people's empire of rome?!

Hi, @seregadushka   I agree that the vanilla training system has some issues, and even some behaviors that may feel like bugs, although perhaps for somewhat different reasons than the ones you mentioned. In many RTS games (including some very famous, successful ones that are still widely played today) it is normal for the player to pay attention to unit production. In fact, many of those games do not even have an auto-queue feature like the one that exists in 0 A.D. As for whether the auto-queue should automatically resume once resources become available again, I think that falls more into the area of design decisions. Personally, I find it difficult to consider the current behavior a bug. However, I could imagine having an option in the settings that allows the auto-queue to remain active and automatically resume production once the required resources are available again. What I do consider a real issue in the current system is the way units are assigned to production buildings. At the moment, when you order units from a group of barracks, the system does not prioritize barracks that are idle or less occupied. As a result, it is quite common for new units to be added to barracks that already have long queues, while others remain completely unused. This often leads to unnecessarily long production queues and an inefficient distribution of unit training. And you end up going through your barracks one by one, trying to find which one ended up with a huge production queue and which ones were left idle. In fact, there is currently a PR in progress in the repository that aims to address exactly this problem. The idea is to prioritize the least occupied barracks when assigning newly trained units. I hope to finish it in time for it to be included in the next version of the game.   You don't have to rely only on the mouse. You can use control groups to select all your barracks with a single key, and you can also use the keyboard to choose which units to produce and even the batch size. So it is perfectly possible to manage production using only your left hand.

Deicide4u , Doctors usually monitor the concentration of span of their sick patients. Then patients will hear enough of their daily diagnoses, and they go on forums and repeat it where they are not asked.   I could call you a liar. But I'll call you a poorly informed employee of the Colosseum. You didn't run a social surwey. survey, you don't have statistics on the use of the "Auto-queue" button. Especially when she 's not here .

I'm worried about your attention span here.  You suspect wrong, many players avoid the auto-queue feature as if it's the plague.

I bet you had to specify the clothing color, else it would be red
