We all know (most of us - that is) by now -- that SE IV can be a micro-management nightmare.

One of those nightmares was upgrading a facility on a zillion planets. This is a breeze if you click on the Planet icon (upper left) and then click on Upgrade Facilities. Yahoo!

This doesn't help - though - for those inevitable 'lost' planets whom you (the emperor or whatever) has neglected to fill the build queue. Now you have to wade through a zillion planets to find the ones that have some slots open.

If there's a way of showing just the 'open-slot' planets -- I haven't found it yet. But wouldn't it be nice if you could set the list so that only undeveloped or partially undeveloped planets would show up?

Works for me!

If you select the wrench (constuction queue menu) that lists all the planets - click on the heading "Construction Queue" - that will sort them by alphabetically order showing all the empty queues at the top.

A print out would be a nice feature. Would also allow a person to more objectively compare the games he played.

True that helps but still the ability to filter it and only show those planets with space available would be very nice.

Just sort it by # of facility slots used.
Zip to the bottom and check on all of the planets with zero facilities built.

You can also scan the list to see if any planets aren't full of facilites, and doublecheck them.

I would like the AI to check its current treaty status before it proposes one, and cancel the proposal if it already has that treaty with you.

I'm tired of getting Partnership proposals from my partners every turn.
