Shattered Kingdoms

They don't show the message if they are flying.

Are you also supposed to be able to order when prone?

Yes, a feature of prone. That greatly increased the available tactics in the game.

I get this message wether the animal is prone or not, I think it is the way it is built which means some other animals are probably doing the same.

That's not the prone message...That's that horse's action, I believe.

Yes it is, it for some reason overrides the prone message is what I am bitching about. I look to see if my horse is prone and I get the same message wether it's prone or not.
