Region & Region Overview UI

[poesel71]

There are some things that would make playing a bit smoother wrt building.

If I play out of the 'Region Overview' ledger (which is convenient for bigger empires) I look for regions with open slots that need work to do. Clicking on that region opens it in the lower panel.
The information I am missing now is what did I build last? That is something I need to know to remember where that region is headed to.
Now I need to close the ledger or move it away and move the mouse over the icon on the map and then reopen the ledger.

If the region panel had that information that would be helpful. One idea would be to put the buildings icon as b/w icon (maybe slightly shrunk) below the hammer icon (theres space).


Another thing in the region panel is the problem when you get a lot of building. Scrolling through them is very inconvenient and time consuming. Three ideas that make that a bit easier. Maybe one of them can be considered.
1) on a mouse over you get a pop up window with all buildings. That could use the whole screen width as it will close if you move the mouse away
2) have the icons overlap so we can see more of them (and make the borders smaller)
3) for options with two groups (food/health & mil/infra) split the line and scoll each group seperately. Like there were actually two small lists, one for health and one for food. A click on the scrolling arrow would scroll both of them.
That way you can see twice as many icons in the same time for the same amount of clicks.

(just a side note to help you reduce the amount of clicks : press spacebar once you've selected a region to directly jump to the next idle construction region. That way you don't have to manually check all the region/province overviews to see which ones are idle, it helps quite a lot !)

THE SPACE BAR FUNCTION IS HUGE!

Wow - extremely useful tip. That saves a lot of time - thanks!
(though I still would like to have overlapping building icons )
