Practical Unit Icons + (Update!)

"What does this mod change?"

*Automatic Coloring of on-map unit types. -ex: Armor is Orange, Mechanized is Blue (Enemies units included!)

*Colored custom division icons to choose from to further designate your units.

*A more practical on-map unit counter that makes the org and strength bars bigger

*Colored battalions in division designer

I have adjusted the Organization Bar and Strength Bar to take up a much larger section of the division counter, as the vanilla game’s counters leave too much space unused.

The on-map icons and division template colors were taken from a much older built of Amine Alkaline’s ‘Better Mechanics : Combat’, and modified the way I see fit. I made the on-map unit icons tint colors depending on whether they are;

Motorized/Mechanized = Blue Armor = Orange Infantry = Default

ENEMY Unit icons are also affected by this, so you can clearly see where their armored forces are located !!!

*** IF ICONS DONT APPEAR *** There are also 20+ new colored custom division icons to choose from, they do require the 'Anniversary Pack' DLC to be active due to Paradox gatekeeping more division icons behind it. This DLC is included with the game, so you own it, but it may be disabled by default as of the latest update.
