Default Willy Meter....for Newbs

I have a feature request. I believe it was Steel Panthers III that had the "Willy Meter", where units would have a '*' next to readiness if the unit became visible by another unseen enemy unit. It would be a neat training feature to see this in WinSPWW2 as a Newb preference (that can be turned off or on). It would be excellent for training...it is still one of those things I still do not have a firm handle on after a dozen PBEM games. Obviously it could be used as a cheat so maybe if only one player is using the feature it would pop a warning for the other player.

Currently the best way I have found to see how and when a units of varying sizes and types become visible in different terrain and visibility settings is to play myself with both sides set to Human and run tests.
