Civ 3 Changes Inflate your Upload Space

I think that there should be an option in the foreign diplomacy an option that can show how updated your map is to a particular civilization. When you trade maps with someone that should be a record of it on the game. Foir example:

I trade maps with Persia

We have Persisa Map Updated 1634 a.d.

Any comments?

What happened the the transform command? I think that they should be that back.

I do not see the usefulness of it...

Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

Where did you get transfer from?

The TRANSFORM command was used by engineers in Civ2 to terraform land, ie change plains to grasslands etc.

Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

I believe that the people at Firaxis thought it was too powerful to be able to change Mountains into the more productive Hills or Deserts into the more productive Plains. Thus, the ability to transfom terrain was removed, and workers are now limited to adding and removing Forests from flat lands.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

That transform command was basically terraforming, and it seems like Firaxis has a game design decision not to include terraforming in Civ 3.
