    Faced with the problem of notation units when zooming review. As it turned out all units of the same type indicated by the same (can not be distinguished engineer Custom interceptor).
    Cost engineers make the letter "E" on the icon. And introduce the notation does not prevent unit types.

    I have read and re-read your post several times, yet I still don't know what you're trying to say.

    Could you try re-phrasing it?

    I'll have a go at translating...

    I think OP is pissed off he can't see which units are what when he zooms in and the strategic icons dissapear.

    If that's the case, then there's a setting for that. :)

    My guess is that he is having trouble distinguishing between Fabrication units and other units within the same class when you are zoomed out and see the icons.

    I must admit, it wasn't until I went and had a closer look that I noticed that each unit had a slightly different symbol in the centre of the icon, and even then I still found it quite hard to tell them apart.

    Quite often I lose track of where my fabbers are, and while I often use the hotkey to see if there are any idle fabbers, any tips on how to quickly spot where they all are would be handy.

    My guess is he is predicting the end of the world that he saw from the top of the pyramid, he swears it on his tiara.
