One thing that I really dislike about SEIV

Everyone has at least one thing that just bugs them about the game. Some its an AI issue, others graphics; etc, but for me it's the GRID.

I'm not quite sure I understand what your complaint is; you do know that you can turn off the grid display in Empire Options? Or are you talking about something else entirely?

human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid

I hate after a while of playing in the combat screen, the mouse will F-up and be offset about one game square to the left. This then carries back over to the game interface.
Only way to fix it is to reboot it.
Don't know if it's a game bug, or a personal problem.
I'd rather see a real galaxy too honestly.
Also, allow ships to be larger then 1 square.
I hate trying to make escorts look like fleas.

I hate how those damned pink elephents won't leave me alone.

I like the funny comments in this post. However, I don't like the Selection Boxes (in the game, not the Posts) and how they deal with clicking in the scroll bar. For instance, in the log window - how if you have a long log, you can't just click in the open space of the scroll bar. It should (like 99% of other Win apps) just do a 'Page Down' kinda' thing.

Also, as said many times before:

I WANT MY RIGHT CLICK BACK!!!! (Please, please, please, etc.)

The one thing I don't like is not being able to remove planets from my list that are not in my claimed systems when I want to search for new colonies. I would like to tell it to exclude all planets outside my borders.
(yes I have suggested this to MM)

I usually use the Systems to Avoid markers to get around that, but I agree that more display options would be nice.
