Unit ranges (eg attack) should be shown when holding a key and they should be more obvious

Unit attack ranges should be shown for selected units or for the unit the mouse is over if nothing is selected. It's often desirable to see the attack range of what you have selected, which is often nearly impossible if you have a lot of units. The reason this is hard is you have to zoom out to see attack ranges, then it's often impossible to highlight the right unit amid a ton of close together icons to see their ranges.

Also the range (eg attack) is only shown as a thin red circle. This should be more obvious, such as a filled in red circle or at least make the line much thicker. It's really hard to see on some maps like Fields of Isis.

Nice standalone feature requests such as these should be entered into the ticket system, otherwise they are likely to get lost by the time someone gets around to it.

Thanks Sprung, I'll try that, but it sounds like that will always show the ranges. I would like something like when you hold Shift, it shows the ranges for selected units or what you hover over. It can get pretty confusing with many units selected and showing all those circles all the time.

I guess it's easy to expand on that widget to include your suggested functionality, but I'm busy with other things now.

That's fine, it's not a big priority to have right away, just a nice to have (and hopefully easy to implement) feature.
