    Question What are your wait times between turns?

    Mine is 75 seconds. I have 1 GB or RAM. Would more RAM be worth it? What is the lowest wait time you can get?

    I love this game, but there is a lot of turns that are just to save money, that takes farily quick turns. 75 seconds isn't bad, but when it only takes me 45 seconds to hit end turn again, it gets to me.

    Nearly no wait.

    Yes, more ram would definitely be worth it. They're fairly cheap anyhow. That is, unless something else is bottlenecking it.

    I have two GB of RAM. Time between turns are generally around 30 seconds, and yes I actually timed it. My one GB of RAM system has 60 seconds between turns.

    4GB of ram and not much less than 30 seconds if anything.

    XP can only deal with about 3.5 of ram anyway so thats the max.

    Processor may be a factor too.

    I used to have time to work on another project, read a book, or make dinner, but now, bam, bam, bam; poor little me, the turns are so quick I can't.
