I have now played a lot of SMAC since i purchased the game last wednesday. I find it a very nice civ-style game and i enjoy the enhancements to the original civilization. I only have one serious complaint about the game ( gfx and other tweaks and small bugs aside ). I think the auto-formers are vitually useless. As far as i can see the feature was put in to lighten the load of terraforming for the player. But since the AI of the formers is very bad, this feature is worthless. I would really like to see firaxis add terraforming-cues in a patch or some add-on. If you could cue up the terraforming orders for a former, it would save a lot of time and virtually eliminate the terraforming manotony. Imagine ordering your former to 'shift-ctrl-s' 10 squares ... just like that. That would be some 100 turns of frustrating and boring terraforming work done in one turn ! Thanx for reading my little 'rant' ... Kraut |
