Just installed 1.07 and I do see buttons. I recomend you do the same and let us know if the problem persists.
I've just gotten v1.07 and finally it works!
I kept on staring at the damn buttons for some time, satisfied!![]()
Thanks for helping!
And of course, thanks to Our Lord, Rhye!![]()
I posted this in another thread but will ask here:
What determines whether you can or can't switch to an emerging civ during the course of a game? I know you can't switch twice, but sometimes I never get the option to switch to an emerging civ when I haven't switched yet.
Zeggy, it is just part of the gameplay, the A.I seems unable to handle a lot of barbarians and Inde's, as well as attacks from other Civs. However if you go for higher difficulty they are more likely to survive!![]()
@ MrPopov: I disagree with Greeneyedzombie, afaik it's solely dependant on the time of spawning. When a civ spawns shortly after your first one you don't get the option to switch.
@ Greeneyedzombie: I think coko was referring to AI-bonusses on higher levels, that will give better chances both against barbs and stabilitywise.
I'm pretty sure Micromegas is right, like in my last game as the Vikings I switched to the Mongols. Also my map was just Scandinavia, British Isles and Northern Continental Europe.I still think you need to be in the neighbour hood. When starting the game as the greeks, I always get an option to change to the charthagian. I never had the option to change to a far away civ, if I have not a unit close by.
There are only 3 dificulty levels. playing mostly on monarch. And I already know wich civs will collapse and when. Giving them walls greatly improves their chance of surviving a lot longer.
Edit:Micromega seems to be right. Didn't explore the map, and still got the option to switch to far away civs I never have been close to.
Sorry to shamelessly plug a post, but nobody seems to have noticed my cry for technical support in my "sup yo" thread. link.
