Just a quick (ergonomy) question

Hi everyone,

Discovered this game some monthes ago and hugely enjoyed what I am very tempted to consider as civ on steroid and the series guilty pleasure (its really hard to consider that it released before civ3 and is still much more complex).
Also, huge micromanagement binge. Maybe a bit too much.

Something quite trifling is spoiling my fun though.

I would like to know if it is possible to cancel the autocentering on the active unit after leaving a city screen.
I am perusing a factions cities after infiltration but EVERY single coming out is an annoying deportation of my screen.

I have tinkered with the options but did not find a fix (if there is any).

Would someone be so kind as to indicate me if there is a a way to get around that?

Thank you very much

 

You can play with game settings. Click Menu, Game, and Advanced Settings. Try "Don't center on units with orders." or "Zoom-to-base doesn't re-center map." I just move all of my units first and then check out the enemy bases.

 

Ive already tried the options.

Yes I guess I have to resort to move them first and check second...

The loading on boats is not very trasparent and cities don't display all the attached units after a certain number...
This game really needs some kind of (light) overhaul.

Anyway thanks for the reply.

 

I am upping this thread in order to avoid creating a new one.

I have another quick question:
I was setting up a probe assault based on an upgrade from foil to the cruiser chassis but the game refused to let me do it, indicating that no superior prototype existed.
I made sure to build the lvl2 prototype before any upgrade attempt. I looked on the wiki article but did not see anything of any value.

So I am here begging for somebody to be kind enough to enlighten me

Thanks

 

First off, it's better to make that new thread with a new, applicable topic than to necro/change.

Second, you can't upgrade between chassis types. If it's a foil before, it can only be a foil after, anything ELSE can be changed but not that.
