Multiplayer New Features

From my reply on this post..

Future Ideas for Gal Civ IV (A Tutorial for the Game Designers: How to Design the Game So It is Not a Nightmare to balance).

Personally I'd like several upgrades to MP to make things better as a whole for MP.

• Turn Timer (this can be set at the beginning of game 1, 2, 5, 10 minute ranges).
• Stability
• See in progress games and where they are in the game to see if you can request to join.
• No combat viewer (this can slow down the game).
• Ship designer only when it's not your active turn.
• Planet changes only when it's not your active turn.
• Mega events (or something else to provide ideology in a multiplayer game).
