Feature request: villager counter based on population cost (because of Kuafus)

Age of Mythology: Retold Discussion

At the moment, if you send 1 Peasant and 1 Kuafu to gather gold, it is shown as 2 units gathering gold. With this feature, it would be shown as 4 units (since the Kuafu is worth 3 population). Gathering gold with 2 Atlantean citizens would also be 4 instead of 2 (since they are worth 2 population each).

By default, it’s easy to multiply Atlantean citizens in your head if needed; but with the Chinese it’s harder to keep track of the economic state by just looking at the villager counter (having 5 Peasants on a resource is not the same as having 5 Kuafus).

Having this feature as an option would be well appreciated.

Oh yeah, this is a no-brainer because of the different pop villagers we have now.

And they should change the score for villagers too to count pop count, not unit count. (atlanteans will never be number 1)

Exactly! :smiley:
The replay system already uses the pop count to show the amount of civilian units (for both Chinese and Atlantean), so enabling this in all areas of the game seems like a logical step.
