As is, my computer's a little slow doing full turns in the early stages of an 18-person single-player game. And it's a fairly new (2 years) laptop. I shudder to think what hosting a all-eras game would look like. As is, I'm scaling back on mine.

One neat note - Did you know that now, as the computer hosts turns, it'll show you each individual step, in order, of how it's resolving each turn? The manual actually documents the hosting schedule in terms of what events happen when as well. VERY neat stuff.

That happens in map generation as well. "Drawing stuff".

For some reason, the schedule in map generation reminds me of those TV shows where you'd watch a guy paint mountains for you. "Adding color"; "Adding forests"; "Drawing stuff".

Good times.
