Pet Scout Dog for +25 Happiness Reward (Once Per Age)

[torn night]

Petting the scout dog gives you 25 happiness, once per age. If this is not enough, let me know

Pet the scout that triggers a narrative event that lets you choose between 25 happiness or +1 sight hehe

Even at the risk of being hated, I really dislike that button of "petting the dog". To me, it makes no sense that “heal unit” is hidden under “expand options,” while “pet the dog” is one of the main buttons.

[tall marsh]

well, your criticism does make sense

[lone kiln]

It does, but same time, pet the dog.

[random prism]

I too wish that it actually did something.

The first time I saw it I thought it was how the scout skipped their turn lol, but it would be kinda fun if every unit had a little idle animation like that for skipping their turn, like an infantry unit playing a quick round of cards or smth

how about horses

[hoary shard]

I think the game should focus for more deep problems guys 😂 let’s keep it as a nice geg, you can pet the dog if you are bored, a lovely future to make the game a little more cesual, don’t make profit of it

Pet dog:
50% chance +50 happiness
50% chance catch rabies

Little off topic: But is it true that all scouts have a visible dog on the boat when they board? Because on Switch 2 only the Tonga scout has this feature.

[lone kiln]

Think it’s Tonga only? will check

[spring glen]

honestly narrative events for doing really minor, cosmetic stuff is also kinda cool
like imagine say renaming a conquered city would have one where the citizens are confused to what they're called
another one could also be the renaming of any commander

[torn night]

I definitely remember seeing the dog on the boat, at least in antiquity on a river, but I otherwise dont look at scouts in the ocean during explo

[torn night]

Can confirm now, all scouts are like this

[thin stratus]

Ok, so switch 2 version has not optimozed graphic. Sad

[lone kiln]

It should be exactly the same

Can you double check?

[thin stratus]

I confirm that only tonga has special embarked scout. For other civ i can see only a little boat without dog or people on it

[torn night]

I see the dog on it with any civ in any age

[thin stratus]

I hope that switch 2 version will have a decente graphic update in the future

[lone kiln]

It looks stunning ?

[thin stratus]

It's good now, but given the power of the console, something more could be done. For example, consider implementing the more detailed scout for the Switch 2 as well. As soon as I can, I'll post a photo of what I see when the scout boards; it's very sad.

[thin stratus]

This is the enbarked scout on switch 2...

[lone kiln]

That looks more like a bug tbh - #civ7-bug-reports-and-help it

[thin stratus]

I forwarded the report. Let's see what they say.
