Only flaw I could find was that I managed to click more than once on the turnbutton so I got a GNN message ontop of the planetscreen that the earlies GNN brought up.

That is:
1. I clicked "turn" twice.
2. GNN message showed military or social completions
3. GNN brought up the planet screen
4. Immediatly after the planetscreen was brought up a new GNN message showes as no2 ontop of the planetscreen even tho I didnt do "turn" in between. It probably took that from the doubleclick earlier.

The latest version is still only showing two events in the window at a time. I thought Cari wanted it to show three?

Also,
the event queueing for colonisation is slighty strange if a colonisation event occurs. While the events wait for you to select a planet, the rest of the events then occur even if a pop-up window appears for an event from that planet. I think a colonisation event shoul delay other events until you have dealt with it.

Yeah, I wanted it to show three, but someone would have to go and remove those extra pixels that are making them just slightly too big to show three, and there have been other higher priority things to worry about.

Arrghh...I thought that I had gotten that fixed...something must be resetting one of my variables when that screen opens...

With the latest build I can get two GNN announcements right after eachother (by "queueing" clicks on the turn button - accidently doubleclicks)

I'd be glad if the turn-button wont accept clicks until I'm finished witht the planetscreens that the GNN-popup brings up.

I'm not sure about that. It would depend on what the messages are. Someone declairs war, I want to stop. A ship has been built, ok, no big deal, I can deal with it in a couple of turns and I am weighting for that fusion plant to be built on Sol 5 which is due in 3 turns....

It's all a difference of scale

How about an "are you sure" popup if you have not done all of your manual ship
movements.
