I guess than that wonders work, even on water. Still "coast" did not work for me

Actually the pins help a lot albeit the UI is pretty buggy (enter after set just ignores the text label) Also if it were not only a pin, but real planning tool showing the prospective adjacency bonuses for districts/wonders e.t.c it would be a really great tool.

Answering to self & everybody Coast(water) cannot be part of the national park Roads do not influence national park creation

Are there any constraints on Roads: If yes how do i remove them? Water: No charming level in tooltip or overlay I have a spot in mind, but don't want to make any investment and find out it's not working. The other contstraints in this thread (Diamond on head, one city) are met. Sorry but i...

So you can't detect if a unit is killed and you also can't detect how much health the unit has lost after fight? As far as i can remember the partisan rally thing still works. I'm just trying to understand the implications.

Is this issue solved by Firaxis by now, or is Civup_Options.sql still the way to set quick combat on or off ?

Correction, I have found a city where i can build it. The other cities cannot, although all of them have public school and some also the observatory. I cannot say which is which because of the city screen wonder bug which disables the right panel for everything except city focus switch. EDIT...

The research lab cannot be built although i have researched Plastics. Perhaps civpedia is updated, but not the building's in game entry? Will post back if i can build it after researching other stuff.

When i used it i could counter the effect (not being able to enter a city) by using 'm' on the keyboard and then left click the city. Can you confirm that ? A different thing that happened then is that i had a strange movement range blue border which did not seem to relate with the actual...

I think that a range promotion to 4 should be available straight away or as 2nd promotion, but initially 3 would be enough for a strong knight. Also the knight might profit fom a late (4th?) city promotion which removes the city penalty.

You know what: Try Immortal. Seriously. I had the same feeling on Emperor -that you can build everything and win. Just try an immortal post latest patch. It is a race against a competent strategic AI who has goals and spends money towards it (pre patch he just accumulated his gold potential).

Well, i disagree with the idea that Stacks of Doom is part of what makes civ an empire building game. On the contrary i'd say that 1UPT puts the nessesary army size in relation to your overall size.Creating Chokepoints was essential in every civ, but now you actually can estimate your needs...

Could you elaborate a bit? I don't really see what new genre 1UPT or hex-tiles create. It's still turn based strategy and doing away with stacks of doom is what a lot of people (= not all of them) wished for. I get a bit the feeling that you define Civ IV as a genre in itself. Obviously having...

Well the first 2 attempts were on the civ5 threads. But in this thread i had only one candidate. This was funny indeed.

Yes, i agree that 50$ were overpriced in the beginning, but i bought it for 14 almost a year before g&k. So I share the view that the game was released too soon. Still i think they made up for the mistake with g&k. It would be nice to have a price schema where you get the game either for 15 or...
