We had a list of ideas for civ3, I think it's time for a list of improvements for civ3. That is of course if anyone still believes these so called "FIRAXIANS" are still reading this now that they see the money rolling in.
The interface in Civ3 is terrible. Every time the city display is opened, all units are activated and must individually be "fortified." By the end game, this becomes a pain. The interface in smac and smacx is elegant. In the patch make the Civ 3 interface more like the one in smac.
By the way, you can get get a headache when the the Greek and Japanese civs 'are next to each other with the similar colors.
To those of you who prefer the smac interface, please support a change to it in civ3. Thanks.
Intefrace is not terrible, in fact it is quite good. So much of it transparent, it speeds things up considerably. Just a small tweak or two, (like selecting units in a stack in order) it will be one of the best game interfaces designed.
If you dont want those units show up, turn them off from prefs.
If you dont want to turn them off, double click where the unit isnt, that is on the outer edges of the city.
