Default Re: Space Empires 5

What I would love to see in SEV.

The multi quadrant map idea.

Basically, you have 5 or more maps that are the current size up too 255 systems each, and each one of these 5 maps has a WP to one of the other maps. So when you enter the WP, you leave the Quadrant your in, and move to a new one.

Ground Combat.
Basically it would work just like Space Combat does now except it would take place on the surface of a planet. If you defeat the planet defenders, you capture the capital, and thus the planet.

Space Combat.
3d yes, but it would mean that no more custom ship sets could be built unless you had the software that Aaron uses to create the sets.

So I would stick with what works.

Political Improvements
Basically revamp the entire political system to include demenour tabs that can be selected to tell the AI or other player how your are feeling.

Polite - Please leave X system.
Aggitated - Please leave X system.
Angery - Leave X system.
Hotile - Get out of X system Now.

etc.

The AI would interpt the demenours and respond accordingly.

Wheel mouse support.
A Withdraw from Combat before entering combat feature.
Fog of war that looks like a star map. Keep all of the systems hidden until you explore them. You only see the systems on the quadrant map that you have explored.

The ability to set each individual races starting tech level

The ability to specifically set the number of AI controlled empires and neutral races.

More neutral races. (6 is a bit low)
