When I click the "Absorb" button to Absorb "City B" into "City A", a pop-up window that previews the effects would be invaluable.
Before merging a city, it's a guess how good the new city is going to be. FIMSI won't be a linear combination of the original cities — depending on many factors, each of these values may be above or below the sum of the independent cities. Most commonly though, the new city will be plagued by food shortages and struggle with stability.
Please include the following:
- Food, Industry, Money, Science, Influence, Stability of both cities pre-merge, and the resulting city post merge.
- This especially means a preview of the merged city's combined population and predicted food shortages
- Infrastructure present in each city and in the resulting city. This could even be shown in a three-column grid where infrastructure that's present in one city but missing in another city is called out, along with the influence costs incurred by them missing. (For bonus points, a button on each missing infrastructure to queue them up in that city's build queue)
I'm sure I'm missing other information that would be useful to know before merging a city. What else would you like to see in such a dialog window?
