First, yes, I checked that awesome Guide to the Commander Mode (Basic) thread, but the questions I have aren't covered there.
-------------------------------------
Okay, I have started playing Commander for the first time a few days ago, and I have been having great fun. I do have a couple of more questions about the interface though.
First, what do those green check marks and red X's mean? (And often times the box is blank altogether.) Here's what I am referring to:
I don't have a SS, but like I stated above, there can also be a red X there, too.
Second, is there any way to unselect all squads?
Third, often I have had SL's talk to me (via VOIP) asking for something ("give me a supply drop," "scan the area in front of us," etc.), but sometimes none of the VOIP icons light up, so I have no idea who is asking for it. Does this happen to anyone else? (And with all the chatter on the battlefield ["enemy spotted," "Ammo! Here!," etc., I can't tell by flashing icons there either.)
Fourth, and maybe this is related to my first question, is there anyway to tell in the squad list (shown in pics above) who has asked for orders? I have noticed that their minimap icons will show an exclamation point, but often a number of SL's are grouped together and their icons overlap, so it's sometimes hard to tell on the battle screen.
