Please try it out and let me know what you think.

Note: The addition of this feature doesn't mean I decided not to do anything about the rogue 'behind' command, I just didn't get around to it yet.

Overall I like it. Just one thing though, I was only able to check some city guard formations so I didn't want to become an outlaw. It doesn't allow us to attack certain positions in that formation though, right? ie f1, f2, f3...

Awesome addition. One suggestion is to flip it so it's read the same way as the non-targetted info command, just to make it more intuitive to use.

It is decent, but ultimately not that useful. Need a way to target ranks in the enemy formation. Otherwise, this is just a glance command with a GUI.

I prefer the way it is. I find it far more intuitive as is, since if I am coming to do battle with this group, i see the enemy group formation in relation to my own formation with the front lines head to head.
And yes, awesome addition!

That was the idea. This is you looking at the other group, so the entire formation is rotated 180 degrees.

Agreed with the caveat that now you can see the other two columns.

As i mentioned in the opening post, still going to do a back subcommand of some sort for rogues. Not going to add number.name anywhere due to its encouragement of illegal scripts.
