Indicate direction to watch with pointer.

[ruarz 10]

Say you want your sniper to watch over an enemy camp while the rest of your team advances to clear it. It would be far easier to indicate the area to watch with the pointer than with cardinal directions (N, S, E, W etc). Just an idea.

I know you could do this in ArmA 1, and I'm sure you can still do it in ArmA 2/OA but I forgot. Let me do some searching...

Select your units then press left alt + left mouse button to watch direction.

niiiiiice :D thanks. this game understates itself. there is so much cool stuff it can do and it doesn't even show it off. someone needs to write a guide of 100 things you didn't know you could do in Arma 2 and OA :)
