I've been playin around and modding thinks in gold for a couple days now and it seems to me that there are a few tweaks that could make this game perfect. Look at resources. How much organics and radioactives does anyone actually use? Population should be dependant on organics and possibly resupply ability on radioactives. Not enough Organics? Population starts dying on some planets. Same with rads... ships dead in space for want of supplies. Look at the planetary weapons. Anybody ever seen the Resupply Depot bombs used? The Spaceport bombs? These things are there but not really used to any extent.(especially by the AI) Only other thing I think the game really needs is an improved AI. I love the game but the ai seems kinda dumb. The Terrans were bigger than me so I started using Intel to steal their ships, got maybe twenty and they still felt brotherly toward me right up to the time I started knocking off their planets. I'd also like to see the AI actually try to invade planets rather than just glassing them. Planets are seriously underpowered as it is. I've dropped research and intel points for facilities, added monstrous planetary shields to make planets more difficult to kill (wish I could make them built in but..) and added some expanded ships and techs to support them. (destroyer tech and class II and III destroyers, class III is same size as light cruiser but cheaper and requires new tech.) Unfortunately the AI doesn't seem to use any of it. This is my wish list for SEV. Leave the game itself alone, just make the AI better and get it to use some of the cool things already there. That would be perfect.
