View Full Version : Time left on buildings in queue

I recently noticed that when I have only 1 building in construction it shows the building's name and time left until it will be completed. However, should I occupy more than 1 building slot, it only shows the time of the first building in queue (and only the first time I hover my mouse over it). When I hover my mouse over 2nd or 3rd building, it stops showing the time for all buildings and only shows the building name (and sometimes the resources it uses).

I know it is not THAT important but it would still sometimes be a useful piece of information.

+1 Trigintijon.
From my observation the build time comes and goes and I haven't really figured out the pattern but it would be a nice thing to know how much time is left to build. Agreed also it's on the small list of things to worry about but if it could be slid in sometime it would be nice.

This is a Very Old Bug: [OPEN] Graphics glitch: Remaining build time not showing (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/27436-OPEN-Graphics-glitch-Remaining-build-time-not-showing)

It's normal that only the first building shows the time and the pattern Trigintiljon described of mousing over a waiting building in the queue then back to the first is also explained by Fexno in the 2nd post of that thread. It's still a bug, but now that the actual active-building-under-construction shows the remaining build time it's not quite the problem it once was.

The timer starts when the builder has traveled from the nearest storage to the build site and start building. The build time can't be shown for the 2nd, 3rd, etc. buildings in the build queue because the travel time to the build site is "unknown".
