Being able to select which endgame crisis to spawn was a step in the right direction but my wishlist is far from done. Please give feedback to what is your most important issue and what/why something isn't technically feasible. Also feel free to recommend mods.
Galaxys Size
More gradual and more love for lower Star amounts 300 Stars for example when you as I feel that 200 is too few but 400 becomes a chore.
Also having all systems in place at the start some to be discovered instead of spawning them to due events would help with quite a few immersion breakers and give more powerful sensors and the wonder more to do.
Galaxy Shape
A Milkyway option with its most important objects for learning purposes.
Advanced AI Starts
More sub-options as to which empires are affected and to how much further they are ahead (number of systems for example).
Fallen Empires
Toggles for the types that you allow to spawn, The size of their empires, option for allowing any number at any galaxy size - if you want 6 Scions going at it on a tiny map sign me up - surely sparing 6 or even 36 systems out of 200 hundred won't be a problem. Toggles/sliders for how likely they are to awake/start a war in heaven.
An option to design them like regular empires. (This also applies to Marauders, Primitives and Enclaves)
Marauder Empires
Slider for the size of their space, no need to do away with another 2 systems worth of exploration if a single system allows for their mechanics.
Habitats for their pops so they have a more grounded economic base and something to raid back. (This also applies to Enclaves and Carvaneers)
(The should capture your science ship and ransom it back to you instead of just blowing it up.)
Enclaves
An option turn them or some of them off.
Crisis Type
Toggles not dropdown! Especially as we get more which we totally should you just want to be able to sort out the ones you dislike will still having a surprise. Option to have several Crisis in 1 game.
Midgame Crisis:
Same here being just able to turn of warp storms would be great without having to decide which Midgame Crisis happens. L-Cluster yes/no an outcome options.
Precursor Selection
Toggles for the different types. Option to have several Precursors in 1 game. (AI should pursue the event chains too)
Guardian (The giant space monsters)
Toggles for the different types and allowing us to choose the number that spawns, option for roaming behaviour.
Difficulty
For the sake of not having to look it up on the wiki it should state that Ensign is the default no bonus/malus for the player nor for the AI setting.
Wormhole Pairs
Option for including/excluding special systems/anomalys in the 0x setting.
Xeno-Compatibility
Basic only same type (humanoids with humanoids, plants with plants) works. Basic+ also allows for the subtypes to spawn more horrors.
Advanced all types can procreate. Advanced+ their children can have new types of offspring too.
Robo Love - Insert images of Data and the Borg Queen, Lucy Liu Bots, and sexy Cylons. (THE SYNTH ICON PROMISED ME!)
Space Travel Types
Sadly we went from 3 to 1 but even back when Hyperlanes were just an option it always bothered me that they then could be circumvented by Jump-Drives so an option to turn them off would be nice.
Wildlife Randomization
Wildlife being neutral till you come too close and it attacks you, behaviour not being fixed (placid amoeba/mad space cows), Roaming wildlife toggle. End from Above toggle for attacks on colonies - crystaline entities having a snack, mining drones taking apart your space port.
Relics
Toggles as to whether and which broken Mega-Structures should be in the game, whether there are Relic worlds.
Sol placement and UNE relation to the Commonwealth of Man
It would be nice if Sol's distance from galactic centers would be respected and its closest star system being Alpha Centauri being ensured.
It would be great if the special mechanics of the UNE and Commonwealth would be listed in game - if you want an Earth game without the Commonwealth spawning create a new empire don't modifiy the UNE for example.
