Fog of War and already colonized planets...

[Raapys]

A sensor ghost would be ideal. You get exactly the same info as the last time you saw it, with the colony being greyed out or something to indicate it isn't current data.

I've already emailed Aaron about this. I'd like it to work with ships as well, though, and work for the AI too. It would massively improve the AI, and would remove some odditities in the pathfinding calculations, etc. Fog of war really crippled the AI this time around, because unlike us the computer has *no memory* about what was in a hex the last time he explored it, even if he explored it that very same turn, so he will make decisions based on incomplete data; data that he would have had he been a human player.
