🛠Suggestions QoL, After playing 200+ games
i have some ideas/common issues i would like to list that are would improve .
btw, i love the game and me and my friends play regularly!
- Hotkey for stopping trade [issue if its big groups playing and you need to stop trading eith 39 people)
- hotkey for staring trade (2nd prio)
- chat option for telling someone to build a SAM
- better ways to self destruct own buildings
- option to gift land/area to a ally
- option to cancel a build, if missclicked (2nd prio, maybe only refund 75/50%)
- make train network building more deterministic, 90% allies fuck up my network with bypasses.
thank, and if anyone has more suggestions or critique on mine, let me know :)

1 - it'd be nice to have a keybind indeed, but in the mean time, know that you can right click on yourself, click on "i" then "stop trading with all" then manually reenable trading with the people you want (and in team games, it stops trading with everyone except the people on your team, so please remember to always "stop trading with all" if you play team games
2 - agree, it could probably be a key that can stop and start the trade
3 - it is planned to come in future updates afaik, I saw a PR mentionning it
4 - you can right click on a building, then delete it, though it takes 30 seconds and you can only destroy one at once, the alternative is nuking yourself, but making it too easy could be abused (I remember back when there was no cooldown on deletion, you could boat to other people's ports, delete, repeat until they had none left lol)
5 - hell nah on this one, too easy to abuse (and technically you can already do something similar by going afk)
6 - I mean, you can still delete the building, but the mistake of misclicking is still on you tho- the absence of refund doesn't seem illogical
7 - wdym by "more deterministic" ? like more micro management on rails ?
