I'll get a screenshot of this as soon as it happens again but sometimes the IFF icons such as the ECM eyeball, or the enemy/friendly triangle will sometimes appear as white unless you press your IFF button to display friendly info.

I've noticed a small issue: when friendly mechs are under friendly ECM coverage, I can see the little 'Eye' icon that indicates that they're under the ECM blanket. However the eye is white (instead of blue. As an unrelated note, when the eye is blue, it's the old shade and doesn't match the new colour scheme for friendly units). If I move my crosshairs over the affected mech the eye will turn blue (again, the old blue, not the new blue).

This issue occurs most often when the 'Q' key is pressed to bring up information about allied units, but I've also noticed it when the 'Q' key is not pressed.

So far I've only seen this when I am NOT the mech carrying the ECM protecting them. I have not been able to try and reproduce this with an-ECM capable mech (I don't own one ATM), but I will if I get the chance.

Seen this lots of times.

Also notice the eye turn red for a very brief instant over a friendly unit before turning blue.

The new friendly unit color is terrible:
- bad contrast on the new ?slightly transparent black? text-background
- hard to see the new blue on the on the minimap

I think it's just a tryout!?

btw.: love the new shiny mech-painting! ^^
