Default Motorcycle Sidecar Icons

All motorcycle sidecar units (for all nations) use the same icon.
The sidecar icon used is Icon0010.49; Icon0010.50; or Icon0010.51 from the ‘feld-grey German’ collage.

The current sidecar icons are generic, so if sidecars from opposing nations meet on the battlefield they are indistinguishable. I would like to be able to change the sidecar icons to match their infantry colours.

In case it’s possible to change some or all units to use icons from their own collage, I searched through the OOB (using search terms ‘motor’ and ‘MC’) and believe I found all ‘non-grey’ units that are using grey sidecars.

Default Re: Motorcycle Sidecar Icons

I guess I really shouldn't be surprised by the nits players are willing to pick in these games but some days......... well, I'll just leave that alone for now but some days it gets very, very old.

Imagine.... we've been doing this for 12 years and nobody has had an issue with this in all that time until now. Hmmmm who's MC combination is that ? Well if you don't already have the ID flags on right clicking on a unit will instantly tell you who's side it's on. Simple no ?

I will put this info on the list and one day if I feel frisky I might consider adding the other Icons to the master Icon list and change the nearly 100 units that currently use Icon 404.
