Make the units easier to be seen when they are selected #5161

Describe what you would like changed, and why.

The selection indicators, and the waypoints. They make the units harder to see when they're drawn on screen a lot. Especially when selecting a horde of small sized units and ordering them anything, the only thing I see is thick selection indicators and waypoints... Which is quite annoying.

Big boys can now be seen actually but still looks bad.

Describe the changes you want to propose. Include possible alternatives.

Maybe make them smaller and thinner, or make the selection indicators drawn before the unit, not after the unit texture. Or add a setting about adjusting their size and opacity. Most RTS games uses indicators that doesn't block the units textures. I want to see the units beautiful textures, not the annoying yellow-orange big weird boxes!

There isn't, but there is a unit list at the bottom right which should be able to give you an insight on what you selected? A feature to tone down the opacity or something should definitely be added though.
