Displaying sensor range

[Napoleon XIX (OP)]

Reading through the forums, I cannot seem to find the answer.  How does one get the game to show active ship sensor and deep space tracking station ranges?

Thanks.

For Active sensors, click the Show Active Sensor Ranges checkbox on the Sensors tab of the System Map. For passive sensors such as DSTS, click the Show Passive Sensor Ranges checkbox on the same tab and select the signature size you are trying to detect.

Ah, thanks.  Missed that tab.

I have moved on quite a bit and am now busy quelling unrest on Mars, my first manned colony.  How does one load units onto a troop transport? I can get all the way on the TG screen to choosing the units to load, but cannot actually load them.  Is it a problem with the design?

theres kind of a wonky system where when you select the command "load ground units into transport bay" another box appears that you can select the units.  That means theres two boxes on the screen with the units' names in them.  Its the centermost box.  You can't double click there either, you have to select the planet, select the command, pick the unit from the centermost box, and then hit the "add move" button.  Not too bad, just a little circuitous.
