You may not always have the spare gems and need to manually search though. I like how SEV added the command where a scout ship auto searches the whole sector. Same type of deal.

Thank you for the "w" key command. cannot believe i never noticed that on the tips between turns(:

I would like an audio signal that the turn is completed. i alt tab between turns with large maps lots ai players because length time it takes. A chime or something signaling next turn would be great!

There kindof is, in the standard Linux fashion. You can name a command for --postexec to do. It can be a command, or file, or script (such as a batch file if its a windows machine). If I remember correctly, you should be able to set --postexec chime.wav

Look for the threads about saving games. They used the --preexec to save files before hosting but the other info on how to tap into it would be the same

Gandalf, I believe that this is just a server command though. It would be more interesting for a client, when blitzing.

Oops, yes. Server side only. I forget because usually in my MP games I am the server. Its very handy.

The ability to disband troops.

I know this has been said many times, but since this is a new wishlist, just wanted to be sure it was on this one too!

While we're at this, another all-time favorite: The ability to load a pretender you already created in the "Create Pretender" menu. So that you can see what you gave him and maybe change some stuff without having to do it all from scratch again.

If this feature is just missing because there's a problem when a password is set, then ask for the password before loading?
