a really good thing to have would be a refresh button on the buildings window ---------------------here--VVVVVVV
just to explain a bit
everything in this game is about timing
say you send silver from each city to a single destination city to fill up its cave
you might have 20 or 30 incoming trades all arriving within a few seconds
what happens now is you open the cave use all your silver in the warehouse
15k silver comes in and you have to wait quite a few seconds for the available silver in the cave slider to update so you can use that 15k silver
if another 15k silver comes in before the cave window is updated (it can take 30 seconds or so) your warehouse will overflow
what i am doing now to get around this sluggishness is close the window and then open it again just to get the available silver slider to reset
if you have a refresh button the cave window will be refreshed within a couple of seconds and you can use that 15k silver before the next 15k load arrives
same thing happens if you are sending resources to build buildings
the senate display is very slow to update after resources come in
having the refresh button will just speed up that update and allow you to stick buildings in the queue before the warehouse is overflowed
it could also be used in the command overview
even with a fast connection when you have 40 or so attacks/supports/spies all at once the updates is quite lazy
a refresh button will just speed up that display a bit as the window won't be updated slowly along with the rest of the screen commands coming from the server it will be done now
think of it as a GIVE ME IT NOW button if you like
in fact it could be used on all windows
