Don't allow ships to be given to Dead/Open races
This is to block the Crystal/Privateer hole that allows HUGE accumulation of Achievement points due to giving a ship to a Dead or Open race, then doing a tow-capture on it.
The solution is to not allow the gs? FCs to give ships to Dead or Open races. While this won't completely close the hole, it will make it harder and riskier to use.

Offer a Championship Match with "Allies=1"
Since a large majority of us play Planets where we are allowed 1 ally, why not try a Championship Match that emulates our most common format? Have the winning two players crowned Emperor and Co-Emperor, while awarding the player with the most planets the added advantage of creating his new ship. This, I think, would lessen the back-stabbing and add to the general enjoyment we all receive when teaming with another player.

Bug: player name not sanitized in link to player account
It is possible for a player's name to contain special characters. For example:
>>mcn_ninja_nation<<If I look at a game that this player is playing in, and click on their name hoping to view their account, the link is incorrect because the "greater than" and "less than" symbols in their name are not sanitized before adding them to a URL.
http://planets.nu/#/sector/119168It would be okay to just prevent special characters in user names. If such characters are allowed, then user names need to be sanitized when used as part of links.

Allow primary enemy to override alliance-enforced peace
Sometimes you need to take ownership of a world (by agreement) from an ally (full or peace/info only). Currently this can only be down by ground assault. Suggest allowing attacks triggered by primary enemy setting to go ahead regardless of alliance status - primary enemy is totally unambiguous and I can see no situation where this would cause a problem (apart from just forgetting to remove a very stale settings, which can happen any time when an informal peace is in effect anyway, and it's the player's own fault)

Improve Starmap and Notes functionality
If my sensors show a ship moving in the distance, a ship explodes at long range or when there`s a meteor shower, I would like to have the possibility to use markers on a starmap layer in order to remember those places.

Fix the text format of host run email notifications (plain-text linebreaks are are gone)
Two days ago, I noticed that the email I am getting when the host runs has changed: The text representation now misses line breaks. However, I like my email client to display text-only messages. I would like to ask you to change the email notification format back to what it was before the change.
Example:
The emails contain the "plain-text" as
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64==> Before the change, the code was
Sm9obmRvZSBTZWN0b3IgVHVybiAxMSANCiAgDQogR2FtZSBTY2hlZHVsZTogDQog
==> which decodes to:
Johndoe Sector Turn 11Game Schedule:

Add a new friendly code: gs*
gs*: two ships exchange crews. Will only work if there are exactly two ships with this fc on the same location. Options to be decided on:
- either needs a clan on each ship,
- or both ships get the crew count of the other ship (limited to the maximum crew count of course)If the 'two ships' rule is hard to do, you /could/ do a "shift all crews to the next higher ID, and the highest to the lowest (or visa versa)". This would make a threesome (...) possible - and would allow smart cloakers to do 'interesting'…

let players discontinued from play, due to elimination, be permitted one final turn, turn planets to allies, drop allies, + change codes.
as above call it housekeeping, or final turn, end of player game, or what ever, so the player eliminated can do the above for his/her allies.

Add the required date format by the "Next Host" field in the Edit Game form.
I am currently running my first game with a few friends. It would avoid confusion if the EDIT GAME form was updated so that the format for the "Next Host" field was provided, just as you do for the "Host Time" field.
This is because the usual date formats in UK & US differ: i.e. day/month/year instead of the month/day/year format used here. This leads to the risk of the date being entered wrong and the host running at the wrong time.

I don't have an idea so much as a question. What do you do if you believe a player is playing two races in the same game with different log
Its not an idea but a question. I believe a player has resigned from a game purchased two other logins and entered the same game. The two logins are with in days of each other and no history. What do you do?

Bug: Trying to start a new game.
I got this error when creating a new game:
Cannot convert null to 'int' because it is a non-nullable value type at CallSite.Target(Closure , CallSite , Object ) at PlanetsAPI.AccountActions2.createcustomgame(Account account, Object settings) in
c:\Users\Joshua\Documents\Dev\Planets\PlanetsAPI\v2\AccountActions.cs:line 2102If it is because I can have a max of 2 games going at once as a free player, then maybe a different error message?
Thanks

Replacement Robot
Let the automatic, mindless computer send automatic replacement notifications to (ranked) race players with open slots. Can be refined to search players who have played with game players in the past etc.
"Greetings Master Big-T, there is an open Romulan position in Dropout Fest XIII, 100 planets, 50 warships. Click here to see details and possible fulfill your DESTINY!"
Naturally users could turn these emails off.

Make radiation zone base crew kill amount variable
To prevent the misuse of this game mechanic. Make the base kill number for crew deaths variable each turn to prevent players from 'down-sizing' their crews to achieve combat advantages (i.e. having their ships captured rather than being destroyed). A highly variable base radiation kill rate (from x.1 to x10), players would be unable to accurate predict their crew deaths and would be unable to create heavy ships that can be captured to avoid their destruction by opponents.

Change the Crystal Immunity Rule
When there are multiple Crystals in a sector, it is a real problem that they are immune to each other's webs. If there are multiple Crystals in a team game, this presents a severe disadvantage to any team without a Crystal on it. If two Crystals are on opposing teams, their racial advantage is gone and this is a true game-breaker.
The biggest manifestation of this problem is the fact that due to the Crystal immunity rule, team games are largely worthless if there is more than one Crystal in the sector. Many serious players who have figured this out…

Implement ability to reset Campaign features.
Allow for the ability to (on a limited basis, such as per race, or for X amount of money) reset your account's Campaign features that have been previously bought, gaining back all resources used, so that players who have made a mistake with their choices may correct these mistakes.
