3. Peaceful or Diplomatic win conditions.
Try the "Galaxy at peace for X turns" condition.

If you can get all the races to stop fighting, and come to a peaceful coexistance, game over, you win.

AI Diplomacy, IMHO, I would like to see the AI intell tweaked up for most of the races, some are still to easy to use intel against.

I would like to see facility effects stack between families (but not within the same family). I would also like to see all modifiers multiply rather than add.

It would be better if we could choose for each component, facility etc. if each ability on it stacks or not. Basically, take all stacking abilities (of the same type) on a ship, add them up (multiply, whatever). Then, compare to all non-stacking abilities. The ship gets whatever of these bonuses is best.

Put a note in the log when a ship doesn't retrofit.

Tell me why a planet is rioting.

The wait clock, that comes up when loading the game, couldn't the handles move around?
That would be the most valued and used improvement, almost enough to name it SE5 by this update only

Aaron!

I'm a long time se4 fan... i bought both se4 and se4 gold

please please add these - they are THE MOST IMPORTANT imho

1. Save partial turns for multiplayer games... with current pbw games, a turn often takes more than a few hours... ie, more than a couple of sittings - please allow partial saves turns. Better yet, when you hit end turn, allow the system to load that 'turn' file and continue issueing commands, thus modifying the players turn file.

2. SHIP combat INITIATIVE. please add something which interleaves the ship movement and shooting in combat... base it on speed and experience please -- fastest and most experienced crews go first Don't let ALL ships for one side go first... it just wrecks the game.

I would like flexible, moddable retrofit options.

For example, an organic race that can retrofit ships to larger sizes at the expense of experience.
It would simulate organic growth, and the race could be restricted to only building baby-escorts, then growing them slowly into warrior-dreadnoughts with incubator-training facilities.

Make Emissive Armor stack.

Not that the emissive effects should stack together and apply to every shot, but that each time an Emissive component is damage the Emissive bonus is taken off anew.
