Minor Annoyance
Deity
Like a lot of people when I'm building a wide empire I have many if not most cities that are only as big as the local happiness they have or are capable of having. This can sometimes be hard to keep track of. I have to look through the list of buildings in the city and add up the happiness they provide to get the limit of people it can hold before affecting empire happiness. But I'll have a lot of cities so and can't remember what the limit is for each of them so I have to add it up again every time population goes up to decide if I need to stop it.
Determining the maximum local happiness can be hard dues to things like circuses, and stone works, that aren't available for every city. Then there are religious buildings and effects and civics that add happiness to buildings. Like the follower belief asceticism, where shrines provide +1 happiness in cities with 3+ followers. I'm not even sure if that's local happiness. I think I heard it isn't.
There's a screen that shows the local happiness from each city but that's far from the city screen where you'd be looking at its population and determining if you stop growth or not. Plus it doesn't tell you if it's exceeding it or how much it could have if everything available to it was built.
So what I want it a counter on the city screen that shows the total local happiness can get from the currently built buildings so I'll know if the current population is above, below or equal to it. That would be good enough but also I'd want a count of the possible local happiness the city can get from available buildings so if I'm not at the empire wide happiness limit at the time I can let cities grow and build the required buildings while that happens.
Does anyone find it odd that this isn't already in the game?
