The Planet Invasion Combat Viewer

Question, when I was playing the original GalCiv 2 application, it used to be when you invaded a planet, you'd get a screen where you'd see two armies clash and pound on each other. After installing DA and TA, now it just shows the colony grid with a couple flags and makes some shooting sounds. Is there a way to get the old style screen back?

I would like an option to skip the screen entirely. All many of us ever do is click Skip anyway.

Moddability is good. Options are good. But the number of sliders for every option, from planet class/habitability to anomaly spawn rate to mega event frequency, would quickly get out of hand. Not to mention the people asking for the ability to selectively turn off individual classes of extreme planets, anomalies, mega events, ethical events, etc. The result would be a set up screen with literally hundreds of sliders, switches, and menus.

The biggest argument to me is that the second most successful game of this type to date (MOO) HAD a PQ quality slider. That's a no-brainer big deal that can really effect the way the game plays, and we should have it here too. Or at least in a config file.
