ON FLEET CREATION AND MANAGEMENT: I would like a way to take ships in production and have them join the designated fleet on completion, then travel to the fleet base. This would eliminate ships deciding to go do their own thing whenever they want, and then me having to track them down and tell them to go to the fleet one by one. Even ordering ships from a fleet screen, and then build orders are distributed throughout the empire and the ships arrive at the home base, resulting in a popup message. Fleet Retrofit should work the same way (have not played with it at all) ON LACKING THE RESOURCES TO COMPLETE A SHIP: I started a new game, the Zenox or whatever, they had these shields that require dilithium crystals, and all the ships use them. So you order 6 explorers, they rock it up to 96% completion... and then nothing happens, because, of course, you don't have dilithium crystals yet. There is no indicator anywhere that I can find that you are actually lacking dilithium crystals, it just sits there and clogs your build order, so nothing gets produced. ON COMMERCIAL VENTURES INVOLVING HOTELS AND RECREATION Why do I have to build friggin hotels? I'm the god emperor of the imperium. Once my mighty battle fleets clear the despotic scum of the legions of aliens from the planets of the galaxy, why can't my venture capitalists install the hotels in those locations? To balance automated hotel construction, scenic locations should lose value when heavy militarization\industrialization is at that planet. You can't put three defensive starbases in orbit around a hotel and expect people to pay 7 star prices or buy 300 dollar bottles of ale. ON PLANESMOS There needs to be more variation of objects in the galaxy. Finding gas clouds and dilithium crystal asteroids is nice, but where are the pulsars (ok,i guess we have neutron stars), brown dwarfs, and planemos? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planemo) Finding a PLANET out in the middle of nowhere with some ancient technology on the surface would be pretty cool. ON THE DIVERSITY OF LIFE It seems, so far, that continental worlds are prime worlds at the beginning, and as you bring other critters into your empire, you can then colonize more places. Where are the lithovores, or the pure robot species? Robot races would tend to colonize the barren, airless worlds, while lithovores would feel right at home on a volcanic world. On Racism Ok, in space games, i'm a racist. I admit it. I want to exterminate the humans and put them in forced labor camps, not incorporate them into the glorious empire. Wheres the options for the xenophobes?!! Military indoctrination camps and forced labor to still take advantage of their skills.
