	No palace upgrades Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Is there a switch that turns off the palace upgrade feature? It hasn't worked in my last several games, even into the Modern age. Could it be a v. 1.21f bug? Or maybe my people just don't like me?

what is the palace-upgrade supposed to be???

The city that builds a palace will become the capital.
This could have quite an impact on your civ, so be carefull

well, actually sometimes that doesn't work.

I wish you could turn off the "The people love you...". It interferes with the game and I always click X and don't do it. It's a nice feature, but it should be toggable.

It's nice eye-candy and it doesn't bother me that much. But to have it optional is a good idea. Especially in MP it might be disturbing.

In my version it's F11 that brings up the palace screen, but no upgrades have been available. Moving the cursor around doesn't make the phantom palace parts appear for selection, the way it used to work.

BTW, Tassadar, it's "he."

Well, there's alway the possibility
you are the all-time worst player and
don't deserve any palace upgrades :

I've had the people love me so much they decided to complete the palace for me in one turn, but alas! it was in the modern age.

I've had games where my palace remained a stone well into the 2050's So they hate me? No wines for them!

That must be the answer! My people hate me! Forget the fact that I have the highest score--the people just don't like the way I run the empire!

W4r, I've never gotten more than two upgrades at one time.

I would do a fresh reinstall, but the hassle isn't worth it. And I'm hoping Cave and Garden magazine will run an article on me.

Don't worry about it! As someone mentioned, it's just eye-candy. Whether your Palace improves or not makes absolutely no difference in the game. And from what I've seen, it's pretty arbitrary whether your citizens decide to make improvements or not. I've had games where I've been way ahead of all the other civs, but my palace is really sucks. Then in other games my empire will be sheer crap, but I'll have a really elaborate palace in no time. If I had my way, I'd just turrn that off altogether.

Ditto, purple.

I haven't had any Palace upgrades since 1.21f. Not that it bothers me much though.

But then it could be taht I am a bad leader too!

Not having the palace doesn't bother me. What bothers me is that something isn't performing the way it's supposed to. Is it a bug, or have I done something that turns off this feature?

I think it's a v. 1.21f bug.

I get Palace upgrades with 1.21f all the time. Maybe thr people hate you...

Seriously though, perhaps it is a bug that only occurs with the German version of the game.

I wish mine would go away like that! Sometimes I will change the culture architecture every click and make this horrid looking structure just to make things different - kind of like the purple and green house down the street. (Almost every neighborhood has one, or one similar.)

Ta-daaaa!

Playing last night, I was a couple of techs into the Modern Era (researching Computers), I got my first upgrade!

It was 1788 and I had already wiped out three AI civs and in 1st place in pop and area, among other categories.

The interesting thing was that I received three upgrades, not just one, as if to make up for lost time, I suppose.

So I suppose there's no bug, but I wish someone (Soren?) would give us some information about the trigger. It's not an earth-shaking issue, but it would be nice to know.

I think a certain percentage of your pop has to be happy. I'm not sure though. I think I read it somewhere here.
