No scrapping via mail....too easy. It can be so fun to mess up some kind of tech trading...w/l, pop drop or scrapper methods have multiple was of screwing up, plus enemies being able to mess with them.

Getting back to the messaging system.

One change I'd like to see is the ability to pick specific races for messages instead of just the option of everyone. Maybe a couple user-defined teams slots?

Another is the ability to click on planets names to see them. What do you usually do when you don't know where the hell Apple is? You go to view, then find and type the darn name in and voila! How to code it? Don't have the faintest idea.

Why does it always say "someone" swept your mines when the game knows damn well who the offending party is(are).

Why does the battle messages sometimes refer to a battle with a race when you just happened to fight over their planet with another race? Not too important, but I'm nitpicky.

Should be able to copy message without having to resize window.

Should be able to forward battle scenes. Might be a good way to send designs? Hell, we all like a good battle and don't always want to share passwords.

Combine the action messages "Large Freighter #157 has beamed 46200 Colonists to Nougut and completed it's assigned orders"

Combine multiple terraforming messages on same planet and then list end value since I always check it out anyway. I may be nuts too.

Silly suggestion: Change the message "Your mines have inflicted 1500 damage points, but you didn't manage to destroy any ships." to say "but you only managed to scratch the paint on their ships."

Silly suggestion #2: allow smilies.
