#177 first landing screen + popup order
Trunk rev baff6c1
When landing the first unit in the New World 3 screens pop up at he same time :
please name our new land
you have discovered an unknown region
First landing in New Holland
I feel this is messy, and should be consecutive instead of simultaneous.
My preferred order would be :
1. please name our new land
2, first landing screen with the name chosen by player
3. you have discovered an unknown region
This is more of a feature request than a bug, as "mess" is a matter of taste. FTR I prefer to get all this messaging done in one go, but to each his own.
Imposing a strict order is harder than the current scheme where whenever the server detects the condition the client is informed ASAP. Ordering is probably best imposed on the client side --- popping up the first landing scheme with the actual name in it would be a useful improvement and that could be triggered out of the input dialog that accepts the new land name.
The region naming is an interesting case. I have wondered if it were better to
put the region name input into the new land name input panel, but never bothered as it is something that happens at most once per game (per client).
After reading your reply, i realised my post was to self centered, and the main thing that bugs me is the inconsistency between the 'name new land' and 'first landing in default new world name".
I'm ok with moving this to the feature requests.

The name issue is fixed in git.d517f9d. If it looks table I will move this to the FR category soon.
