It is just my opinion, but I would say that using an utility to do something that cannot be done with the standard Stars! interface would be cheating, unless all players have agreed that using that utility is legal, and all players have access to that utility.

That is why I made the testbed creator available to everybody since it makes battle simulations at awful lot easier to create, it's the reason I'll be making it easier to use, I have no problems editing the xml config file but some people may. With any other utility I write that makes things easier I'll be making thost available too if I'm going to want to use them.

I doubt it's even possible to do what I want since I suspect that stars will process the queues in the x file before the planet is colonised, even if you colonise as a waypoint 0 order.

I suspect it will update the planet queue as soon as it meets them in the turn file before any turn generation at all has taken place and will complain that the x file is corrupt or will ignore it completely. I know that's what I did in when I started looking at a turn generator.

Trying it out though to see whether it works or not is likely to lead to an app that lets you edit your queues which will be useful as m.a@stars mentions above.
