Summary0017300: Automatisation Toggles and Views
DescriptionExtracted from: http://www.arcengames.com/forums/index.php/topic,17795.0.html

1) Auto-Reconstruct destroyed buildings with remaining crowns at turn's end
2) Auto-Attack enemies/rogues with remaining power at turn's end
3) Auto-place harvesters (etc.) on unclaimed resources with remaining crowns at turn's end

4) Cycle through unclaimed resources in range
5) Cycle through visible wonders
6) Cycle through visible enemies
7) Cycle through visible rogues

8) The big red FIRE ZE MISSILES button. It would do the same as 2), but without having to end the turn. And with a big red button and a sound effect.

Also, some way of "highlighting" enemy buildings.

The main one of these:

* Now when you end a turn with valid attacks still possible against hostiles, the game runs the normal AI-attack-planning logic for you (only for attack buildings with the counter attack flag, so it's not going to turn a cobalt bomb launcher into an automatic extinction event dispenser) before starting the AI threads up.

It actually feels pretty darn glorious, I have to say -- I'm surprised at what a big difference it makes, but I find this suddenly way more fun when surrounded by monsters.

Coming in some future update:

-- Left-clicking a destroyed building that belonged to you should automatically put you into placement mode for that type of building.

-- Left-clicking a tile with a visible resource on it that is not already being harvested by someone should automatically put you into the placement mode for the appropriate type of harvester for that resource (based on if it is a land or water tile, too).
--- Even if you are out of range of this -- at least then you’ll be able to see you’re out of range.
