Are these "bugs" or part of the game?

I would probably favor a dummy wonder, but either solution would throw off all the wonder links. Someone would have to do a lot of work to straighten them out. If someone wants to do that, it would be great, but right now I don't know which would be the lesser or two evils.

Or you could just move the first wonder to last. In that case you have to fix only one wonder's GL links.

ROFL! That sure is something I'm waiting for. I think it isn't in the game because it ain't gonna happen before 3000 AD

Paul's suggestion sounds like a good idea.

[WesW]

Yeah, I guess Paul's suggestion would be the best thing to do. It would mean that you would not be warned when an AI began the Wormhole probe, but I guess this is the best thing we can do.
I will make this change for the next time I upload the text files, probably in a few weeks. In the meantime, you can change this yourselves easy enough.

Btw, the Source Code wonder, and Locutus' reply were hilarious.

I kind of misinterpreted Pauls idea originally. What I was thinking of is creating a dummy wonder and putting that as the first wonder and then moving Stonehenge to the end of the file, making that the last wonder. This way you won't screw up the links and you'd still be informed about all wonders.

Who said Borg don't have a sense of humour?

[Paul]

Actually, it seems that Wes misinterpreted my idea. What you just said is exactly what I had in mind.

hey hey hey! wait a sec ! gaya theory disables polution ? thats wrong! so why the heck do I need the Gaya controller ? techs do pass between civilizations in secs , you know ( ok not secs , years , but you know what do I mean ) . but if you say the only thing gaya cintroller is good for is the food , plz mention it !

[WesW]

Ok, guys, I have made the dummy, moved Stonehenge to the end of the line of the origial wonders, and even altered the link from Astronomy.

Dalgetti: the Gaia Controller is stronger; it removes all pollution from all civilizations, not just yours. I think it even negates the global-warming effects of nuclear attacks and space launches, but I could be mistaken on that part.
