Event buildings: Final upgrade confirmation dialogue box

Status

Proposal:
Add a confirmation dialogue box for the final event building upgrade, where there is a choice of final building type. This would require the user to confirm that they really wanted to build that building type, thus reducing mistakes.

Have you checked the forums for the same or similar idea?
Yes. I have searched through the Archived, Forwarded, Do Not Suggest, and Unformatted threads.

Reason:
It is too easy to inadvertently click the wrong upgrade type at the final stage of an event building upgrade, especially when you are building it from scratch and moving through, say, the 9 previous upgrades.

Details:
For example, the Pagoda building has three options for the final upgrade: WATER, FIRE, and EARTH. But since I was moving through 6 previous upgrades, one after the other, clicking the last item in the list as the available upgrade, I inadvertently clicked the EARTH Pagoda by mistake, thinking it was just another standard upgrade; it was at the far right of the set of 3 options.
Of course, the same feature could apply to other buildings where there is a choice, say, the September Cottage etc.

Balance/Abuse Prevention:
There is nothing about the suggestion that would enable abuse of the feature.

You forgot to add a poill, but there really is no need for this. To start with, you need to pay attention to what you do. You know there will come a point where you have to chose. If by any chance you make a mistake, you can contact Support, who can correct it for you. They will if you contact them right away and do not make this mistake over and over again.

True, but it would be nice for both players and support to have fewer of those tickets ;)

Having a confirmation box will also mean that there will be players that want an option to disable that box. Problem isn't the confirmation box, but the players. You are under no pressure at all, cause there is no reason at all to do it fast. So all you have to do is pick the right building. It hardly is rocket science. If you can not even get that right. you should be stuck with the building you picked. No help from Support. That will also give you fewer tickets. :P

Alternatively, instead of a popup, make it so the player when clicking on the placed building has the option of changing the buildings final upgrade up until the first production is finished. At that point the selection would be final.
