In my short trip, I have decided to list the issues I have had with the game...
1: The chat system, currently, if you want to message a team, it is a real pain to do so. It is like there is a command for chatting to allied faction, command for using the yell, and command for chatting to targeting. Yet nothing to chat to the enemy in general with.
2: This has been a long-time issue, but now with the build diamonds slightly smaller, it is a bigger pain to actually see the diamonds on the lit side of the planet. Diamonds should have a easily-visible color, such as red.
3: Shipyards need a resource transfer rate scrollbar. Sometimes I want a planet that is cranking out materials to transfer everything it has to another planet. If this is possible, this will also remove the need for more than 1 shipyards.
4: Map editor does not work, gives "Failed to Load ships" Error
5: It is impossible to command ground troops, I assigned each ground troop a defend order, than unloaded them all on the planet. Apparently they lost their order the minute they touched down, and with them moving around on a tiny world, it is impossible to re-issue the order.
6: Some Hotkeys interfere with others, example, the ordering inf hotkeys and the distress hotkey.

#1, the chat system, it stinks. Our current system is so much better, I wonder why it was changed in the first place?
#2 is a pain yes. Can't see the diamonds a lot of times.
For #3, you mean starports right?
For #5, I suggested a while ago that infantry should be able to receive their orders before unloading, and Faustus said he'd include it.
And #6 is also true. Some of the infantry orders have to be done by clicking which takes more time.
