[.92][UI Suggestion] Deselect housing after placement

July 21, 2010 2:11:20 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

With housing now being the only multiple build in a city it would be helpful if the house/hut deselected itself after placement. A few times I've accidentally clicked twice.

I actually often like to build a row of houses (especially after city growth). So i vote against this proposal.

You can simply click on that "X" in the queue of the improvements that you planned to build. Than the extra house will be removed from the queue and you get your resources back. Alternatively, when deleting a construction site with the demolish tool you also get your resources back.

I think the OP is right. However you could hold shift down to place multiple buildings of the same type without having to select it each time.

I didn't think you got back all your resources. How about pushing shift or control to keep it selected. That is pretty stardard UI now-a-days for using multiples.

EDIT...

Snap. Beat me by 30 seconds.

That would work for me.
