Use fight command
Quoted for retarded... regardless of whether it works or not... I will stand up and say "NO! I WILL NOT ORDER UNITS TO FIGHT WRECKS!"
Okay. Rename the button from
Fight
to
Go over there and do something useful while you're headed that way, please. And pick up around here, it's a mess!

anyways the wrecks need to stay within our view once we see them
so we can do stuff to them

And once more, I would like to give a firm pat on the back to the really smart dude who made this change, all while accounting for flying comm wrecks. What makes this whole fucking change even more golden, is that you can still issue an area reclaim and the widget will count it, just look for the magic 2500 number.

Will revert this if possible next version as it doesn't sound like an improvement imo, or at least a case of "not broken, didn't need fixing".

test it before it goes live or it's your fault if it's broken.

If the new behaviour was added as a modoption and the existing behaviour untouched that wouldn't have been an issue :roll:

the behavior was added because somewhere along the line there were some inconsistent changes. this wouldn't have happened if you tested the intermediate builds or one of the two rcs... anyway, please test if it works and let's be done with it.

i plan to add some ghost features facility btw, but it probably won't happen in time for 80.3.

I plan to make a widget 'ghost wrecks' but its a bit more frickly than I hoped (if you want correct rotation of the wrecks). But I think I get it finished in the next days...
BTW: I think that only enemy wrecks are invisible without LOS and allied wrecks not. Tobi said its a known bug if I got it right.

Works. You see all wreckages again (mod unchanged, default value for featureVisibility).

Not needed with next release.

Confirmed by code and testing. :)
