Just a thought, but have you tried pressing "T" to see the terrain squares. Perhaps the pollution is on the city square itself making it harder to recognize the pollution.

Let me simplify the whole thing for everyone. First lets start off with a table showing how years from 4000BC to 2000AD are divided up into game turns depending upon the level you play. *** (Bear in mind there will be an additional 20 turns @ 1 year per turn for years 2001-2020AD...

Finished game in AD940 My score was 1540 too!!! (154%) Population 3,180,000 15 cities 22 items researched/stolen Had 5 Wonders: * Pyramids * Colussus * Lighthouse (Captured Zulu city) * Great Wall * Sun Tzu's War Academy Got Monarchy 3100BC Order of Victories. * Got rid of Sioux First...

I always thought this was 320,000,000. In latest game I played, it was 320,000,000 from 1990 through 2018. Then in 2019 it suddenly went to 5,020,000. Seems odd. Didn't have any knock on effects with final score of 15002 and 1950% on Deity Level!!!

Here's my top 10. What's yours? 1) Pyramids 2) Leonardo's Workshop 3) Magellan's Expedition 4) United Nations 5) Statue of Liberty 6) Hoover Dam 7) Womans Sufferage 8) Seti Program 9) Michelangelos Chapel 10) Eiffel Tower (Only against AI)

At start of game, when no roads are yet built, it takes too long to establish long trade routes by land. Daisy chaining cargo ships, offloading cargo from one ship to the next at sea is the way to go. This way you can move cargo right across the map in a single turn. You can also use this tactic...

When I attack I always try any have the majority of my enemies cities conquered prior to advent of Guerilla Warfare. I don't like to have to be attacking extra units all the time. To circumvent this, I always surround a city and then move in for the attack. That way when I capture a city there...

To be more precise... City walls have inherent cost of 1. If you have Adam Smith Trading Company, then your covered.

Hit CTRL-O and look at title in Game Options panel. If you have a Hex editor check out byte at 10th offset of a save game, starting at zero (ie 0,1,2, ... 9,10) 27 : Conflicts in Civilization or lower 28 : Fantastic Worlds (2.7.81) 2C : Multiplayer Gold 31 : Test of Time (I'm on 2.42 a old...

Leaves Fighters/Stealth fighters suspended in mid air at end of turn. There's no airbase or anything. <IMG SRC="http://forums.civfanatics.com/ubb/angry.gif" border=0> BTW: Tradiing Maps. There is a logic to this 1) Both parties must have researched Map Making 2) Opponent must be an...

You can see what version you are on by hitting CTRL-O to bring up the games options screen. It's in the heading. I have a save game that causes the program to crash every time I hit "G" to move any of my Engineers. Can someone else try this out for me to see if it's something peculiar to my pc...

It's not something crazy, like you nuked a city out of existence, or you nuked units not in any city limits, so pollution is on the map but not within one of your cities is it?

Anyone still running Civ to on version 2.42 Custom 08-Oct-96. (Version is in Header for Game Options) I'd like to see if this "NoMoreHeap" occurs for someone else trying to use "G" on an engineer from this save game I have. I'm trying to figure out whether or not this is something peculiar to my PC.

It may be the -90 you are seeing is because at the start of the turn there were 9 squares of pollution. Check it out by saving game and reloading autosave version and counting squares with pollution. Additionally, pollution is cumulative. If you left one square alone with pollution, over a...
