This is how [right-click] works in civ iv too.
Not sure about your installation, but for me right-click in Civ4 never does anything except open a context menu. Granted, the context menu never had anything except Go To unless you right-clicked a city, but you wouldn't send a unit across the map with a single click.
Maybe Civ3 spoiled me or something, but I catch myself trying to right-click -> view Civilopedia entry on units even when that no longer works in Civ4.
isndl --> You play in final version??
I have no idea. I can try to get a version number if I play again, but I don't know what the latest version is either. It's definitely running Steam though, as shift-tab opened up the overlay.
When you had half a dozen or so menus open, could you move them around so they don't obscure one another?
I never tried moving them, but given the size of the windows (they're roughly comparable to how big the menus are in Civ4) I doubt they're designed to move.
It appears that civ V options are just as well hidden an undiscoverable as in civ 4, yay.
I still quite curious if there is a diplomacy screen, every one of the forum users here who have gone to events to play the game can't find one, and thats a little worrying.
I wouldn't say Civ4's options are that undiscoverable - I found it easy to toggle resource bubble notifications the first time I played, and I didn't even know the feature existed beforehand
. If I had to guess, it seems like the art direction for the UI makes the buttons less distinct (no colors to make it stand out) and so you're likely to not notice one. Not really a problem after learning the game, but it's a little harder on a new player.
There is a Diplomacy window (F4), but I find it lacking. It's split roughly 60-40 with Civilizations on the left and City-States on the right, and it really only shows available resources to trade with each Civ. I didn't notice any existing deals in that window, but I didn't look very closely (just one more turn!
).
