I am a great fan of SE4 gold and I read some of the ideas given here, but so far, I would have only one wish:

Auto-Proceeding in simulanteous/multiple machines gameplay.

SE4G was not the 4x game of our choice on LAN parties because of one reason: We like to play from the beginning (1 planet, low tech etc...) and this makes the first turns rather short. And with manual proceeding it simply took too long to be fun.

So a routine which automatically proceeds the turn when all player order files have been received - and on the other hand the player machines automatically start playing the next turn when the turn was proceeded - would greatly speed up gameplay. This surely should be optional (Checkbox?).

I don't know if this was mentioned already (didn't take the time to read all 140+ pages) but that would be my ultimate wish for SE5.
