6. Writing the AI code itself would probably be a bigger problem than points 1-5 together AI still doesn't use small aircraft as PD or against bombers.

Clearly we need broadside heavy weapons, with bigger arc of fire than forward mounts as bonus

1. Gas miner
I'm also missing the ability to do anything with planetoids, like transforming them in some sort of mining station. Or (small) planet cracker technology?

2. Planetary Bombardment
Agree, I would love to have special ships designed for proper bombardment, instead of this brute force ...

Game 7694

Looking at Humans, they are very angry with Yorals. Yorals say they have polite relations with Humans. In less than 10 turns Yoral annexed Humans (I guess they asked politely )

Got something weird in my game: 2 factions with "very angry" relations form an alliance and ultimately one annexed the other. Hate each other so much that got married?
Also, way to turn all my diplomatic points into dust, invested in agreements with the now non-existing faction :evil:

On other ...

Game_7621 is old bug again: Marauder "encounter", but the only ship in the system is Tinker's. Even worse, I think these particular marauders are the only ones I refused to pay tribute on first encounter because they are at NW corner of the galaxy, way far from my territory.

Also, reminder that ...

In short, "bookmark" planet in the planets list so we don't have to memorize the name?

Marauder encounter... I met them like 100 turns ago. And they aren't in that system...

*Wrenches/Labor) But yes, is silly. We also had the problem of a Tank/Mech unit being more expensive than Transport with Tank/Mech built-in it because of the discount production of ships.

Shield Capacitor: Shields improve along with weapons, but as time goes by there are (usually) also more ships involved in each battle, which will be focusing all their weapons in the weakest/closest target. Eventually, there is a very small margin between getting shot enough to charge it but not ...

Has been in the game before 2018, Phidi do really own that friendly trait

the Colonial fleet jumped down to Regulus, where they made a heroic but ultimately disastrous attempt to capture the heavily defended Orthin colony on Regulus III I still had the savegame, so I moved a ship to witness that battle. The colonial fleet destroyed 1 base, then they simply ran out of ...

Not a bug per se, but weird behaviour of the AI:

The Ashdar Colonials sent a Colony ship with quite the a escort fleet to Schedar (1 planet available for colonization)
