Ingame decision log

[jomaxro]

An interesting idea.

@klaus

A citizen stops crafting an item (e.g. due to requirements not being met).

While this is not per se logged, you can see when an item is not being crafted by looking at the crafter’s queue.

@klaus

A citizen finds no path to a building or mining site.

This would definitely be useful! Not sure a “log” is needed, but changing the color of the zone, or something similar might suffice. Right now, mining zones are yellow, buildings are semi-transparent…maybe a red tint or the like could be used to indicate there is an issue. Buildings would need more info then mining, though, as there might be resources missing, or something more than just a pathing issue.
Something like this idea might be helpful for building:

Viewing list of remaining building materials for a build

Is there any way to see what remaining items are needed to complete a build? I know you can bring up the list of all items that a build uses by double clicking on the building, but I can’t seem to find a way to see just what is left to build. Sometimes buildings are left unfinished and I can’t figure out what item is missing. Also, is there any way in the crafting screens to see a list of what is needed to make for a building?
