Best feature: modding flexibility.
Best thing to add: more of it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif , in the form of an SEPL (Space Empires Programming Language)
plus some AI improvements.

What do I like about it? All the knobs and twiddles from a player's perspective. It's quite reminiscent of Moo 2 in that way, but more so, and with fewer extremes (like Creative was in MOO2). One can create and role-play race to suit one's mood. Plus, it can all be edited as the player desires...

Functional Displays that focus on the game and not on the eye candy. ( sorry quite vague I can expain if someone asks)
F5 screen (I believe it is the planet list screen)
All the different views of your planets are great. ( Just needs the ability to exclude and/ or do inclusive only searchs on planets)


Setup screen. Done very well.

And I am very happy with the modding.

I think the best feature SE IV has going for it is the support it gets from the developers and the community http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

As for what I'd like to see, maybe a system generator in the map generator - something that will create a random system within specs set by you at a specific location within an existing map.

ok tesco, i'll ask, explain more

What i think is the best is the human players and hte whole PBW infrastructure. Everything else plays into the plan perfectly. It is just flawless (almost).

What i would like to see is a scenario editor, or a 'cheat' menu a la civ 2 so people can make more interesting/faster created scenarios, the first one (to my knowledge) Homecoming by SJ was done by reverse engineering the tutuorial. I should think that with MM giving such a big commitment to moddign scenario editing would be the logical next step.

<blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr>Homecoming by SJ was done by reverse engineering the tutuorial.<hr></blockquote>The only thing I really got from REing the tutorial was to make the scenario look more official. And its not exactly a secret, either, since the source is plaintext.

I made my scenario by playing a game under some wierd self-imposed rules, and went from
"Well, I'm nearly invincible now" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/blush.gif
to
"Crikey!* I just lost my entire empire" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon8.gif
to
"Hey, this would be cool for a scenario!" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif
