commands fx gl.UnitShape doesn't fade

[Bluestone]

the fith argument 'opaque' controls the alpha, but it seems the only choices are true -> 1.0 alpha, and false -> 0.5 alpha

they are meants to fade with the same alpha as the lines do (as the now ineffectual gl.Color call immediately above them suggests, and i failed to persuade them to obey gl.Blending)

Which widget should I test/debug this with in your opinion?

[Bluestone]

gui_commands_fx

give a few build orders, and then queue move orders after it - as you give a move order it will show the queued buildings, which should fade gently away (and do in 100) but now don't

[beherith]

Is gui_commands_fx supposed to show buildings queued up by allies? If not, is that feature planned/existing in another widget?

[beherith]

Anyhow, [5041] is a step in the right direction. Alpha is adjastable by

[Bluestone]

Commands fx should already show build orders by allies, in the same way as all other orders given by allies.

(also: controlling the alpha so as it never falls below a given value while the unit is selected, doesn't work because the gl.UnitShape version differs from the version rendered in the engines own build q).
