Improve the research complete notification

[paulcsiki]

Hey everyone,

I'm new here. I did a couple of forum searches but I didn't find anything about recent research jobs. I hear the sound when research completes but I can't figure out what was it that I was researching? Can we have a toast notification like achievement unlocked (or maybe in the top right corner) with what research job has finished?

Thanks and Happy Easter!

You can activate the option that forcefully opens the research menu upon research completion :
Settings > Interface > Interaction > Technology window opens when research is complete.

Which:

A) does not work for the research queue (neither opens nor shows the last tech researched).
B) doesn't show what was researched for techs with a followup I think.

I second this:
There is a notification sound but the information which research just finished vanished exactly when the notification sounded.
I think the old research should be displayed for 2 or 3 seconds before the next one starts.

I think the research dialog should pop up when that option is set in the settings. If you don't want it to pop up then remove the setting.

And the setting can be 3-state: Always open, open when empty and never open.

And please add an option to disable the stupid blinking.

I think the blinking stops once you open the research dialog and close it. I personally don't find it too distracting and I believe that it's ok to be blinking to draw your attention.

After observing the current behavior more attentive:

If you not que your research everything is fine:
Research finishes and either you see the blinking result or the research window pops open (depending on what's set in options)

If you have research qued than you hear the finished sound but you have no way of seeing what has finished because the new one starts.
There is no blinking / and no research window will open.
Worst of all: Even if you manually open the research window you can't tell what just finished.
The list with finished researches on the bottom left is sorted by techlevel or something similar - so it doesn't tell you your recent discoverys

Personally I guess I will stop using queing for now (exept for techs I really don't care about)
