Select soldier on higher level

(1/2) > >>

Sims:
Hi,

i play 2.5-dev.

when a soldier detect an alien that stands, let's say on level 3. I click on the "detect" button on the number. The map goes to level 3. Then when i want to select another soldier the square is light blue. I can't select the soldier. When i go to lever on that this soldier stands i can select him. Is that normal? It is a bit annoying to go to lower level to select a soldier( alien disappears he stands on a hill or roof)  and i must go again to level 3 to aim at the alien.

EDIT:

This happens above level 3. on 1,2 it works. I think the height difference becomes too big to attach the soldier ...

H-Hour:
It's not ideal, but it's expected. The game can't always tell exactly which tile you are trying to select. It could be improved, but not sure how easy such a thing would be.

krilain:
To solve this (I've also encountered the case) I suggest eventually an easy thing such as assigning the space-bar (for instance) to cycle over the stages -->

* Hit space bar
* If no soldier selected, reselect the last one
* If one soldier selected, cycle over the level : level + 1 until levelmax reached, then level = levelminOk, that would be a sort of fix, and even a playable tool.

ShipIt:
I cannot remember having this problem back in 2.4. Even the early stages of 2.5-dev did not show this behaviour iirc.

I am with Sims here, this is annoying. I will test it and if this was not the case in 2.4, it should not be the case in 2.5 either.

Sims:
I have noticed that the selection depends on the angle of the view ...
