Multiadd wouldn't have helped you, Tesco; it doesn't do facilities.

I remember my longest turn was over two hours, but I don't remember the details of why, save that it was a PBW game with a complicated diplomatic situation.

Try clicking the Next colony button, or Ctrl-C hotkey. Saves you having to go from system to system on the map clicking planets. And you can use the Q hotkey to go to the build queue screen.

You could setup a fill queue with your new facility , but that wouldn't help in those cases when you are removing or reordering exsisting queues.

My longest turn happened in a sinlge player vanilla game I'm currently in. As the story goes, I'm building mostly baseships with some dreadnaught construction to reinforce my fleets. I'm using automatic move to so as to keep my ships in order. Normally only about 10-20 ships finish construction in a turn, so waiting for them to move is no problem. But then some rare occurence happened where nearly all of my construction yards finished constructing their ships at the same time and I ended up waiting for more than 20 minutes for my ships to finish moving.

Clearly Aaron needs to put more things in SE:V to be able to do similar things on multiple planets at a time. Like to be able to assign planets to Groups, or something. If possible, planets could be in multiple Groups.

I have been saying that for years.

Does anyone know if saving mid turn will be an option? If it is I'll play it.
