Multiple Research skipping tech blurbs.

[lifehole]

When I queue up research, it briefly shows the tech blurb at the start of the turn, then quits 0.5 sec later. Considering the depth, amount of techs, and all that in this game, and the fact it takes 10 seconds to pull up the vast techtree, I'd like to know how to get past this problem.

I've tried fiddling with the custom settings about tech blurb popups to no avail. I figure this belongs in the bugs section, but it's just a minor problem, looking for quick help.

It is not the queuing up of research that is doing it. I don't queue techs and still sometimes I don't get the blurb to stay.

Yeah it also happens with stuff like largest civilization listings, most advanced, etc.

I have a weak theory that may explain that... I'll look into that but if I'm wrong (which I probably am) I wouldn't be sure what could be causing this. We'll see if it's what I'm thinking anyhow.

i'm having the same problem, and i would love for it to be fixed because Especially nation listings can be important to read,

Isn't it caused by having the "reduce Ai turn times" option checked? I remember only having that problem once I applied that option. That was a year ago though and I haven't tested it since then.

Minimise AI turn time works well for me. Though I am playing v33.

 

[Thunderbrd]

Well... I checked into the theory I had and confirmed that it was NOT the cause sooooo.... yeah. No idea. Could be an odd option like minimize AI turn times or something along those lines as others have suggested.

It is probably something "simple" like it has not cleared all keyboard/mouse input before it is displayed. Or it is not the last thing happening before handing control back to the player.

Seems to stop if I turn off the Quick AI turns thing. I'd prefer if it worked with that, but it's not a big deal.

Also, completely off topic, but since this is probably the last post I'll make here in a while, I'd just like to recommend streamlining/refining/optimizing the features you already have rather than adding more.
