Summary0028233: Unit visibility
DescriptionI have a hard time locating units, especially when they are not mine or the active unit. They blend into the background too well. Having your units pop out more would help me. Deeper outline, some sort of aura, I don't know.

I found myself frequently using map view simply to find where my own androids were, due to the low visibility of them in many cases.

Agreed, this is an issue. I have an idea for it.

Thanks!

* Unit visibility is dramatically better for player units, which were the only ones easy to lose.
** Several people mentioned this, and in truth I was also having this trouble, but ignoring the feeling and just playing past it. Always a bad idea as a designer, but it happens to all of us at times.
** At any rate, there's an icon that shows if the unit is ready to act, or out of AP, and the color of the selected-unit gimbal above their head also now reflects the same thing.
** Also, the bulk android stances now always show on both the map and the streets view. No idea what I was thinking with making them not. I was losing those guys even more.
