Military

Having downloaded the 1.2 patch, I did some testing around at the request of others.
First, as we know that the recharging speed for different missiles chassis (e.g. Rocket and PD) is indeed different during combat (Good work!). However, someone pointed out the text description is incorrect.
For example, a PD Missile says it has a recharge rate of 0.09 sec. According to some source, it should be 0.09 * 45sec = 4.05 or 4 seconds. 4 Seconds is about what I observed in the patched game. The same goes for the 0.5 sec recharge rate of Rocket Missiles, which had 22~24 seconds recharge time, roughly equal to 0.5 * 45sec = 22.5 secs.
Nevertheless, that is a minor problem. There is one problem that is a bit troubling to me as a player, and that is the "Volley Remaining count", and the serious ramification of it in combat.
--------------------
Some experimental results and observational facts:
1)
Facts: Whenever the Volley Remaining Count reaches 0, you will not be able to fire any more missiles regardless of how many Volleys of whatever type you should still have.
Example: If I have a 2 Volleys of PD and Rocket missiles, the second Rack of the Rocket will not fire if the 2nd Rack of PD is fired first. This is usually the case, since the PD recharges at a bit over 5 times the rate of Rocket.
2)
Facts: The Volley Remaining Count can fluctuate when the vessel is equipped with missiles of mixed Chassis. E.g. equipping Rocket and PD missiles.
Example: With a ship having 10 Volleys of PD and Rocket missiles, the Volley Remaining Count may go like this: 9,8,7,6,5,8,3,2,1,0 or 9,8,7,6,8,5,4,3,2,1,7,0 or similar patterns.
3)
Facts: There is also some minor display error when having mixed Missile Types.
Example: With a ship having 1 Volley of PD Anionic and 10 Volleys of PD Nuclear Missile. At the onset of the battle, the Volley Remaining is displayed as 1. However, after firing the first volley, the number changed to 9.
Based on my experiment, here is my hypothesis:
1)
The Volley Remaining Count (VRC) is updated each time your ship fires missiles. By "each time" I mean an instance of launching the missiles, regardless if it was firing 1 missile or 10 missiles simultaneously. This is only affected by Chassis type, not Missile Type (e.g. Anionic v.s. Nuclear), or the the number of weapon entry (e.g. 2 entries of Nuclear Missiles), or the number of Missiles fired per Volley
2)
Whenever your Volley Remaining Count is updated to be 0, the system stops worrying about your ships' missile capability. Meaning regardless of how many missiles you may actually have, you will not be able to fire, as the system will not check you for possible missile capability because you supposedly have 0 remaining.
3)
Whenever an update to the VRC is made, it is made based on the number of volley of that particular missile chassis type remaining. Meaning, if there are 7 more volleys of PD missiles left, it will update the VRC as being 6 after firing one of the PD, regardless whether you have 20 or 2 Rocket missiles left.
4)
The effect of different weapon entry (e.g. 2 entry of PD Nuclear Missile) of varying amount do not affect the outcome, nor does the Missile Type, (e.g. Nuclear v.s. Anionic). The only thing that affects the VRC is the Chassis Type

Planetary Production

The planetary queue builds a SSG, but it does not appear in the Gov DEA. AI will re-append SSG to queue immediately if a free slot is available, on next occasion otherwise. E.g. build two Gov DEAs on separate planets in a system. The second will auto-queue, build, waste, and re-queue SSG's ad infinitum.

“In one of my systems, I've found that two planets both have a System Seat of Government.”

Combined

I got a SitRep message that a System Seat of Government was built in one of my systems, but when I used the hyperlink, no building was highlighted, and the only Government DEA had no SSoG. I checked, and it was neither destroyed by spies in the same turn, nor was there a revolt which could have destroyed it.

Planetary Production

Industry short should sort planets by their (base production value)/(their base production cost multiplier).  This would allow you to sort them by their relative base production value (which is much more useful)  This could also apply to any planetary specail effecting the entire planet for bioharvesting and mineral output.

Planetary Production

The Viceroy won't build monuments and media outlets (They actually confer huge bonuses) unless you fiddle with the spreadsheets. It also won't build military DEAs sensors and hydroponic farms on planets without Bioharvest DEAs. The fix is:
In the government row add CorrCap += 100. This will make the viceroy build all the government DEA improvements that it ignores.
In the military row add OffSensr += 100. This will make the viceroy build sensors in your military DEAs.
In the infrastructure row add BioOutPt += 100. This will cause viceroys to build hydroponic farms on planets without a bioharvest DEA.
Also add mPopGrow += 100 to the infrastructure row. This will encourage construction of population enhancing structures.

Having large numbers of troops in reserve causes the unit list to truncate.

Condensing units down to just one slot per unit/race in each experience level with a number to indicate the number would be much more manageable.

Economic

split grant between up to 10 planets with lowest infrastructure value (current setting, as i understand it) player picks up to 10 planets each turn to split it between. first gift funds to make each planet's balance >= (some number player can set), then apply ABC option to the remaining funds always give funds on 1st two turns after a planet becomes mine. always give to X planets, but give more to planets with less infrastructure value. (some rule here about how the trade off goes) rather than using infrastructure as the judge, give to the poorest planets - bottem X, split equally. or highest industry (nice to get a fleet out quickly!), or most terraformable (ie, that would get the most benefit from some terraforming), or highest RP, etc... ABC option could be any of those above, or maybe others that require some kind of penalty. so that you can subsidize your poorest worlds, but you lose an extra 10% of the available gift budget to bureaucratic incompetence. i can think of more options, but so can anyone - the important suggestion is to make such a screen and possibility, and then figure out some good policies that would be useful. i shouldn't even think it would be hard to have the AI use it - just make each race have a preferred option based on their personality and never change it...

Colonization

-) Migration - severity: low

It should NOT be possible to migrate within, into or out of systems that are blockaded by enemy ships. I've seen it several times (pre code patch) that when I attack an enemy system, outposts start popping up there, probably because the attack/blockade makes people unhappy. In my current game (post code patch), I've had a magnate outpost popping up somewhere else after an AI enemy blockaded my only system with that magnate race. This doesn't make sense - the blockade prevents you from getting food and minerals into/out of the system, but migrants can still travel??

Emigrants can move to systems you haven't explored yet, but they don't explore the systems on the way. In my current game, this has lead to the absurd situation that I have an emigrant outpost to which I can set migration, i.e. send more settlers, but which I can't protect by sending war ships there, as I don't know which route to take (there's no visible starlane connection to explored space, and it's quite far away, so going offroad is no option).
