Hi there, lost the manual, could someone please inform me which are the non essential techs for the Industrial Era along with the automated worker commands

Cheers
Matt

Depends on what you mean by "non-essential" are you refering to dead end techs or tech's that are not worth as much as the rest. As for the worker commands the most useful are:

A- Automate worker
Shift + A - Automate, no change to existing improvements
Shift + P - Automate, Clean up pollution
Shift + F- Clear Forests
Shift + J- Clear Jungle
Shift + I- Automate, this city only

If you need to see the tech tree you can get it by hitting the F6 key.

"Non-essential techs" (techs not needed to advance to the next era) are marked with a small slashed circle mark on the F6 screen.

Thanks for that fellas!!

Need to get UN before anyone else you see (hence need to get to Modern era first) as the whole world hates me for having an army of German slaves building my railways....

Woudnt like a UN vote, certainly not for a few centuries anyway!
