June 10th - Indev Notes

This post covers changes to the EC Jam version that are in the development build (hence "indev") that will be included in a "final" version once the "voting" period ends.

Done:

• Cities have received a visual update to be clearer. (See attached image)
• Cities no longer have a circle for a population background.
• Cities now have randomized names.  You might see names two or three times in a playthrough, though.
  • None of the city names will make much sense.  (there are a few silly names though, like Yeppe and Noppe)
• City labels now have fancy font shadow shenanigans.  Labels have also received a change in font and font settings, for readability's sake.

In Progress:

• City connections can be cancelled.
• City connections highlight (red, possibly?) on hover to indicate that clicking would destroy the connection.
• Cities actually show their Population Level instead of just the number 1.
