    I believe you just keep it 'open' and once a player joins, that player will fill that spot.

    How do you use outposts?

    The outposts were meant for multiplayer. The only use I can see over using a unit is if there's no hill/mountain around and you don't have to pay upkeep for it. Other than that I find them still useless.

    Is this Illogical?

    I guess the player is just special and if an ai defeats him, that ai should get a prize, or a few thousand points. Also, I'm sure most players wouldn't want to sit there and wait while the AI plays till 2050, therefore having it end the game by conquest may not be logical, it seems reasonable...

    goverments with more commerce and PRODUCTION???

    I believe it is a miswording of the civpedia. The "increased production" that democracy has is the increased worker speed. They work at a 50% faster pace.

    Publishing the Scenery

    Rodrigo, we're not exactly sure what you mean by publish it. Do you mean you want to take a screenshot of your map, or do you want to create your own map? If this isn't what you want, maybe you could think of a different word other than publish, so that we could help you better.

    Smoke Gets In My Eyes

    Yes, when you get 'We Love the King Day' in a city, fireworks shoot off at a constant interval. And I hope this smoke is the multi-colored fireworks and not just gray smoke hehe.

    Inter-turn Trading

    I believe that it does not trade techs while it is the player's turn any longer.

    Is this a cheat ?

    That is how I've always pre-built wonders. I would make it so they would both complete on the same turn, that way assuring that I would get the wonder.

    Foreign Advisor Oddity

    I noticed that the FA advisor in the Advisors screen only tells you the best unit of a certain if you've already seen it, but in the trade window, he tells you the best unit that the civ has regardless of whether or not you've seen it. I know it's not a game breaking thing, but I wonder if the...

    Did Sid have a big part in the making of civ3? I know it says Sid Meier's Civ3, but I was wondering if they just bought the name off of him and made the game or what.

    Slow science in Civ III

    Yes, but the AI is ahead of him on tech. I don't know if by the end of the game he meant hitting the year 2050 or some other victory, but he never got to mobile warfare, which is odd. I've played on chieftain and I've always been extremely far ahead in tech and can get every tech before the...

    Slow science in Civ III

    As Strider said, I believe it is the number of cities that you have that is the problem.

    Capping progress?

    Yea, I wasn't exactly sure if it worked, but I offered it anyways. I didn't think of just deleting the techs :X

    Capping progress?

    You could set a tech prerequisite for a certain section of an age that is not yet available, such as making Gunpowder require Rocketry, therefore not allowing it to be researched. That way, tech research would stop at Gunpowder. I don't know if making a tech require a tech that is available...

    Question about Airforce

    I believe that you can modify the bombardment units to do lethal bombardment with the editor. I know you can do this with PTW, not sure with regular civ3 though.

    age of the world

    3billion years old would make there be more mountains and hills. 4billion would be the medium settings of that, and 5billion would make there be less mountains and hills.

    Collosseum after Cathedral?

    Like Roland said, content citizen improvements stack. A cathedral(3) + a colleseum(2) would make 5 unhappy citizens content. If you throw in the temple(1) that would make it 6. No, building a hydro plant after a coal plant wouldn't be stupid because of the reduction in pollution.
