    The round button that highlight your units green and foes red, its simply not there. And it annoying and confusing, please help.

    I agree it's a very helpful tool to have and its absence is somewhat frustrating, but it isn't a bug. It's been intentionally removed.

    EDIT: Ignore what I said about it having been removed on purpose, apparently that bit of info is incorrect. Thanks Wulfburk.

    No, it wasnt intentionally removed.

    It was removed by accident in all of the culture UI's and the devs dont really know how to bring it back.
    Then, as throngs of his enemies bore down upon him and one of his followers said, "They are making at thee, O King," "Who else, pray," said Antigonus, "should be their mark? But Demetrius will come to my aid." This was his hope to the last, and to the last he kept watching eagerly for his son; then a whole cloud of javelins were let fly at him and he fell.

    It was removed accidentally when porting UIs across from EB1, but I see very little appetite to bring it back. It runs counter to our aim of a more realistic battle experience and a less cluttered interface, one of the reasons banners and arrows are removed by default.

    Hmm i use it all the time normally, so i have to get use to it
    But in terms of realism, the pause button is the most unrealistic
    Then again, in a real army one would have officers, who make sure each unit does as ordered.
    And in TW pause is to make up for that.

    BUT. If possible i would LOVE to get a fix or a hint to fix it myself

    Oh well it was fun to try out the mod. Bummer there is no highlight. Kinda ruins the game for me.
