I have a few questions after playing with Beta2 for a little bit:
1) When you put a ship on autopilot, is there anyway to go back later and figure out what the ship's destination is? If not, it would be good to draw a line from a ship to its destination when you click on it.
2) If you set a colony's social or military project to Nothing, does the production get diverted to the other categories?
3) Is there any way to tell how fast a colony's population is growing? It would be useful to be able to see how many colonists were added in the last year. I've found myself pretty much depopulating my planets by building too many colony ships, and data on population growth would help me to plan this better.
4) How is production related to population? When I send half a colony's population off in a colony ship, I haven't noticed any effect on project contruction time.
5) Does the cost of purchasing a ship or project change as more progress is made towards its construction? I haven't seen much difference between the cost of building a ship whether the time remaining is 20 months or one.
6) I've found one bug with the planet list in the right side of the UI. When I click on a planet, I see the planet screen with the list of social projects I can build. This list should change from planet to planet depending on what projects have already been built. As near as I can tell, the list is built based on the first planet on which I click, and then doesn't get updated when I click on others.
Thanks,
