[Annoyance] A resource is now in your ZOC! But I can't build on it yet!

February 9, 2012 3:07:05 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums


If I don't have the tech, why prompt me to build?  Why not prompt me just as I finish researching it?  Or prompt me that it is now in my ZOC and do I want to research this tech now or put it in my research queue?

Right now it prompts me once and then goes silent.  30 turns later when I do have the tech, I have to hunt them down/remember that the place is in my ZOC.  If this occurs early enough in the game, it is hidden inside the borders of my city.  

Please give a second message please!

Thanks, keep up the good work!

Agreed.  I just researched mounted warfare, and then had to go search my territory to find the wild horses to build on.  Annoying.  It might not be as bad if unbuilt resources had the pickaxe icon over them and built resources didn't, but the way it is now some (but not all) of those pickaxe icons remain even if the resource is built.
