Devs: Why on earth did yall move the construction queue?

[All Hail Comrade Joe]

Construction is the #1 thing you do in game. Moving it another click away is asinine. SoI is otherwise great but PLEASE move the construction queue back to easy access.

[D-Black Catto]

yeah now I have to do two clicks to see what privates are constructing and one more click to see foreign investments, and then when I go to building micromanagment oh boi all the foreign buildings are lumped together with my own lmaaaaao

Click on Buildings on the left then instead of there being a building tab there is now an arrow up at the top of the buildings window that says go to construction queue. Its still one click from the buildings page to get there. There is a hotkey 'G' that you can press to open it with the keyboard after you are on the Buildings page. If you want to use keyboard you can press F3 to open the buildings window then 'G' to open the building queue.

Is menu's withing menus's, it's menuception.

[John Hadley]

Just remember F3-G and it is always at your fingertips in far less time than it would have taken you to click the on the button on the left then click on the button at the top. You could even make a mouse button that activates the keyboard hotkey with one of your mouse's extra buttons if you have a fancy mouse. Everything in this game is menus within menus, but the keyboard hotkeys do help so thankfully the construction queue does have one.

[John Hadley]

Oh you know you can also get there by just hitting B apparently. I noticed this while I was in the keyboard hotkey setup.

My greatest issue with the change was these differences in the building tab.

As you point out construction is by far the #1 thing a player does, and it's position on that tab was near optimal before. On top of putting the building registry to crowd the buildings list, and an 'all' tab that nobody really wants or needs when they can go to the respective tab and scroll through less clutter.

Starting to think AI is making the entire game when we keep redoing systems over and over and over.

Definitely an annoying change! I did key bind the "B" to get to the construction queue to make it easier for me to access but seems such an unnecessary annoyance for players.

[TasteDasRainbow]

Yeah if I was able to combine the old building tabs back in with the new content I'd be extremely happy. There is just so much useless clutter like the 'all' tab or the 'building registry' which could be packed away with the census key.

I'd prefer to have my most used data/buttons back in the same place again without all the new unnecessary things with it.
