Hi guys. I searched around for an answer to this and didn't have much luck . I'd be your biggest pal if you could help me out.
Here is the situation. Me and my buddy are crazy for playing Civ 4 Complete hot seat. Here is the problem. Either him or me, throughout the game, will not be able to view the combat that happens after our turn (i.e AI initiated combat.) Whether we can or not depends on whether we play as Player 1 or Player 2.
Just so I'm being super clear at what is going on I'll re-describe everything as plain as I can. Okay so you are surrounded by computer controlled troops. You go 'end turn'. Then -- if it worked -- you would then be able to watch the computer attack you, and the computer moves.
If I'm playing as the first possible player (i.e it's my computer name in the game setup screen, the top slot, which in my case is HomeComp, ) then I do NOT get to see the computer combat after my turn. It just immediately goes to my my buddy's turn and I can't get to see what happened. However, for my buddy, say he is playing as the second slot player in the game setup screen, everything works just fine for him: he gets to see the computer moves after his turn and everything.
I have 'show enemy moves' selected in the options screen and a fully updated game.
This is a pretty big deal because it isn't nearly as dramatic to just end your turn then get just find out the after math of the battle the next turn, instead of seeing each combat happen.
I don't get it! Any work arounds or solutions would be really appreciated thank you for reading.
Edit: Geez I just thought of why this is now. I guess it is because the computer moves happen after the second player goes, and the screen is on the second players territory when player 2 ends the turn. But its early game in our current game, so he doesn't even have my territory on the map yet...would there any way for us to both see the computer moves? Like for him to see the computer moves on his turf and then maybe the 'camera' / 'view' switches to my turf so that I can see what happened?
