Default SEV Empire Options

I know that there are lots of bugs and questionable features in the SEV demo, but has anyone looked closely at the empire options screen?? OMG, there is a tone of stuff in there. All the basic display junk is in there, but so are repair priorities and fully customizable ship strategies. I don't know if it all works, but if it does this game will rock once MM cleans up the bugs and interface issues.

Speaking of features I have sen many complaints about the "move to top" and "move to bottom" commands missing from the construction queue menu. Interestingly enough these command are included in the repair priorities menu so it should be no problem to eventually have them on the queue menu.

My initial impression was that SEIV had more customization options. At least it appears more spread around in SEV.

Did you look at the strategies? Far beyond anything in SEIV. They are broken into multiple categories like warp point defense, planet defense, etc. and even allows setting retreat thresholds. I was thinking that customized scenarios could make use of this feature to simulate cowardice and bravery in certain races.
