Default gold questions / remarks

questions:

1. I have an area where colony ships go from an AI player that i'm currently have trade alliance with. I warned them not to put a colony there but they did it anyway so i demanded that they leave yet they stay. Anything else i can try otherwise i feel a troop movement coming up :-)

2. Is there a way to set a minister to just a few planets and only allow him to launch say fighters and sattelites and do nothing else? Now i launch my sat by hand and this is veeeerrry tedious.

3. i heavily mine waypoints. anyway of instructing a miner to go by a certain number of waypoints, mine them and then come home?
remarks:
1. i would like to see the stats of the planet added to the construction queue because i decide what i build on the stats of the planet. Now i have to go back to check how many minerals there are and so on.

2. Remember the position in the scroll bar: it's an unbelievable pain to check larger scroll lists now. Weird thing is, the one in ships design remembers the position while for instance the one used to see all colonies does not. Shouldn't be to hard to fix it.

thanks for any info

Any resemblance between what the AI says and what the AI does is purely coincidental. Don't believe them in cases like this.

It can be done. What you need is to have enough mines onboard to make a full drop at each location. For example, if you can drop 20 mines in one turn, and want to drop at three spots, you must be carrying 60 mines (well, at least 41, but then you will get only one mine at the third spot). You cannot get the minelayer to "launch remotely" a variable number. It always drops the max.

Just RIGHT click on the planet in the construction window.

That's all I know. I hope someone brighter than I can help with the others.
