Default Re: Ultimate Wish List

In my Last game, I was working at moving colonists around. It was getting kinda tedious so I thought about renaming planets so I could see if what, if any, different atmosphere breathing colonists they needed. So, I was naming all the domed oxygen planets _O - <name> and the domed ones O - name.

Of course, this didn't Last long because the horrible User Interface prompted me to uninstall the game... again.... today!

If I could create my own turn file, then I could write code to say: rename all the domed Methane colonies _M - <name>. Then, if I were really clever, I might write code that calculated the distance between the closest ship with cargo capacity to a world that had Methane breathing colonists on it versus its distance to the colony with the Methane breathers.

Well, as I said, and as you've said, it's pretty doggone complicated and wouldn't yield even 1/100th the cost of adding it to the game. That's why I called it a Wish List.
