Global warming
anybody think we need a better way of telling how much gloabal warming we have in a game?

How about a metre?
Or a more drastic sun, like it changes to lots of other colours, from black, to blue, to red, to yellow, to white!

There is already a 3 color sun. The colors are exactly backwards from what I'd have done, but they do show different levels (white->yellow->red). You aren't really polluting till you get the red sun.

What we really need is a NUCLEAR WINTER for all those people who just LOVE to drop nukes all over the map. THAT would be reality.

Yeah, Coracle, that Nuclear Winter could counteract the Global Warming and let me reach new heights of productivity.

Nuclear winter sounds cool! But after a while it would return to normal anyway, but most people would be dead!

I voted leave it like it is. There is a 3 color sun, that shows about how many tiles are gonna degrade.

No sun = No Global Warming
White = Maybe a tile will flip, maybe not
Yellowish = 1 or more tiles will flip
Red = Every time I got here we are talking 10+ tiles

Kind of a moot point to show a further progression after Red, you world is gonna suck.

When I say 10+ tiles, I mean a turn. I've had a few games where there was nothing left to degrade It was pretty much all desert.

What we really need is a way to turn pollution and global warming off during MP play. The game is long enough and this just might shorten it enough to make MP more enjoyable.
