Description

As title says. Is it a bad idea to see the line of sight and/or friendly, enemy, or all units in the battlefield always, or show the information when select it? I know it shows my units' movement, LOS and arcs when I pick the unit when I can either move/attack, but I can't see it other than that specific time.... I can see the range of the weapons by select the unit and choose the weapon it has, friend or foe(if it is allowed to do so), but LOS is only visible when you pick the unit, and movement is only visible when on the movement phase....

You can use the LOS Tool. Hold CTRL click on the first unit or hex then while holding CTRL click on the hex or unit and it will tell you the LOS and other info.

From the red hex to the top Akuma. image

I should add if you follow the same steps but use the ALT key you'll get the ruler tool.

Well, that's only a point to a point , not shows entire hex that the unit(or hex) has LOS to.
