Load Ship

from GalCiv3 Forums

When I get the pop-up to load a ship I would like to know which one.

Colonizers I put few people on them and my Transports are stuffed.

could you add the ability to say what ship is being loaded with pop.

One way to verify this is, If the transports, colonizers is currently inside a planet + Shipdock + Starbase. That is the unloaded one.

 

Disembarking them will cause them to request the load people.

 

Those ones that aren't inside the above list = already loaded.

I requested this months ago, instead of saying Load Ship, how about Load Colony and Load Transport?

This doesn't solve the issue.  The issue is at the beginning of the turn when you completed construction of a colony ship and a transport on the same turn you don't know which one the game is asking you to load.  I also agree a simple message change to load colony ship or load transport would work.

On another note when your shipyard asks you what to build next, it would be great to be able to see the mini-map and know where the ship yard is.

OOh yeah, i understand now. When that happens and I wasn't sure of what ship it's asking me to load, I cancel it and then check the ship to find out. Telling you which ship it is definitely would be a improvement.
