a request for identifying different units of the same mercs

[Guest]

I don't know if this has been asked before, but a lot of mods that I play utilizes multiple units of the same merc, sometimes I will have 3 or 4 units of artillery or snipers on the screen and they all look the same. I know I can use the mouse to pick the units on screen but I'd like to use hotkeys. However with all the artillery units looking the same, I often pick the wrong unit and end up too late bringing it to a particular location. Is it possible in future updates to have different units of the same mercs showing up in different colors (with corresponding colors at the hotkeys) or have visible numbers attached to them (this might be better) so I won't hit the wrong number again?

That's a good idea. I'll see if I can add an option to display a floating number above the mercs.

This feature is included in the latest 1.82 update. Activate it through the Options menu (turn on "Hotkey UI").
