I got the game working and everything, but I'm having trouble with civilizations. A message keeps popping up saying "Advancement is slow, science needs energy." What does it mean, and how to I fix it? I've tried the civilization model and everything, but I can't keep the message from appearing. What am I doing wrong?

Increase the usage of various energy sources.
Increase the energy allocation to Science.

Does anyone know how or where to get ahold of a copy of the damn manual for this thing? I haven't played this game in at least ten years, and I really need a refresher.

Why does everything have to be so f'in complex to play a game thats almost 2 decades old?
Dosbox this, Memory that...

Why cant it just be made to click install and play?

Because both hardware and software manufacturers decided to leave out proper backwards compatibility - resulting in the current situation. Thus the need for emulators to fill in for the missing elements.]

You want to complain? Talk to Microsoft about it.
