How do I see who built a wonder?

[Beerchugger]

I thought when you go to the “info screen” and “top 5 cities/wonders” it was supposed to show you who build a wonder under the “wonder” tab. But I find it’s nearly always completely blank there.

The other day it was full with wonders and what cities they were in, but suddenly it disappeared. Is something bugged with my game? I run Bug mod; could that cause it to be there sometimes and not others?

It only shows the location if you've seen the city where it was built. (If you've never seen Otisburg, how would you know what was in Otisburg?)

On my current game for example I have seen all cities in the world but the area where wonders show is still blank.

And on games where this screen does actually work if a wonder was built in a city I have not seen yet it still shows the wonder but the city area says something like "built in undiscovered city".

Does anyone else have a blank area under the “top 5 cities/wonders” screen?

Nope. Can you post a screenshot?

You can often work out what wonders a city has by zooming in on it. The Collossus is an easy example.

The info screen says if a wonder is built but if you've never seen the city then it says "unknown" for the city and civ. If you're not getting that from the info screen then something is borked.

I think if you press one of the Function keys (F7 or around there) or the buttons in the top right corner and see the Demographics, you can see it on a tab in that.

Another possible thing: There are buttons above the list to show world wonders, national wonders, and projects. If you clicked on the projects button you are not likely to see much until late in the game since there are not many projects and they are all in the modern era (at least in regular BtS, anyway) - the projects list might not even have a city column (I don't remember if it does or not).

I have tested your ideas and I believe the problem relates to using the "No Espionage" setting in custom games.

When it’s on the wonder tab works all of the time for me. When it’s clicked off it’s on some of the time and not others. So I think I finally figured it out, thanks for the help!
