Default Re: Newbie question - Demo of SEIV Gold

It occurs to me that this problem could be solved once and for all by changing the TimeToComplete text from "Never" to "Never: No Population." Or, even better, by giving a warning message when you put something in the queue for a zero-pop planet. Or, best of all, by giving a warning and asking for confirmation when a "MoveTo" order is given to an empty colonizer. (And ideally there would also be a check box for "Don't give this warning again" for experienced players.) Newbies often do not read the manual, no matter how good it is, and even old pros mess up now and then.
