You see the battle outcome in the lower left corner of the screen before the graphic battle is done. Is there a fix on this available? If not, can someone make it?

I think it actually didn't show the results, until after the little units danced, before one of the patches...
But anyway, I imagine there's some kind of tweak you can pull off in Python... If so, the function-call that displays the actual battle results shouldn't be too hard to find; and once you do, it's probably just a matter of cutting those few lines of code, and pasting them down below whatever code calls for the function that makes all the unit animations and stuff run. At least, it shouldn't be much more complex than that, I'd imagine.
Of course, I'm liable to imagine some pretty inaccurate things, considering I've never really done anything with Python, outside of merging some mods. For all I know, one may have to wait for the SDK to change it...

Seriously though, I actually like that, because after a while even the animations give away the outcome - there are only few patterns of battle and I can tell 8 out 10 times who's going to loose. This way, I just look at the corner see the outcome and then enjoy the battle, or maybe mutter curses under my breath on the other civ.

anyone else have an issue with it somtimes not zooming into the battle? I have it set to zoom to battle, but it seems to randomly not zoom in.
probably should look into tech support on this... hmmm..
Cheers!

If you aren't getting the animation maybe it's because you added new units and didn't add them to the formations file.
Oh and BlazeRed, I think there is no zoom if it is the AI that initiates the battle. If this happens when you start one then IDK what could be causing it.
