[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tkela
[B]I've been playing the demo (for Starships Unlimited) and, while I like it, there are too many things that annoy me for me to want to buy SU II. Of course, if they have been changed in SU II, then I'd like to buy the game.[/B][/QUOTE]
Short answer: Buy the game, it's great. I haven't played I, so my long answers might be a bit off.
[QUOTE][B]Has the command interface for ships been changed? It is rather awkward (in SU I) to command a ship to explore a particular unexplored system.[/B][/QUOTE]
Select ship from the units pop-up, click on the system in the star map, click on the navigation icon, pick "explore system." (I have to learn the keyboard shortcuts....)
[QUOTE][B]Is there a way to disable the "auto-production" of units (freighters, spies, etc.) at your planets? I don't mind ship repairs going on the queue but I do not want anything else unless I explicitly command it?[/B][/QUOTE]
Lots of automation can be disabled, including everything you mentioned.
[QUOTE][B]Is there a way to see a list of ships, damage and useful artifacts (like relics)?[/B][/QUOTE]
Not sure what you mean--a list of all your ships with their damage? List of all relics and where they are? No to both.
[QUOTE][B]Is there a way to get a list of all planets to see their potential for colonies? [/B][/QUOTE]
There's a planets pop-up that lets you list the top planets for colonization based on various criteria.
