Default Minor UI Improvement

Wouldn't it be nice if during the item creation menu, it showed you your gem income per type when you moused over their icons? It'd help a lot in deciding what items to make, and I often find myself having to switch back and forth between menus to determine how many gems I'll have next turn, etc.

Hmm, that would be helpful. I have also noticed that the manual does not list the gem cost for items, which irks me to no end. Perhaps you should post in the Dom 4 wish-list. It is very long, but hopefully it will be taken into account if and when the time comes.

It lists the path requirements and the amount of gems spesific level in a path takes. From page 263:
level 1: 5 gems/slaves
level 2: 10 gems/slaves
level 3: 15 gems/slaves
level 4: 25 gems/slaves
level 5: 40 gems/slaves
level 6: 65 gems/slaves
level 7: 90 gems/slaves
level 8: 115 gems/slaves
level 9: 140 gems/slaves

Funny how it's a good Fibonacci series right up to the highest value actually used and then goes wonky. Maybe that page was written on April 1st?

IIRC It was pure fibonacci in dom2, but it turned out to be a bit too high in the end lvls. Now that I look at it I don't see why anymore. Might be that it wasn't fibonacci at all.

This is also applicable to the ritual spell casting menu, too.

It was not Fibonacci at all in Dom2. It is in Dom3 up to Lv 6

Aha, ok. Now I remember: it's the research that is fibonacci.
