Manual, suggest, fully automate

Post by nukkxx5058 »

Is there any good reason why the option "suggest" is not available for tax rate, troops recruitment, fleet formation, research and design ?

Basically its like automatic, only it gets your final say before doing anything.

I think regarding troop recruitment it would bug you constantly. I got no clue why it isn´t available for Research and taxes.

Auto-taxes are bad. Or, I just think they're bad and there's a good reason in there somewhere for taxing a brand new planet at 8%, instead of 0% or 1%?

I´m with you. It bugs me to make it manual, but the results of auto taxation make me mad.[:D]

Ok for troops. I agree. Then I'm always using taxation in manual so no problem. But research and design would be nice on "suggest" I think.

I agree. Especially design. If I could just get a chance to approve/modify/decline the AI designs before they retrofit, that would fix every single last problem I have with Ship Design's ease-of-use.

This is exactly the point ! Hope the devs will think about it in a future patch.
