City Growth
This has been annoying me tremendeously since I got the game:

How do you find out in how many turns a city will advance a population point? I can't figure it out - and if there is no was to find out than that really sucks. I know in the city manager screen there is that little food bar on the left that says like +605 or whatever the surplus is but how the heck do you know when it will grow?

Argh. I'm probably just stupid and blind and it's right in front of my face but somebody please tell me. hehehe Happy Holidays

City size increases for every 10000 people. Say your city says its increasing +600 and you currently have 10976 people. To get to size 2 you need
(20000-10976)/600 turns to increase.

I think most people would prefer to be told how many turns until a city growth rather than the amount of surplus. (Because they're too lazy to work it out)

Itīs ok as it is. If there is 5000 people left to next size and it increases 600, im sure everyone can say how many turn it is aproximatly. And itīs not really THAT important anyhow...
