Default What is your favorite SE4 feature?

So what is it? Or if you'd prefer, what would you add to SE4 to make it your perfect game?

Best feature: modding flexibility.
Best thing to add: more of it , in the form of an SEPL (Space Empires Programming Language)
plus some AI improvements.

What do I like about it? All the knobs and twiddles from a player's perspective. It's quite reminiscent of Moo 2 in that way, but more so, and with fewer extremes (like Creative was in MOO2). One can create and role-play race to suit one's mood. Plus, it can all be edited as the player desires...

Functional Displays that focus on the game and not on the eye candy. ( sorry quite vague I can expain if someone asks)
F5 screen (I believe it is the planet list screen)
All the different views of your planets are great. ( Just needs the ability to exclude and/ or do inclusive only searchs on planets)


Setup screen. Done very well.

And I am very happy with the modding.

I think the best feature SE IV has going for it is the support it gets from the developers and the community

As for what I'd like to see, maybe a system generator in the map generator - something that will create a random system within specs set by you at a specific location within an existing map.
