Description

It would be nice if players had the option to automatically see what their allies are doing when starting a game instead of having to build a market for that.

This is possible for mods, I would disagree with adding it to 0 A.D. since this is part of the game. Getting tired to build a market to see what allies is doing is not a reason to make an option to introduce an option to disable this behavior.

I agree with Stan and the other posters in the forum that this would be a good option to add. There's already an option for "reveal" and "explored map", so I don't see why there shouldn't be an option for players to choose whether or not they want to play with shared ally vision at game start. Just my 2 cents.. I'm not a regular player ;)

Although maybe it would be simpler, or cleaner, in the long-run to make it as a "sub-option" for "revealed map".
