Adjustment to Embark Screen
« on: January 25, 2015, 06:09:38 pm »
The screen I'm suggesting be revised is the screen after world generation but before dealing with your embark crew and supplies.

It has 4 ... panels?  showing left to right:
Local / Region / World / Legend.

change to :
World / Region / Local / Legend

I would suggest swapping the Local and World  .. um .. panel.

My problem is the the Legend screen has important information displayed I mostly use when examining the Local screen.  It does show some information on the World screen when cycling (tabbing) through the civilization screen (it shows the location of the Dwarf civs). The other Legends show the ground , type and height, mostly useful on the Local screen or panel -  particularly when I move the embark point on the local screen and need to see the lay of the land, relative height, and all the other information that is available as I tab through the Legends menus.

I have trouble connecting the Legend information with what is displayed on the Local screen when they are widely separated.
