When you hover over a unit or tech before you start building it, it gives a helpful description. I wish that the description would also appear in the queue (if you hover over the item in queue) after you queue the unit or tech.
Sometimes I forget what the benefit, advantage, or specialization of the thing I’m building is and the only way to see it again is to cancel the item from queue and view it in the building’s production panel again. Or consult the tech tree, which I’d never do.
This is important. Sometimes I want to re-prioritize queued productions based on something that happened on the battlefield, or you want to make a shift in strategy for whatever reason, or your resources are low and you need to juggle things around. I need to know exactly what I have queued up (descriptions) so I can figure out what I want to delete from queue.
Here, I hover over Arson and it gives the benefit info:
But then when I hover over the item in the building’s queue, it gives zero info. It just says to click it to remove it from the queue. Not very helpful:
Instead, I want it to tell me, “Infantry +2 attack vs. buildings” like it did before I queued it.
Similarly, with units, I can’t always keep track of what advantages they have. Before building a unit, I see all this helpful info in my Extended Tooltip. Like, for Spearman, it is “anti-cavalry, strong vs. mounted units, especially elephants. Weak vs. Ranged soldiers and infantry”:
But once I start building it, it’s just, “Click to stop creating this unit” in the queue ![]()
