Viewing city borders
Hi all,
I'm new to Civ3 - got it about 2 wks ago as a gift and have lost an ABSURD amount of sleep time since then. Great game. Have one question though which I think would make my game play much more enjoyable - is there any way of viewing several city borders at once? I'd like to do this in order to better plan my city locations. I'm thinking of something like the grid which you can enable.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help.

Yes it would be a great thing to have, like in civ2.

..or in SMAC/SMAC/X. I always have "show base gird" on. IN Civ3 I have too many wasted tiles.

That was a great patch to Civ2 wasn't it? CTRL G and work it out isn't so good.

Use CTRL-G which shows a full screen grid (toggles on and off). It doesn't show a city-by-city grid, but rather a full screen grid, but after a few games at most you will probably have a handle on how the "Fat X" of a city radius looks on the full-screen grid.

Hello!
Just want to make sure, but that fat-x border of each city doesn't get past that 2-square in either direction, right?

Right. If it grew past that, it wouldn't be Civ...
