If you want to mess with the zoom settings use sins of a solar empire for inspiration. if you zoom out you units change to icons.

But the devs are overworked as it is so this won't happen.
In general, if you see glowing, pulsating things in the game, you should click on them.

Hahahaha, it's good that you are willing to speak for the devs ;)

Sins of a Solar Empire "imported" this system from the Homeworld series. I'd call it a hybrid between Homeworld and Galactic Civilizations :cool:

I think this fits here and haven't seen it anywhere else.

Trucks repair your damaged buildings if they are near them and damaged automatically. Trucks can also repair allied buildings, but don't do it automatically. Is this possible to make happen? Any reason it has not been implimented? I left a truck near some allied hardpoints and it just sat there and let them die without doing a thing. :-S
Full of ideas - Most are probably useless. Feel free to ignore them :)

Just let trucks be possible to aid another truck. Truck A has a build queue, and i got 3 other trucks free after a while. RIgbht now ( afaik ) i need to select all4 trucks and reclick the missing queue to make them build all stuff.
Why not just select the free trucks and click right once onto the building truck and the free ones get the remaining orders of the building one too ? I am not sure if this is possible by the protect unit function already though, if so nevermind.
I like the idea suggested here. I hope it is feasible. [/back to lurking mode, since I can't play or test right now.]
My game handle is Cosmic Raven or Cosmic Raven 68

Hmmm, I think that trucks should be automatically assigned to repair allied units if set to "Follow", but not if set to "Guard", and shouldn't move to repair your own if set to "Hold position". But it sounds familiar, perhaps some if not all of this is already implemented.

You all did take a good look at the changelogs before posting, didn't you? It's good to make this before suggesting something.
