Further beta 4b comments
Question –when you change manufacturing, is it really supposed to return ‘zero’ progress, to the next selected item? Military progress seems to include progess towards current item if you change it.
Re - the Major and initial yearly reports – about the background and progress of the Terrans. – It would be nice if these had voice over narration (like hitchhikers guide?).
When the planet sidebar is up and you cycle through the turns, the progress toward your target is still not shown next to the planets, and I really think it should be.
On the research screen, a pop-up would be very worthwhile showing the value of what the research article does.
Smoothing the ‘hold and scroll’ on the mini map browse would be nice as it’s a bit jerky at the moment.
All discoveries for anomalies are currently 5%. Boring! Why not between 1% and 10%? Add some drama!.
Ship list – what’s going on here? When I click on a ship from this list I should get a response, not a complex bounce-back to the list depending upon what the ship is doing, it should over-ride the current orders.
Trade ship range is FAR to long twice as long as it should be.
Early-game ship range is still 25% to long, de-valuing research and exploration, reducing the sense of exploration greatly.
Monthly reports – better as bar charts.
Hang. Threading? – In game year, Sept 2189. Colony ship sent to unusual situation:- Star Hinura with 5 planets with 4 of 5 at class 16, one class 16 selected for destination of colony ship, game hung until I clicked about a bit.
