"Undo" button?

[SomeNewGuy]

Is there some kind of "undo" button to take back your last move? I was just in a heated battle with Babylon over an important city, and would have taken it with my last two swordsmen..................... except instead of attacking the city my mouse accidentally moved down a pixel and the units ended up switching places. I just quit out of the game after that.... I mean seriously, WTH... such a waste of time and a huge letdown. So many times I've accidentally clicked the wrong space and its cost me. Is there some kind of undo button I just haven't found? It seems like there would be.

Have auto-save on every turn.

im sure something like this has happened to everyone it has me. and I wondered the exact same thing then I realised why it wouldn't work it could basically be used as a cheat. eg you step forward with a unit see there military undo and move somewhere else.

it opens up the ability to cheat I'm not saying you would but you know.

As mentioned above, auto-save. You can set it to every turn, but even at the default, which is every 5 (at least for me) you can catch back up pretty quick. An "undo" button? No thanks.....

Yup, auto-save every turn, and then you just have to put up with the long load.

Save every turn and then just reload it when something bad happens.

 

[Shurdus]

You can also hit quicksave often, and reload if something like this happens.

or the other tactic is to concentrate when at war, i must admit though it has happend to me

An undo button would be awesome! But only if using it was much quicker than reloading and if implementing it didn't slow down the game any.
You would think that just taking back the last action should be quick and easy compared to reloading the entire turn.

As mentioned above if a feature like this were added it could be easily exploited for scouting and such. When I make a unit movement mistake I just chalk it up to the unit getting lost / disoriented. It's happened many times in history so I just leave it as is and play on through the error.

This isn't MS Word though, this is a game we're talking about. It's probably harder to implement than you think, and it'd be used in a lot of situations besides misclicks.
