Okay, we've gone over all sorts of in-game control features - here's one I'm stumped on.
This, by the way, is all taking place within the actual battle-simulator, and applies to any battle, both SP Campagin, MP and Custom. Does anyone know how to group the unit icons?
I know you assign several units into a group by control-clicking and hitting "G", but can you rearrange the icons on the bottom of the screen to represent these groups?
Normally, the icons are all grouped by unit type. Cavalry, then archers, guns, monks, etc. But if I split off a skirmish group (i.e. a spear, ashigaru, an archer, and a monk) is there some way to have those icons sit together? That way I know exactly which archers are in Group A as opposed to Group B.
That would also allow us to arrange the icons in order they appear on the front lines. (example: the first two icons are the yari on the laft flank, then two archers backing them up. Then two more yari in the center of the front line, then their archer support. Then two more yari/archers representing the right flank. Cavalry moved to the last positions, as they are waiting as reserves.)
Am I making any sense?
