I agree that not all the state needs to be sent - however keeping track of orders like this will get tricky. Orders can maybe consist of state that the user can change.

e.g. for Fleets the position etc. can't change. However the Name and Waypoint data can change. The client can just write the fleet name and new waypoint data into the orders which the server can check and apply. This is a lot eaiser than trying to work out what waypoints have changed and then applying that diff at the other end.

Merge/Split is tricker. Maybe the fleets sent above also contain current ships and cargo levels. The server can see what fleets it sent the client and can find what fleets exist now, and as long as total cargo & ships at any given position is consistent then it's all good

In fact for fleets maybe it is just simpler to dump all the Fleet State into the orders, then the server just looks at each one and applies relevant changes and ignores things like position. Or if it sees that a fleet has magically moved then it can flag that player as cheating?

Again for stars send the whole production queue. The server can check that the planet can produce that stuff (i.e. make sure that Starbase exists before trying to build a ship)
