Agree..

And..STEVE...can u prepare an grahpical represntation when an Missile or an beam struck the target?:)..
And when an ship explode? can we LOOK effects?:)
:| I do not think 2d displays can do aurora justice, hopefully in the future you can have a usb plug on your head or at least holograms displays to truly enjoy the game.
I was thinking more along the line where number cannot really allow you to understand progress such as month to month economic growth or comparing planetary  emissions and other unwieldy metrics.

I don't think there is much need for a hex map because everything is recorded positionally.

If you are talking about icons for gas giants, etc... that I can see.

Refuel a Colony who lack on SORIUM
« Reply #138 on: February 24, 2009, 01:07:46 PM »
Steve.
Ive some SOlar system who lack completely on SORIUM on planets surface..BUT are full of them in GAS giants.
1)For a good colony Sorium are strategical,so am build Fuel harvester and put in orbit around the Gas Giant..
BUT
2)FH task group NEED an supplementary COMMAND LINE:"when fuel tanks r FULL,goto Main Planet and unload 90%,then return Gas Giants Orbit"

In this we can setup a very intelligence colonization on far and poor solar systems..otherwise r very difficult manage it.

hope u understand what am try to mean:)

You mean instead of (or in addition to) "Go to nearest colony and unload 90% fuel" have "go to homeworld (or sector capital) and unload 90% fuel"?

Use conditional "when fuel tanks are full"  to execute the unload 90% order.

OK..one of mine FH follow "conditional" and are en route to an Colony..then ive show on command orders..and am show the after:"enter orbit xxx"..hmmm..probably am found a damned automatic refuel colony solutions:)
Ty v much mate
A little trouble..in a Solar System can have more than 1 main colony..SO the conditional orders ("fuel tank full">>"unload 90%..") are TOO generic.

pls implement a conditional more specifically: "Unload at >25 ,or >100 ,or >200million pop Colony..or "Main Colony" or "Spaceport Colony" and so on.

Scroll bars for the Officers screen would be good.

In the task force commands you have as a possible command 'detach tankers'.  I would like to see a similar command but for jumpships.  I regularly put unarmored jumpships in my patrol fleets for faster, cheaper travel (assault fleets use specialized warships), but would like a quick way to detach them when they get to their destination.  I have tried using that command and since my jumpships are tankers as well, but for some reason, unless I rename the fleet it forms it will not allow any jump movement.  example:  Patrol A transits a jump point and detaches tankers/jumpships (tanker I), which stays on the jp.  Theoreticaly any ships should be able to transit the jp using that jumpship.  Unfortunatly the game seems to think that since I detached "tankers" then it can't be a jumpship as well and will not allow it to assist in transits.

A vote from me for this as well; I believe Steve mentioned he was going add scroll bars to a bunch of windows for the next version?

In the officer screen when picking reasearch as the Ability A, can you add the different subfields as options in the ability B field.  I often find myself looking through multiple officers for the reasearch bonus that I want.  At the start of a game it is no big deal, but after 30 years and about 3000 officers it takes a while for each one to show.

I may have already asked for this, if so sorry for the repeat.
