I am happy with the participation rate and all the further comments given on the various forum threads.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The winning answer in the Possible DLC Poll was quite a surprise&#8230; I would have thought majority would have preferred post-apocalyptic low tech mayhem above more trade &amp; politics :) But I am taking note of this. And heck&#8230; one does not exclude the other, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The winning answers in the Improvements Poll do however require some clarification to make sure I understand this direction well. So &#8220;interface improvements&#8221; and &#8220;AI quality&#8221; got to the top of the request list with approx 20% and 15% of the vote. Especially &#8220;interface improvements&#8221; is a bit vaguely formulated so I am posting a follow-up poll here with as many aspects of the UI\/UX I could think of, among which you can choose up to 2 answers that need the most work in your opinion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"polls-21\" class=\"wp-polls\">\n\t<form id=\"polls_form_21\" class=\"wp-polls-form\" action=\"\/index.php\" method=\"post\">\n\t\t<p style=\"display: none;\"><input type=\"hidden\" id=\"poll_21_nonce\" name=\"wp-polls-nonce\" value=\"d1d377146f\" \/><\/p>\n\t\t<p style=\"display: none;\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"poll_id\" value=\"21\" \/><\/p>\n\t\t<p style=\"display: none;\"><input type=\"hidden\" id=\"poll_multiple_ans_21\" name=\"poll_multiple_ans_21\" value=\"2\" \/><\/p>\n\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>So exactly which interface improvements would be most welcome (up to 2 answers allowed)?<\/strong><\/p><div id=\"polls-21-ans\" class=\"wp-polls-ans\"><ul class=\"wp-polls-ul\">\n\t\t<li><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"poll-answer-114\" name=\"poll_21\" value=\"114\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-114\">Less waiting on processing and AI between turns, or give me at least something to do here<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<li><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"poll-answer-115\" name=\"poll_21\" value=\"115\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-115\">More consistent and accurate logging of why certain variables\/stats change<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<li><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"poll-answer-116\" name=\"poll_21\" value=\"116\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-116\">Give me better more intuitive tools to analyze why my Supply Network or Economy is not functioning as it should<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<li><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"poll-answer-117\" name=\"poll_21\" value=\"117\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-117\">Much more different hex\/map\/unit layers needed to filter key information<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<li><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"poll-answer-118\" name=\"poll_21\" value=\"118\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-118\">Mouse-overs (and info blocks) should be consistently and luxuriously applied on every window and screen (I should have less need to open my manual or find another window\/report for related info)<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<li><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"poll-answer-119\" name=\"poll_21\" value=\"119\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-119\">Using the \"Call Leader\" functionality is too slow.
