You know the "Flash own,ally or enemy units" button? Some mods for whatever reason remove that useful function, how can I bring it back?

Does the mod really remove it or does it just use the minimalized HUD? You can always switch that off.
No it straight up does not work on some mods, its not the minimal ui.
I do remember a faulty mtw2.lnt file that does that. Or a messed up battle.sd file. Last not least there is this section in descr_ui_colur_db that might be invalidated:
Foremost however is this: does anything happen when you hover over the faction symbol in battle, like a tooltip? If it does and nothing happens when you click it then your unit makers have been switched off by the mod's setting. It's this setting in the [game] section that needs to be set to zero: 'disable_arrow_markers'. Add it to your mod's CFG file to rectify:Code:own_marker_flash 255, 0, 255, 0 ally_marker_flash 255, 0, 0, 255 enemy_marker_flash 255, 255, 0, 0
Code:[game] disable_arrow_marker = 0
Most mods have already a [game] section their CFG file in which case you just add the arrow line - I do hope you did not create a second one for the entry? And it needs to be in the mod you are playing, the main CFG file resets manual edits.
And this?: "does anything happen when you hover over the faction symbol in battle, like a tooltip?"
If you can't find descr_ui_colur_db then you don't have to worry about it being faulty.
Yes I actually checked that, there is only one [game] section, here is how it looks now.
[game]
disable_arrow_marker = 0
unlimited_men_on_battlefield = 1
no_campaign_battle_time_limit = 0
unit_size = normal
advisor_verbosity = 0
;event_cutscenes = 0Sorry, I do get the ""Flash own,ally or enemy units" ", when I hover over the button.And this?: "does anything happen when you hover over the faction symbol in battle, like a tooltip?"
