sequence (connect) them in the same order.
This is like interactive dragging :)

Edit:
Make sure you are in PO Mode (F12 or the PO Mode button) to display the objectives to do this.
If you only click on the PO Tracks button you'll see the tracks (arrows) but not the objectives.

Clearly the above still hasn't been implemented.
I can live with that... however, I can no longer remove Objective 1 on any formation.
Has this feature been enhanced away?
