I remember in earlier Civ games that you could hit CTRL-L to locate a city. Is there something similar in Civ IV? I can't seem to find it and it can be a royal pain to find cities on big maps.

You can do your cities by F1 and clicking on the symbol for your city. For everyone else's cities, I am also curious.

I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- NedComment

I don't think that'll bring the map to center on the city. That's what I'm looking for.Originally posted by Blaupanzer View PostYou can do your cities by F1 and clicking on the symbol for your city.

If you're hunting for your own city, do what Blau said and then activate one of the defenders. When you exit the screen it'll be centered on the city.I'm consitently stupid- Japher

That is a good idea. I'll do that. Still miss the CTRL-L feature though.Originally posted by Theben View PostFrye: I know Big Vinnie said he was giving me the kiss of death, but I still say he was gay.

Especially tough to find a foreign city in those civs where a lot of the cities have similar (and sometimes unprounceable based on the spelling) names. But using the cultural button on the zoomed out screen I can at least narrow the search area to the parent civ.

The espionage screen has a list with the rival civs cities, but I don't know if you can center the map on one of them using that list ( I never tried it).I watched you fall. I think I pushed.Comment
