There are two things I would like to see in the newest patch.
1) the option of
excluding certain tech areas from research if a player has a particular racial tech already selected (very useful to avoid the

or system: in many mods), and
2) the change in refueling at starbases modified (again). It would be useful and justifiable if a ship that Mothballs and then is eventually Unmothballed at a base gains its full supplies. I think that is a reasonable workaround. It still puts ships out of play for a least a turn, costs a small amount of resources for the Unmothballing, and hoses crew experience. All justified by the nature of base drydock, and manditory crew reassignment (or just
awesome shoreleave). But it still allows deepspace bases to be used (as they should be) as rallying points for conquest.
