2.3 Suggestions

Don't show Jump Gate components in the build queue until at least the first level of the construction component is researched.

Move the Geo Status button off the F9 screen. Mining tab of F2 would be nice

Don't show Jump Gate components in the build queue until at least the first level of the construction component is researched.

Not sure that's a good idea. I have built the components before now when the tech was researched. Ah, or don't you mean that as a space saver. Are you saying that I shouldn't be able to do that, even if I wanted to, until I have the ship module tech?

It sort of makes sense that you cannot built the gate components until you know how to build a gate.

Population and Production -> Shipyard tab: Set the default fleet to Shipyard TG.

Better - alow us to designbate a default fleet for each planet (or shipyard under the new rules).

Once you have more than 1 planet building ships it'll get real annoying for the second one to always be trying to add new ships to the fleet in the first system (or no fleet at all...)

Option in the Commander search by ability to show only unassigned officers.

Option in the Commander search by ability to show only unassigned officers.

And in the general officers list - option to show only unassigned officers.

Also option to only show vacant command positions.

Option on the Control-A screen to filter out planets over a certain cost.

Need an EASY way to reload more than 1 PDC at once.

Maybe allow certain orders from the F12 screen.

[Randy]

Either include a sector command on the home world, or allow one to be added by the SM...

  I like to have the starting planet have one - and it makes sense as this is your "capital"...

[Randy]

Allow us to sort fighter groups - at least by official name...

[Pete_Keller]

When you are in the create research project, sort the tech based drop downs backwards so that if you have UV Laser and below, you get UV Laser as the default choice, but leave the size based drop downs the same, so you get a size 1 reactor first.

Add Terraformer Installations to the planetary SM mods page (sorry if I missed a reason why they aren't there posted on the boards).

On the Ship text export button, maybe give an option to export with BBCode embedded, replacing the dashed lines with

Code: [Select]
