Default Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

I sent a suggestion directly to Aaron. He thought it was an "excellent" idea.

Here's the meat of the idea (minus my fawning and sucking up).

Quote:
It can often be useful to know all the statistics of a given system. I suggest some sort of menu-- say a pull down menu from the system name in the top left corner of the system map. This would include such things as total production for the system of each resource, research and intelligence, presence or absence of system wide facilities, sensor level, empty facility slots and many others, which of course I can't think of right now. Production levels would quickly determine the relative importance of the system and help you decide which system wide facilities to build. In general this would be a major micro-management tool. How often have we missed filling in all facility slots or doubled up expensive system wide facilities? Instead of searching each planet individually, you could then see it all in one comprehensive table and speed up your play... and speed it up with confidence.
