	Demographics in SLIC or random events Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Just checked some of the SLIC documentation (all in fact) at http://www4.activision.com/games/civilization/

i found that one could make some random events if you want to and probably something like the demographics in civ 2.

There are functions to rank alot of stuff, check http://www4.activision.com/games/ci...n/slicfunc.html

The amount of trade, military strenght, cities (all, space and undersea), trade routes, science, gold, amount of land, population.
Just search for the word "rank" and you will find the stuff.

Is there any market for a popup window that pops up at 2% change every turn and displays this info? I don´t really know if i can do it but i should.

it wouldn´t be goodlooking but who cares really?

Or do you want to be able to access this all the time? I havn´t really got a clue how to implement a button somewhere, but I guess it would be easier to make it appear each 25th turn or so or with a certain % each turn.

What should be shown in it? All civs? Your civ only or just those allied or what?

I guess someone else that has programmed more with c++ could do this faster than me but I can try at least

Wow that's a great idea if possible. I have implemented it in my SLIC wishlist (see Modifying DOM's MOD thread).
