Reference-list for (undocumented) interface features

[Robert]

I've added the 'flying camera' option in the 'interface' section.

Three questions:

1) How does one tell where a wonder is built? In Alpha Centauri, one would click on the wonder and a red dot would show where the wonder was.

2) Is there a way to see a garrison list for cities?

3) How does one save and load a queue list?

Why are you bumping a thread that has been stickied?

Go to your Info page and look in the section called Top 5 Cities/Wonders.

3) How does one save and load a queue list?

Press CTRL and a number key while in city view to save. Press the number key to load.

Willem, thanks.

The Queue bit will be quite usefull. But, obviously, the game is quite lacking if one cannot locate a specific wonder, world or national, better than the top five city list. Ditto the garrison list of cities, the reason being that one is often looking for specific units or unit types to move, or to check garrisons for other reasons.

Isn't the garrison list simplay along the bottom of the city view in the city screen? There's a long line of units that are currently in this city, is that what you mean?

What I was looking for is a list of cities and their garrisons.

[khines]

I think the previous versions of Civ had a list of cities and their garrisons. The city name was listed and next to it was all the units within the city.
IIRC, it was the military adviser that you went to in order to see this.
I don't know if IV has this feature.

[padillah]

Nope. All you get out of this Military Advisor is a bunch of troops strewn about. You an't select them you don't know if they are garrisoned in a city or just standing there, no help at all.

Yeah. Right. I understand you are suffering.

Back on topic...

When you cllick on your flag, you open the capitol city view. After patch 1.61, I suppose.

I think it's a new one...
