1) In addition to the "next" unit and "sleep" modes, have a "done with current turn" mode, so that you can click it and it will not bother you with that unit until the next turn. Basically, a sleep mode that expires at the end of the current turn.

2) "Upgrade all" feature. It would let you know how much to upgrade everything, then give you the option to do it with one click.

3) A "Move To" feature, that would let you give a far off destination to a unit and let it automatically move there over a number of turns.

Another question, maybe suggestion--
It seems the unit color activation scheme, where a unit goes dark when it is complete, could be improved. Either allowing a customization of this or setting it so that a unit goes dark when it can't do anything would be useful. I often have a bunch of units that may have an activation point left, but can't do anything because of their location. At a glance, it looks like I haven't moved them, but in reality they are basically done.

Suggestion for AA-update: offer regional updates. Example: I've 120 Mps cash, and I want to spend it to improve towns, ressources and fortress improvements. Today I have to do the update manually, 12 times in a row. It would be nice if there would be an option to update as more than one entity. Not sure what the best solution would be (nations, harbors, or enitity around the one which I currently upgrade. But some help would be appreciated, if possible. This is of course only a "nice to have" feature, nothing really important.

Hi Claus

Have you tried using upgrade tool which is one of the options at the top of the main panel at the bottom of the screen?

It only requires one click to upgrade each resource with this, unless there are units on top of them, and I'm not sure that any other method would be quicker unless we had a quick way for you to denote that you wanted resources rather than units occupying the resources to be upgraded with this tool.

Bill
