Reference-list for (undocumented) interface features

[Finarfin]

What does a lightning bolt icon on a city mean?

[Jaybe]

Lightning bolt means you have a power plant for the factory in the city.

Well, did you click or double-click? You're saying two different things.

I was pretty sure single-clicking the center tile didn't turn on "Manage citizens". I don't know if double-clicking does or not.

I'll specifically check for this when I get home tonight.

Double-click. Sorry if that was confusing.

I'm a software tester by profession. I get antsy when people aren't technical enough with me. Sorry.

I'll look tonight and see if I'm noticing the same thing as you.

Is there any way to skip a unit that you want to move later that turn (as opposed to waitung until next turn)?

I know you can just go select it manually, but I would like to just add it to the end of the queue so it cycles back around and asks me again for orders at the end of my turn.

Best example: empty transport waiting for unit load, transport gets queued up before unit does, I dont want to go find all the units, I just want to cycle through them and put them on the transport, then have it ask me at the end of the turn what I want to do with the transport.

'W' = wait
It may come back to that unit sooner than you would like, but it works in general.

I think it's undocumented so far: you can press F12 (to bring up the civilopedia) even in the worldbuilder!

edit: added the highlight

CyberShy, don't you like my last tip? Or have you missed it?

:P

I'm pretty sure the civilopedia shortcut is displayed at the bottom left when you mouse over the button for it.

[Fidel]

how does one name units?

[TheHateMale]

Click on some point in the bottom left frame - there should be a tooltip when your cursor is in the right position.
