Hello. I’m not sure if this topic has been brought up before. When we observe a player and select the “Follow Player” mode, my expectation is to get a perspective that closely reflects the player’s actual experience. However all queued units produced from buildings like barracks constantly draw focus to themselves. The camera shifts there and the selection jumps to the newly created unit. After a while this starts to feel like a bug. This becomes especially real during combat moments when I’m trying to follow the player’s micro. As units are being lost, the queued new ones are constantly being produced and the camera keeps getting pulled away, disrupting the viewing experience. I think this is something that needs to be fixed.   

You seem to have missed the finished state of the kurgan in the video you shared. If you look closely, there is no green mound there, the kurgan is completed with a stone-covered structure. In the next shot, it appears as a green hill because time has passed and the scene has shifted to a later period (you can tell from the clothing details, the buildings behind and even the visible wear and deterioration on the structure). At some point, you have to adapt or create things. For example, who really knows what Germans barracks looked like 2000 years ago? Most likely, no such standardized structure even existed. But for the sake of the game you still have to design something. I understand the effort to stay historically grounded, like having a unit fighting with a lightsaber would obviously break the mood. Still, I stand by my point: if one of two historically inspired designs creates a stronger visual atmosphere, I would choose that one.  In any case, the green mound version is historically inaccurate. The video you shared clearly demonstrates that.   In my opinion, stone stelae should be more prominent in design, they are the most striking remains that have survived from that period to the present, rather than a green hill. - Historical accuracy is not to be a burden to the gameplay but a means to improve, diversify and enrich it.

What is worse, many civs have the same basic techs about things that appeared thousands of years prior. I would use a "rename" if that's what the corresponding civs actually developed, and the impact would be comparable. What worries me a bit though is that, for example, Persians and Seleucids would have almost completely different techs, since one completely preceded the other chronologically. Should their techs be just a rename? Should Seleucid techs be better, but more expensive? Should, as someone proposed somewhere else (with some problems), some civs turn into others (sometimes with choices) along with their Phases? This last thing would solve lots of historical accuracy problems, but would change the game in a fundamental way (maybe something to test on some mod).

I've already solved the problem using ZeroTier, but thank you so much for offering your help. Have a great day everyone.

yeah this has annoyed me too, i didnt think of it as much, but can probably just remove citizen from them. Gonnna try that with CWA
