I've recently rediscovered Widelands that has turned into a great game, thanks!

When I want to expand my land (close to an enemy) I'm not always sure what military building to take. The buildings help icon shows the amount of buildings you have, but as far as I have found out, not the amount of resources it takes (stone, marble, wood, etc...), nor the amount of soldiers this building will accomodate.

Any plans to add that or has this been build-in?

Hi Felix,

you are right. In current development versions the needed wares and the amount of those wares is shown in the building window as soon as you hold the mouse pointer over a building. So that feature is already implemented and will be in Build18. The number of soldiers is not yet shown, but actually I am unsure whether this is worth the effort to implement it. Generally it seems logical to me, that a bigger building takes longer to be build and can hold more soldiers than a small one, but well I am used to the game...

Cheers Nasenbaer
