Target Line Problem ?

How do I remove the target lines in the game ?

I know that in the menu you have the option to show them or not, but even with this option shut off, when playing as Yuri the target lines still show up, and I can't find any code in the rules or art to shut them off or what file I can remove so that they don't show up.

The unit movement lines are controlled by UnitActionLines= in the RA2MD.ini

I presume you mean the lines from Yuri's Psychic Sensor tho, those are controlled by PsychicDetectionRadius=.

I opened RA2MD.ini, and it's set to NO, but the lines are still there only when playing as Yuri.

Do you know if there is a graphic file like a PNG that I can remove so that they don't appear, and where this file is located ?

If you see too many of these and they aren't moving, then it's likely the units involved in the attack either can't fulfill the AI's script, or there's a pathfinding issue.

Both cases have mitigations, as in you can design the map to be more friendly to the stuck units.

As I said before these lines are created by Yuri's Psychic Sensor structure [NAPSIS] and the tag PsychicDetectionRadius=, if you disable/remove that tag the lines will go away.

That's not a bug, it's a feature.

It's what makes the Psychic Radar so useful, allowing you to foresee incoming enemy attacks. I wouldn't recommend disabling that, but rather, deal with the problem by fixing pathfinding issues and reducing attacking team sizes.
