Wow and suggestions!

In beta we had an iWin button. We just found there was too much conflict because the game couldn't figure out who was really supposed to win...

As Lee pointed out the auto explore was brought up on more than one occasion. We decided against it, since it made the game much too easy.

As for the unexplored sector and sending a probe the question would be an idle probe from where? maybe I can add a navigate command to the ship listing screen. Maybe add another tab to sort ships by type, so you can see all your idle ships, then command them. Although I would have no idea which one you really pulled...

Hmmm.. At any rate.. I digress.. You could select a probe, go to the sector level then choose a sector and click the check mark with out entering the system. No idea if you discovered that. It will navigate to that sector, and orbit the sun.

Hey all. Probes... Here is my issue. As I mentioned in another post: It isn't so much that there is no auto explore, but that the information attained is very difficult to manage. When I send a probe currently, I must tell it to go to a planet to actually see that planets info. Then if I leave, that info is not retained. Why? It forces me to make a note (not functioning yet) or write myself an in game mail message to keep track of those planets... Why??

Ideally, once a probe enters a solar system it would see the planet info there withou having to go to each one individually and then actually RETAIN that info.
Thoughts??
