Display option

[Cybid]

Ok, I hope that this question has not been asked yet and I get flamed. Used the search button, but did not get any results so here it is:

Is there a way to switch on a display setting that shows me the squares controlled (i.e. harvested) by a city? I know only of the Grid (CTR+G) switch but that does not show me what I want.
It's a pain to "calculate" the distance to a new to be founded city so that squares won't overlap.

Thanks!

I don't believe there is one.

Can't believe they haven't fixed that in a patch yet - I think it's very obvious.

Does anybody have an idea how to contact them for a suggestion?

there is none, sorry but strangely, there is one for the freakin editor...


I will NEVER understand why they couldn't give us that and a alphabetically sortable city list.......

ditto: and while we are on the subject, how is that list ordered? founding city date?

Yup, it's build order. So if you capture a capital, it'll go up to 2nd on the city list.

you can also sort by shield production, $, science and happy/content pop. by clicking those cute little icons at the top.

Handy for choosing wich city to build that big shield item you need.

rangers85: that's what i thought, but when cities are razed and rebuilt, they get stuck in somewhere in the middle, neither end nor where the name was the first time round Very sucky if you have to search through 310 names for New Bangalore......

I don't use it myself and can't remember exactly where I saw it (but it must have been in the Creation & Customization section, probably in the Completed Graphics Modpacks forum), but I believe that there is a graphical mod which highlights the city radius (so you always see it). Could be I am misremembering, but I'm pretty sure I saaw it a long time ago.

well I know if you drag the mouse with the left button pressed with the settler(like the goto command), it'll show a outline of the city radius(or is it cultural?) at the stop your mouse stops. I would love to have a function where it'll display all the already established city radius tho..
