Some questions answered

[Elucidus]

Well I got it this afternoon. One of the questions I hadn't seen answered was the city radius vs national border. Your city starts with only the radius immediately surrounding. But as I have just started I don't know how quickly it spreads. If there are any questions that haven't been ansered yet, let me know and I'll see what I can do. To my European Bretheren whom were not so lucky (and those who could not get it right off the bat). I am sorry, but I will try and keep you guys informed as I know I would want to be.

How does it run on your system so far? Is there a big delay when the computer players have their turn as reported by Gamespot?

And WHY ARE YOU READING THIS YOU SHOULD BE PLAYING!!

[Elucidus]

So far there hasn't been any delays, even with the autosaves.

Specs-
PIII-850
1,280MB RAM (PC-100)
HDD- ATA100
ATI All-in-Wonder 128 (32MB)
Sound Blaster Live!

Something I noticed about the editor, I only see an "ADD" button on the Governments Screen and the Culture Screen. I haven't figured out if there is a way to add other things yet.


I'll keep you posted

I thought I saw in one of the posts that you could add techs and units via the editor but don't go looking for that now play the game!!!

On a side note:
You know what I would like to see is someone play their first game on Diety and tell us all how quickly they get their butts kicked!

[Elucidus]

I'm playing on regeant the third difficulty setting. Didn't know which was equal to "prince". Also noticed that grassland with the white dots are in fact the shield producing grasslands.

[Elucidus]

I cleared a forest and got 10 Shield...couldn't read what else it said it went by too fast. It also left the resource, "game," in the square.

I know not all of this may be new, but hey.

You gain +1 vision from mountains and hills.

City border and national border spread at 10 culture

I found a luxury resource, but it wasn't in my field of view. It was one tile out of it. I don't know if this is an ability of the Scout or not.

1.2GB RAM? No wonder its fast...

[Elucidus]

Hey I found a good deal okay.

Well I figured out why I saw that resource. You can see hills and mountains one tile further than you can see other tiles.

Also they just did a "whose the most powerful" and I ain't even on the list.

Sounds like you need to spend less time posting and more time Civing or else your going to get your buttocks kicked!

PS: I am thankful for the posting but you must realize that your dedication to us has left the door open for the AI to take advantage!

That's got to be a mistake though right? I've never heard of anyone with >512 and even if they did it'd be 1024MB ( or 2048 )

[Elucidus]

Well it is not like it is real time or anything, so no big deal. Also I am a pacifist/technologist so I am alway at the bottom of the power curve at the beginning. Although I met two other civs. One has one city but a nice sized army and the other has three cities and is growing like crazy. Although, I had three techs they didn't... goody huts and expansionist.

[Simpleton]

Hey!! Have you spawned any leaders yet or seen the computer with any?
I'd be interested to see how powerful or useful they really are!!

[Frito]

I'd guess he ment 128MB

Dude, they make 512MB chips of RAM now, and some motherboards have 4 slots, that makes 2048, and it wouldnt even cost you that much to get 2048MB, its a very good investment.
