Default Re: On the cusp...

Personally I dont want some of those things fixed. Everything has its pros and cons.

Faster map generation leads to fuller map directory which leads to a need for the game to offer file cleanup without any chance of "oops" which leads to less features while thats getting added.

Usually "fixing" the GUI creates a game that wont share window space with other programs. That means I cant check my work screens.

Faster turn processing would get me in trouble. Im a solo player and I can see the desire but PLEASE dont speed it up. That slowness is a major feature for me. It makes sure I check the work screens, feed the pets, check on the kids, crap, and even notice that its dark and Im tired and should go to bed now before my wife kills me.
