I wouldn't mind having the Last known scan of a system staying on the screen for that system instead of disappearing as soon as you don't have a colony/ship/treaty/etc giving you that information. Maybe put a little bit of information in a corner stating the amount of turns it's been since you Last scanned that system or something.

Would be -very- useful for those treacherous types who get a military/partnership treaty just so they can figure out where all the spaceports/resupply depots/space yards are.

Not that I'm one of those people. Nope. Not me.

Maybe traits besides atmosphere breathed should travel with races as well. Say, resource gathering traits, plague immunity, etc.

Some traits should be empire-based while others should be racial-based. (Yes, sort of like MOO2. Capturing Silicoids could make those toxic worlds useable. Assuming you weren't overrun by the Silicoid Empire.)

How about a setting to automatically remove Climate Control Facilities, Atmosphere fixers, etc, when the task is done....you get the message that "the atmosphere is breatheable, Atomsphere fixer scrapped."

Spyder,

That was fixed in the patch.

6. Fixed - AI should check if the planet already has the desired atmosphere
before building an atmospheric converter.
7. Fixed - AI should scrap any atmospheric converters if the desired
atmosphere has been attained on the planet.

The patch .txt file addresses this issue for the AI, but is there such an option for the human player(s)?

One of the most annoying thing if you have the retrofit minister on is the message(s) 'cannot retrofit xxx because as cargo.'
If as cargo, the minister can have a check prior to try to retrofit, right ?

I received several times this:'A cloaked vehicle cannot launch units into space'.
1- I don't have any cloacked ship.
2- this report to a battle of 2 AI's.

This message replay about 100 times (i think is the number of fighters inside the cloacked carriers).
