City and Palace view scenario game

[Nanuk]

I have two questions on this topic.

The first being if there is a way to enable the city and palace views in a scenario game that is modded.

The second question is why is this disabled? I've heard everything from "Devs didn't finish art for expansion content" to "stop the game from crashing due to missing pcx files" and "to prevent uglifying your game with modded content appearing on top of each other." Is there an official reason?

Pretty sure Palace View is available, but only by the hotkey (f11 is it?).

Yeah all those answers has been said. I think they did not want to go through the extra work to make everything work. They already made a easy to use editor, and probably didnt think something like that was needed for mods. Modding was a bigger priority in civ4 where they allowed scripting.

Well you can't enable city view in the main scenarios but one time when I have normal civ 3 on cd it had it but when I got gold I don't as what It know it's hardcoded
