Minimap color/dot selection Issues

There's a bit of an annoying color change on minimap dots that occurs when you are white and you select units - namely, none at all. Its also a problem when your opponent is white, you select your units, and suddenly you're a little confused because you cant tell who is who - i think OTA might have had this problem too, not sure...


anyway, my feature request - instead of dots changing color, make the expand and contract slightly (in a repeated animation) when you have them selected, so you know those are yours?

That's right. I think it used to put a white circle around the dot instead but only of the unit the mouse was over - not of all selected units.

Yep - here's a screenie:

Here I have a commander and lots of dragon eye's. I have selected all units (hence you can see the commanders radar ring) but the only unit that is highlighted is the centre dragon eye which I currently have the mouse hovering over.

O thats right

curse my memory X-D


Well, I think that too would be a huge imporvement over current system, even if dilating dots arent a possibility...
