Re: Interesting Features I would like
yeah, I usually turn down random events 'cause they are ALWAYS negative. If an occaisional positive one came along, it would be worth turing it up a step or two.

Re: Interesting Features I would like
Atrocities-
I think the "Baron" had also mentioned in a previous thread that he was working on some "positive" random events. If you have the inclination, perhaps you and the Baron should compare notes and create a small mod to this file that "adds" some positive events. You can then post it for the rest of us and, provided it only added events and was "AI neutral", perhaps Aaron might include it in the next patch

Re: Interesting Features I would like
One imporvement I would like to see is in the PBEM system. I don't understand why they can't handle PBEM like Age of Wonders does. It AUTOMATICALLY sends and receives the game turns (and prunes old game files). It's makes PBEM so nice.
In SEIV, I have to open my mail client, save the file in a certain directory, play the turn, save the file, open that directory, open a new mail message, attach the file, choose the recipient and send it.
In AOW it's just "End Turn" and everything else is automatic. It was the best PEBM system I've ever used.

Re: Interesting Features I would like
I wish the simultaneous turn option didn't force the program to actually close at the end of a turn, it should just go to the main menu. Playing on a Lan is a pain.
BTW, is there ANY way to not have automatic battles when playing by email?

Re: Interesting Features I would like
Harkonis,
No PBEM is always automatic. Or else you would have to send a file for each turn of combat to each player. Can you say slow game down alot?
