Looks awesome, I find the current interface to be a bit cumbersome to actually enjoy the game.

smoku, when units are stacked I can't move them, because "choose unit" menu pops out. It's possible to move those units by arrow keys, but it isn't that comfortable :p
And i don't know how to build a city with settlers :D
Anyway new UI is brilliant :)

I installed it with no problem. Try again from app manager.

And how would you solve this problem?
I.e. describe the workflow:
1. click this and this happens
2. then select that
3. then do that and unit does that

Select a settler unit and select build city from menu -> unit :)

I started noting my ideas for changes to the UI.

You have to open the programs menu (press the FreeCiv -text at the top bar) and there you will find the normal options.
------------------
I have found a few bugs:
1. You can't change any setting graphically because the textboxes and checkboxes aren't visible in the settings. And no, there isn't a scrollbar, I checked. The only way to change settings currently is by writing "/set <values name> <value>".
2. There isn't actually any meu in the game once you start playing. Currently you can only do things like build roads or cities with keyboard shortcuts (wich at least I can't remember).

Anyways you have done great job so far on this and it's already more usable than the old port.

Seriously we need to give smoku some sort of award for having done more for the gaming community of the N900 than anyone could have asked. In fact the more we weed out the N900 whiners and people who got the phone for the wrong reasons. The more the community impresses me and makes me glad I went N900.
