- The dark blue species color on black background is very hard to read for me (and probably a percentage of other people)
perhaps it can be adjusted by mixing some white in the dark blue

I agree about the problem and will take a look at it. In the meantime you could take care of it for yourself by experimenting with changing the "Pure Blue" color in default/empire_colors.txt

- you could maybe lend a working color set from linux console themes http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized

- Pedia description of the Trans Spatial Drive needs a mention of the Advanced Engineering Bay dependency

I've updated some of the darker empire colors now.

thanks I noticed it

- late game stage play against bots is kinda boring

it becomes a drag to manage the units even with a default small 150 system universe, and all the while you feel you already won and it cant escape you

perhaps some balancing shoudl be doen there (dunno what)

I do see bots build all the advanced weapons though, perhaps that should be made slightly more agressive
rush them to the front immediately

also alliances, I havent been able to use diplomacy a single time, I get rejected every time

[pheldens]

I guess the wining condition should be capture all enemy faction planets and units,
independent non empires are usually no threat

[MatGB]

For diplomacy, bear in mind Maniacal AIs will always reject advances, and most AIs on Max=Maniacal will be that, set it to Aggressive and you might get somewhere (although it's still only a very barebones implementation there's no real decision making involved, yet.

- AI gives scripting errors every turn in the message display, when the opponent is no longer.

- the new dark blue is still hard to read, but a bit better

Hopefully the same ones that have already been fixed. Or are you seeing something different?

[pheldens]

current git has some issue where the fleet window sometimes stays minimized, untill you toggle message window


edit maybe fixed in git ttyl

[pheldens]

plus the ai seems to have gotten better, or i dumber, lost 4 games in a row

nope this is still broken occasionally in commit da87e3fa37f121601e297b1cd8057efe99d60728



I dont have the time to bisect where it was broken
but probably the fleetwindow changes in past days

Mel apparently has already a fix ready.

your post is dated 1 day ago, but with current checkout, it still happens, but less, Its too complicated for me to see what the exact conditions are
