Random Events Mod?

A random event I would like to see is the thing from the civilization series that pops up every now and then and tells you whos what rank in what ranking, like "Federation is #1 in Technology Klingons are #2" I think any and all strategy games should have this.

I have not had a random event in SE5 so I do not know how they work. Can you make decisions in them, like with King of Dragon Pass and Galactic Civilizations? Or is it just a screen with a description?

A screen telling you what has happened or is about to happen. Only information is displayed, no decision process is going on.

Spectator:
SE does one order better; you can simply enable score displays for all empires when you start the game. Then, whenever you want, you can see who is in first place.

Chances are by turn 100 your going to be so far ahead of the AI that checking your score will become pointless.

Can I get an AMEN!

AMEN!!! Yes, I know but still, I always turn the score checking thing off, I dont want to know how far behind they are, I just want to know who's in what place, AFAIK it gives a breakdown of the scores.

Yeah, that's why I mentioned MoO2's 'Galactic News'. It basically came with a report every 15-20 turns about who had the strongest military might or technology, etc. And then, when for instance a space monster spawned, that too would appear in the news.
