Sorry, this isn't a bug but I couldn't find another thread on suggestions for improving PTW. My simple suggestion is adding the ability to queue technology research. From my experience so far in multiplayer, the science advisor automatically picks the next tech to be researched upon completing the last.

I think being able to shift-click and set a queue would help out tremendously. If you acquire a tech through trade or the great lib., then any techs in your queue just drop out and whatever's next in line gets bumped up in the queue.

Its already in the game, my friend. Just click on a tech that isn't immediately available, and the game will set up the fastest string of techs to get to that tech.

I think we're talking about different thigns here gannon. You're saying, if I want to research Literature, click on it and it will automatically queue up Alphabet and then Writing, correct?

I'm saying, what if it's 4000 b.c. and I know the techs I want to research from the beginning are 1.) Pottery 2.) Warrior Code 3.) Iron Working. There should be a way to queue those up so I don't have to reenter the research screen after every completed tech. As far as I know, you can't do this - right?

I think you hit shift and click on the tech. So you click on pottery, shift-warrior code, shift-writing. Try it, I might be wrong.

Yeah you're right. I just tried it and you can queue techs. It's such a good idea it's already in the game... :rolleyes:

Chalk this up as my 2nd tard thread of the week.
