Tracking smoke in Vassal isn't any harder than with a dead-tree game. Still the point of ID's is noted. I was going to give OBA markers ID's with the next module update. On-board units are more complicated, because the counter is busier and a little irregular.

Matt Brown did something like that with his WaS Vassal games. I don't know how I would work it into PG Uber.
... More and more, people around the world are coming to realize that the world is flat! Winking
