Hello,

Just fought my first few battles. It's CC, more or less as I remembered! One thing that really irks me: the line of sight tool is very low contrast and hard to see. Why don't you do it just like in Steel Divisions 2? That tool works exactly the same as in CC, but much easier to read (SD2 is an amazing game by the way, hopefully the devs play it a bit and copy some of the interface innovations!)

Cheers,
Benji

i agree, should be a user setting for this, apparently there's a way to mod the file but i dont know how.

Agree more contrast is needed.

Right? It's such an important tool! More contrast and a nice outline. And while we're at it: if you put the LoS over a unit, it should also show effective firing range. Let's hope the shiny new engine can make it happen :)
