Let us see our own AW's

Edit July 7: Rewrote post to put into requested format.

Summary
Enable the AW quick menu for our own AW's. We can donate to our own AW's; don't understand why we were excluded when the feature was recently introduced.

Benefits
Increases ease of use, making the game more enjoyable. It will become faster to review our own AW's and donate to our own if we want.

Cons
Development effort


Details

• The quick view is easier to navigate than the traditional AW menu as it shows only ones we have built and not everything possible.
• In the browser version, it would enabled us to see all research progress at a glance, which is otherwise not possible.
• A space in the interface already exists. Should not be much more than copy/paste of a function call.

This would be quite handy when deciding which AW to finish next. Often there are times I've donated to a wonder I've forgotten about, or someone has donated to a wonder and I didn't realize it. Seeing them all at a glance would be awesome.

 

[Kekune]

Agreed. There is the AW tab on mobile, but I find it less useful for this purpose.

 

[Yogi Dave]

Another simple (or so it seems), useful interface change. Let us see the state of our AWs as everyone else does.

 

[Galdrias]

Totally agree. I lose track of my AWs. It would be ever so convenient to have that button for our own city. I can't imagine it would take much time or effort to add.

 

[Risen Malchiah]

@Hurtball This is a good idea. Don't let it die.

The only downside I see is the missing icon helps locate yourself in the fellowship roster, but there's a solution for that. If you visit any of the rankings pages, you and your fellowship are highlighted in the lists. If your own city was highlighted in the fellowship roster in the same manner, it would help.

I'm bumping this so others will see it. I love this idea.

Yes please for this suggestion.

Oh my! This is such a simple and brilliant suggestion! Thank you for it.

 

[Alpha Lyrae]

I like it!

 

[StarLoad]

100% support from me

 

[Ashrem]

Seems like an easy and welcome improvement

 

[Risen Malchiah]

Yes, no real dissent it seems. I would urge you to add the note about highlighting your row in the fellowship roster to the original proposal before any polling begins. (Changes afterward can't be included.)

While they're at it. How about when you click your AW tab, ( or this proposed button ) have your favorited AW come up in the first pane. Like friends' AWs do

Maybe, they could just about replace all calls to the Ancient wonders with the same one they use for other people. That might be a separate request, though, as they'd also have to make provisions for accessing your upgrade tab.

Well the current format when you click the AW icon on the bottom bar is still useful since it shows AWs we have not built. If we want to shunt the favorite to the front page, I'm cool with that.

Yes, that is a separate request. A lot more questions need to be asked and answered if that is the goal.
My feeling is this should look and work exactly as it does if someone else clicked your name to bring it up. If you propose it to be any different, the code effort increases which could decrease the chance of it being accepted. You can donate to yourself as everyone can. That is all. You can't select a favorite or start an upgrade or see information about the AW. Let the current mechanisms deal with those aspects. If the devs want to include more than we are asking for, great. But keep this idea simple, please.

The AW icon view also shows the AWs we haven't even unlocked. How would these issues be dealt with? I suspect there are more.

Is this thread dead? @Hurtball hasn't posted here except for the initial post on May 22. I made the last post, not including this one, Jun 23.
I think it's an obvious and great idea.
