BtS Unaltered Gameplay Mod

Civ4lerts & MoreCiv4lerts

by Dr. Elmer Jiggle (heavily modified by EmperorFool)

This mod implements on screen alerts for a variety of in-game events (such as city growth, the availability of new trade opportunities and many others).
The alerts will not reveal information that would otherwise be unavailable. They are simply intended to call the player's attention to situations as they arise without requiring tedious scanning of the advisor screens on each turn.
The alert messages are integrated with the existing event log. Like those messages, a notification is displayed on screen for a short period of time. Messages that have been cleared from the screen can be recalled by opening the event log (Ctrl+Tab). When appropriate, clicking on a message brings the camera focus to the site of the event.


Instructions

Alerts can be enabled in the Alerts tab of the BUG Options Screen (Alt+Ctrl+O), by selecting the 'Enable Civ4lerts' checkbox.

After this, the player can enable or disable each alert, by simply checking the corresponding entry.
