Well folks, more worlds have started updating to 7.0, and with them come the many changes that 7.0 has to offer. You understandably have a good many questions - the aim of this topic is to provide you with the answers to the most common of those. Feel free to suggest additional entries.
Account Manager
The Account Manager is a purchasable expansion pack for the Premium system that contains a number of additional features designed to ease the management of a large account by allowing for the partial automation of various tedious tasks.
Graphics
To revert back to the 7.0 style, simply empty out the box and hit OK. Note that this will not quite revert everything back to how it looked in 6.5 - the bottom menu bar and the order of the items in the top menu bar will still be there.

Account Manager
The Account Manager is a purchasable expansion pack for the Premium system that contains a number of additional features designed to ease the management of a large account by allowing for the partial automation of various tedious tasks.
- What are the features?
- Attack Notifications! Need a few hours break? No problem. Nifty email notifications will be popped into your inbox about incoming attacks should someone get a sudden urge to expand at the cost of your villages while you are enjoying a quiet moment. Several customization options are available for the sending of said notifications.
- Village Manager! Those that have the Account Manager activated on their accounts will be provided with the possibility to set up extensive building queues. Up to a certain number of desired building levels (default: 50) can be filled in on the Village Manager screen - the various Village Headquarters will then attempt to complete these orders one by one if and when enough resources are available.
Please note that orders are not necessarily added to the Currently Building Queue (the queue you are acquainted with) from the Building List in the order that they are shown. If the first item in the list cannot be added due to a lack of resources, the Village Manager will attempt to add the second item, and so on and so forth. The Currently Building Queue is only updated once it finishes.
- Troop Manager! The Troop Manager is an improved Mass Recruitment screen that allows players to specify sets of units to recruit automatically once resources and farm space requirements have been met. [postlink=290160]Howto >>[/postlink]
- Market Manager! Players will be able to set up a number (default: 50) of periodic resource transfers (Trade Routes) between villages in order to maximise their resource usage efficiency. The villages involved will of course need to have the required number of merchants available. If the requirements for a transfer are not met at the time it is meant to be sent, the transaction will be skipped until the next scheduled time.
- Attack Notifications! Need a few hours break? No problem. Nifty email notifications will be popped into your inbox about incoming attacks should someone get a sudden urge to expand at the cost of your villages while you are enjoying a quiet moment. Several customization options are available for the sending of said notifications.

Graphics
- Everything looks messed up!
Hm, there's a good chance you're using Internet Explorer 6.0, or lower. We're going to have to point out that we announced that we'd dropped support for this 10-year old browser several months ago, as it's a developmental nightmare to work with it. Upgrading to Internet Explorer 8.0 or using a different browser completely will resolve the issue. Click here for a browser overview.
- I don't like Report Pictures, the New Unit Pictures and/or the Night Graphics!
Go to: Settings > Settings > Classic Graphics
Click: That box
Click: OK
- I don't like the 7.0 look at all! Aw, we're kinda hurt. Oh well.
Go to: Settings > Settings > Path for CSS file:*
Type: /oldstyle.css into that box.
Click: OK
To revert back to the 7.0 style, simply empty out the box and hit OK. Note that this will not quite revert everything back to how it looked in 6.5 - the bottom menu bar and the order of the items in the top menu bar will still be there.
Map
- Some map popup information isn't displaying, but it did before the update!
Goto: Your map screen
Click: >>Popup options - it's in the same column as the minimap.
Select the information you want
Click: OK
- Ahhh, the political map isn't showing up on the main map!
That's not a bug, it's been removed from there for performance reasons. There are currently no plans to restore it.
Can't Find / Doesn't Work!
- Where are the Forum, Help, Support and Friends links?
On the new menu bar down at the bottom.
- Can't mint coins en masse?
Select the number of coins you would like to mint in all villages, and then hit 'select' - it's disguised as a title but is in reality a button. Image >>
- Can't find World Settings!
We moved them to the Statistics page.
Home Page > Statistics > World Settings
- Can't find Rules under Help!
Aye, just refer to the Rules linked on the Homepage in the top menu.
