Problem with Foreign Advisor screen, help needed
I've just got CIV3, and I want to know from more experienced players about an obvious problem with the Foreign Advisor screen. I am playing about 11 civs on a large map, and after 3000 years I finally met the Iroquois, who gave me contact with the Chinese, Japanese and Indians.
But when I go to the Foreign Advisor, I only see the faces of the Chinese and Japanese leaders, so I can only get info on the Chinese and Japanese. I can't see what treaties the Indians or Iroqois have, the Foreign advisor only tells me that the Chinese and Japanese are in awe of my culture without telling me what the others think, and I cannot speak to the Iroquois and Indians from this screen.
My questions:
1. How can I see the treaties a civ has with others if they don't appear on this screen?
2. Will this problem be fixed in the patch? Until this is fixed, 9 civs or more is not fully playable.

From the readme (again...):
When playing a game with more than 8 civilizations, you can assign specific civilizations to specific slots on the foreign advisor. Shift+Right-Click on the slot you want to change and select the civilization.

Dammit, and I was looking in the manual and the civilopedia ... but the readme was out of sight, out of mind. 
Now I can get on with the really important things ... like playing CIV3. Thanks...

Time for a mod, I think ...
If we can resurrect Elvis as the Domestic Advisor, we can surely resurrect Ms. Dark, Mysterious and Stunning as the Foreign Advisor.

I feel the athmosphe of Civ3 really suffers because of the characterless advisors (sorry, Sid), as well as the absence of wonder movies. Both were clearly victims of lack of money/time.
