An option to not have to wait for ship move animation would be great. As it is, with larger games it can take more than 10 minutes for a single turn because at a tenth of a second (estimate) per movement point, and 6000 movement points on the board that takes 10 minutes to work through. Makes the game incredibly dull in the late game. Click, go off and do something else for 10 minutes, come back, repeat.

United planets vote to make constructors have a minimum speed of 5 p/turn instead sets the speed equal to 5 per turn (plus bonuses) regardless of number of engines present. Ships that should be going 20/turn or 30/turn instead go 9 (I think that is 5 plus bonuses). Dropping out of the UP made the constructors get their propper speed back. I don't know how other amounts affects that.
Three things to reduce a few tedious aspects of an otherwise great game. 1) How about an option make ships just jump to their destinations each turn? I tend to use very fast ships, but it takes way too long for every ship on the map to move one square after another to their destination. 2) Also how about an option for constructor ships to move to the nearest starbase that can benefit from an extra module? It is kind of a hassle to
