[.85 UI] Train button confusing

from Elemental Forums

When training a unit from the city build dialogue the 'Train' button to order the unit is just above the 'Train' button to open the dialogue. I tend to press the lower button assuming I've ordered a unit instead of the button just above it. If this dialogue opened in the centre of the screen it wouldn't be an issue or if the name was changed it may also help.

This issue isn't such a big problem for the 'Build' button because you tend to place buildings on the map.

Yeah it's actually really frustrating and confusing.

I agree, there needs to be a way to obscure that original TRAIN button (the one you can't click)

Start11 - Customize the Start Menu and Taskbar in Windows 10/11.

yea the original train button should be grey'd out while the other window was open

I agree that one option is to grey out the original train button.

Another option is to allow the both 'train' buttons to select production.

If we allow this..... What's the point of having 2 buttons then? Why not just change the Name of the bottom one to say.... Units?

Yes. Maybe change the bottom button to units ...

I think everything should be in one list, like Civ.

Can you double-click on a unit to build it, just like a city building?

The hide/retire stuff is also a little confusing.
