Choose civilization screen feedback-

I'm sure later when mousing over technologies they will have tooltips like abilities do. 

Tooltip for Leaders name and homeworld? (or I'll assume we will get an ingamepedia with all the juicy lore)

 

In technology screen no mouse over tooltip for Drive System Specialization. (I am seeing this tech has 3 choices so maybe nothing to worry about?) 

When selecting Starbase Defenses first unlock description is cut off "Starbase Defense Syste" (note I do have big UI font on or whatever its called)

 

On the game map scrolling the map when moving the mouse to the edges of the screen. Or a double middle mouse click centers the camera to the spot you clicked. 

 

Saturn has no rings. 

 

Selecting a planet (in this case Earth) mouse over income icon tooltip says "Net Income: Net Income: N BC"

 

On Earth seeing Spaceport built on a science tile makes me go NO! Make spaceports spawn on normal tiles. 

 

Tiles that I can't use yet make the whole hex a faded red color.

Ok placing ships in planets and then going to eject them, I can select them in the "defending fleet" tab and then right click they will pop out to that tile (or I can give them a move order and they will pop out on the correct side of the planet and not waste movements) . Create a toggle in options when I select a planet it automatically selects the ship and I can immediately tell a ship were to go.

On the game map, seeing colonization planets show a inner ring. The better the quality of the planet the more rings it should have. Ok it actually does (feeling stupid) ok low quality have a ring and a black core, 2 rings and black core = low quality, 2 rings average, 2 rings and empty core good, 2 rings and white circle = high quality world.

When you unlock a new ideology- have the unlock button glow once you made your selection.  Sometimes I go to click the done button and not unlock. derp
