Problems Viewing Battles in Multiplayer Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Hey folks,

Whenever I play Civ3:PTW solo it keeps the screen on battles just fine, but in multiplayer it scrolls the screen before the battle is over, and I have to scroll back to see if I won or not.

Is there some option I can set to make it hover over the battles longer? I've got all of the "show X" and "animate X" options on right now, with no luck.

How do y'all deal with this behavior?

Thanks.

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

There is an option in the preferences menu called 'do not auto-select units in multiplayer'. I think if you check this box then you will stay focused on the battles. You need to be careful when you have this checked as none of your units will auto select, you have to click on each one to make them move.

Personally I just bear the pain in the arse jumping. I make sure to have my mouse on the mini map so I can quickly jump back to the battle. Its much better that way than forgetting units.
