Depends upon if your just playing against the AI or in a PBW game. PBW games the best is Cyrstilline I think because of the armor. AI games I use the Organic for the weapons, or the religious for the Talisment.

Yes, turn on path lines, and look at the order icon to see if the ship has orders or not. Also you can use a minister if you want, but that kinda doesn't work to well unless you have all ministers on.

You must be in the resource window to use the cheat, and you must be in the cunstruction window to use that cheat.
You really don't need cheats.
