Great People Bug

[BretP]

I have found a bug (or glitch) with the great people. I play just a regular game on the epic timetable.

1. I was able to get a golden age by using two great prophets, and only one of them was sacrificed.
2. Everytime my capitol gets a great person the point counter in ALL cities changes. For example, my second city has never produced a great person becuase it is getting less GP points than my Capitol, and the total needed in city two keeps changing to match the point total in city one. City 2 needs 900 GP points now to produce its first GP.

Neither of these is a bug.

1: You only need 1 Great Person for your first Golden Age in BTS. So it only used the other prophet.

2: It has been like this always. This is why a single GP farm city is more efficient.

I remeber getting GPs in more than one city previously. With the counter changing for each city everytime a great person shows up, makes it impossible for other cities to have them. The AI seems to get them in numerous cities far more frequently than I do. I thought each city had its own GP point counter that was independant from other cities. To have them all share makes no sense.

It only resets the counter in the city the GP was created in, the number of GP Points needed to get the next GP is then increased in all cities. It has always worked this way.
