... and while we're at it, I'd really like the warning box for redundant system-wide (and planetary) facilities to check facilities in other planet's construction queues as well as those that have already been built.

Oh, and self-dismantling atmospheric conVersion facilities would be nice, too

I am not sure this is hardwired or 'moddable' but I would like to see point defense and mines 'miss' once in a while and also sensors that are not one hundred percent. And the ablity to research a faclity that will let you research a technology or trait that your race does not have access to in the inital setup.

I'd like to see the ability to 'Remote Launch" using Waypoints instead of having to scroll to planet, warp point, etc.

I'd also like more than 10 way points.

Being able to edit the order queue would be nice. Now all you can do is cancel it and start over.

Also - when clicking on the "Wrench" (construction queue) I'd like the entire queue to be shown - not an empty list - when using Multi-Add. I know you can see what's being built (a t least 3 somethings) before you hit Multi-Add - but that gets lost because you can't move the Multi-Add dialog.

Not being able to move overlapping windows is a pita. There are some API's available to activate that feature.

Something which will probably never come: If combat replay in simultaneous games would show which components are damaged, I would become a collector of classic battles and never leave the house again. This would really help to understand what's going on in battles.

Anyone have any idea if there actually is another patch planned or just work on SEV?

SEV is a long ways off.
