would you accept this gift on... Get a bigger avatar today!

This happened to me twice allready in my last game :
As i'm seeing who is able to give me top dollar for my techs/luxuries, i accidently gave them away
this has cost me about 4000gold allready!

Am I the only one who thinks these 2 buttons should be further apart?

This can't be to difficult to fix.
hope this interface issue is solved for PTW

I think a good solution to this is to allow the arrow keys to control the selection of responces. I dislike having to click on them, it is rather tedious and hazardous sometimes.

I don't know how many times I've accidentally almost declared war.

id like to see a pop-up window asking " are you sure you want to give away ...?" it took me awhile to realize i had to wait to see the trade option light up before hitting enter, i must have reloaded 20 games because of that ( im not a fan of reloading but i never planned on giving away any techs)

It's even worse when you build the U.N. and every 20 turns the "Would you like to hold elections" window pops up and is defaulted to YES. I've lost 2 games because I have been careless and just hit enter. Of course I don't want to hold elections because I know everyone hates me. These were my only 2 reloads ever.

The default setting on 'YES' is very annoying too, indeed.

'Are you sure you wanne buy this hospital for 1200 gold' . Click . "waits a minute, then realises there no more money to upgrade badly needed units on the front line But i do have hospital in a size 7 city .

Don't like to reload, no matter what (except for crashes offcourse, had one recently btw, first one on 1.21 )

besides the incidents happened at the end of my turn, and I diddn't feel like replaying the whole turn ( they can take awhile )

I agree, Civ3 is diffenately a "Mouse Warrior's" dream.

I rarely ever use my mouse for anything other then internet surfing really.
