United Plants Vote and Starbase Bonuses

Idea on United Plants Vote and Starbase Mining Resources

It would help to put off the vote of the United Plants sometimes to look at the Map or review current reports, stats, and treaties or use this turn to trade or bribe someone with money or technology to vote for you or vice versa. The vote could only be postponed one turn. If you fail to vote the next turn it will show your vote as not voting which would upset your people or the race that bribed you or et cetera.

It would also help if the Colony Management Planet Details screen under Starbase Bonuses not only showed the standard Economic, Influence, and Military Starbases but also shows the Mining Resources (Economic, Influence, Military, Morale, and Research).

You're given a warning one turn in advance already.

The thing about the existing warning, though, is that you have no idea what the issue that's going to be addressed is.

You're supposed to be able to figure it out through espionage according to the manual. Now, I'm playing Drath (who get plenty bonus espionage) and I'm paying for espionage on everyone in the galaxy, and I've NEVER seen the upcoming issue, but hey, maybe it's there and you just need to find it. I admit to not having looked very hard.

Hey, I just had an idea for a new custom race, the United Plants. They start with Terraforming...

Espionage does not tell you what uncontrolled star systems are with in each races territory thus when council votes on handing over a new habitable plant in an uncontrolled star system to you or someone else, it is a good idea to know where it is located first of all and would it be better to vote for someone you wish to ally with later.
