Things that I want to see (if possible)

from GalCiv2 Forums
1 Show the amount of money gain / loss by turn side by side with the total amount.
2 In the lease value, show xxx for yy turns, zzz for yy1 turns, etc.
3 In the governors add upgrade all ships from model xx to model yy
4 In colonies show 'slots' free'
5 The same for Starbases

1 Check the financial screen if you want this... personally I'd prefer it if the basic HUD wasn't cluttered up. If you look at the little symbol next to your current cash, its colour represents whether you're making/loosing money.

2. Er... Doesn't it already do this?

3. Already there, kinda. Just find one of the ships of the type to upgrade, and when you upgrade it, check the 'upgrade all of class' checkbox.

4. Would be nice I guess. Remember that you can see if there are some empty spaces by looking for the hammer icon, it just doesn't say how many. Which screen are you talking about here?

5. It's there if you double click on it. I'd prefer if it told you WHICH modules you could still build though, as I can never keep track.

6. Buy an orbital fleet manager.

7. Not quite sure what you mean.

8. There are tons of extra things I'd like to see in the minimap... this is not the highest priority (e.g. Option to show ONLY planets with class more than 0).

@ #2

That suggestion number 8 would be nice.

The one UI change I would like to see is upgrading. It´s very frustrating at times to hunt for the upgrade button. Braking up fleets etc, you know the drill

well you can allways use the shortcut : U it is a faster way to upgrade believe me or in a other way control u but then cheats have to be activated (sometimes the game is slowing down and if you wanna speed it up then cheats are unavoiddble

7 - If you send a ship / fleet to point x,y it place info reporting time to arrival and a circle in the exat location.

Reloading the game that don't appear.

2 - In the economic screen you have in the expense itens one that say lease xxx.
Is better (i think) if it say lease yyy at 3 weeks, zzz at 20 weeks, total lease xxx.
This way, is beter to calculate your next turns income / expenses....

in 1.1 7 is done constantly. Clicking on a ship shows route and time.

Yes, but that is not what i say....
If you have say, 6/10 diferent ships going to a point x,y and you zoom in x,y you see a small circle in the exact location and the ETA of the ships.

That don't appear after save/exit/reload.......
