If noticed that when you play as coms and place more than one waypoint you do not know which one the enemy went past.

... and how do you repair a bridge? Engineer I would guess, with wrench, but it does not work.

Can any one direct me to the correct thread or help? :? :

You cannot repair bridges once they are destroyed and in terms of the waypoints, i actually thought the text message says which waypoint has enemys close by.

Yeah I know. Was playing insurgent com and placed 3 way points. The message I got was "You can only access this console through the command centre." That does not help much. Screen just goes black and the message appears and then returns to command screen.

It's becauz teh talibans dont have UAV so they have the "informants" that notify the CO if 6 ppl or + or a vehicle passed by... afaik

This is what I see each time enemy pass a waypoint, while I'm in the hut with the command screen open. O yes... this happens while playing as an Insurgent commander. Now if I have three waypoints then how do I know which one was triggered? Is there a Dev that can help?

You get a message which says that a group of enemys has been spotted at waypoint "A/B/C/D/...".
It's in the upper left corner of the screen and has the same colour like the cache messages, as far as I remember. So it actually doesn't show up in the command screen.

Unfortunately I don't have a screenshot, because I'm not playing com very often.
