Quick answers

I have a dilemma ... it concerns the population information of the other team's cities ...

When I open a save ... I can see the population of KISS' Jesterton adn NOT Ignoramus

:confused: Yet I have just realised, with Chamnix's screenies the situation is reversed ?!!

More importantly ... is this something that the admins should be aware of ???

I bekieve that I am patched up to the latest ... so can think of no other reason ... it also may be the reason that I could not see the cultural boarders of the other teams' cities which were hidden in the darj.
 
I have opened your turn 90 save and see what fe3333au sees: I see Jesterton's population of five, but not Ignoramus' population, although one can guess the latter. Where are the screenies that you're referencing to?
 
@ RM ... The Screenies are in the State of the Nation reports... I have gone through all of them (both Chamnix's and earlier from General_W's) presidential reports.

Here the latest and I refer to Northeastern View (3rd image)
 
The difference is that when Chamnix made the picture he was zommed out, but when you open the picture, it is not zoomed out.

@Regentman, look at the State of the Empire V thread for the screenie in question. Look at the Northeast view for the one in question.
 
I see what's happening. When you zoom out, the city's tag has to reposition itself for you to see it, and the population number happened to be on a tile that you can see. I know that it wasn't done on purpose as you were just getting information about the north. I guess we just have to write it off as "Well, it's [c3c] ." However, don't start going around the map trying to see hidden populations by zooming in and zooming out. But I feel that I don't need to say that, as M.I.A. has proven itself a very honorable team. :)

I think what Cham does it takes a picture from wide out so we can see more of the area so he has to take less pictures. Correct me if I am wrong, Oh noble leader. :worship:
 
Thanks RM ... ummm ... I have just updated the Looking Glass post 6 which is to keep track of population changes as per viewed from the map !!!

So ... ummm ... does that mean I should not use the information posted by the President as a screenie ?!!

I personally do not exploit this however if it is posted it becomes public knowledge ... so I guess as long as i do not do this myself or ask for it to be done on the grounds of revealing the population it is OK :thumbsup:
 
Or, to turn the problem on its head - this is not an exploit because anyone on any team is able to get the same info. Zooming in and out is part of the game, therefore it's not giving 'out-of-game' info. Chances are, KISS has had the same experience with some of our city pop numbers.

I'm not being nit-picky here... I'm just trying to point out that the other teams are able to do the same thing, and likely have done it. Maybe they're just not as perspicuitous as we :)
 
@Azza ... seek ye the Looking Glass ... i have all passwords and links to location ... it is right at the bottom of the 1st post :D
 
What does this mean in the trade screen ???



I assume the lighter font indicates unable to trade due to no land or sea links, etc in place.

But what does the Dyes (0 extra) mean ... is it that Dyes are a commodity that the prospective trade partner does not yet have access to and it would be probably wanted if we had more of them.

Lightly color: no trade route.
Ivory (2 extra) means: Team MIA has 3 Ivory connected; 1 for team MIA; 2 available (extre) for trade.
Resources that show are resources the team Team MIA is talking to has not connected.
 
Anyone know how General_W places Excel bits into the posts? I have a 'military production schedule' in excel that I wanted to post, but I don't know how to go about it.
 
I know how General_W works that voodoo! ;)

He takes a screenshot of the image, crops it, then uploads it using photobucket (much easier than imageshack for full size images – photobucket doesn’t do thumbnails).

Unfortunately, there's no special trick that is easier... that I know of.
