We had several provinces with out build queues last night. Some of those provinces have high-production cities, which could have been working on space ship parts. Right now, PDX is doing much of the work for us, while we have a good dozen cities cranking out tanks and mechs each turn. These tanks and mechs are also eating away at our commerce.
Also remember that each turn chat is 10 turns, so make sure the unit builds are ten turns or more. If there is a unit or improvement currently being built, please make note of it in the build queue, or else the DP will assume you want the new build queue in place. Say Ravenna (our newest city) is building a library, and you put in:
Ravenna: temple, marketplace, barracks
The DP will think that you want to override the library. Istead, do something like this:
Ravenna: Library [c], temple, marketplace, barracks
You can also put the estimated number of turns. In the queue, hold down the shift key to see the number of turns the unit/improvement will take.
