Street's List of Probably Bad Ideas

[AnrDaemon]

"This like that" is not telling anybody anything. Please actually explain what you mean/how your envisioned feature would work.

New Idea:

- The ability to have variations of one 'class' of ship that can be refitted into each other

Already possible or planned to be possible to reallocate internal space of a ship. (Calling @Deantwo )

I've got tons of half-baked ideas

Please bake them first, and post a separate topic for each idea.

- The ability to Warp through unexplored space, or at the very least be able to scan long-distance pathways between systems.

There's no blocking or anything to stop you from doing that.
What's the problem?

- Some sort of planet/starkiller weapon (EXTERMINATUS).

Not going to happen.
And see previous topics on "expensive".

- The ability to properly access and modify the mission orders of ships in other systems/sectors

Load them to your ship, modify and send back.

- Basic and Advanced options for the Designer (Making ships is seriously hard, man)

Complain to Haxus, he got this idea of "full 3d designer" hard into his head.

- More superstructures, like Dyson spheres and man-made planets, and the ability to create superstructures.

Highly questionable. Why? What gameplay purpose they would serve?

- The ability to increase the amount of Officers a planet can produce.

No. If you need more officers - go colonize more planets.

- Automated construction of colonies/cities. Maybe you can save a layout, and have a big ol' ship carry materials and people, and tell an officer to build a colony.

Pre-planned cities were suggested already, but largely got shot into the head with advent of new style buildings. You can literally build an entire city out of 3-4 buildings and call it a day.
Which does not make any sense, not entertaining at all, and leaves more challenges to the designer, than serves any gameplay purposes.
