It would be great if auto explore would allow ships with scanners to do expeditions in the systems they encounter (the same way auto explore made the units explore ruins in endless legends).
That may need a second auto explore button though (since probes are not unlimited and people may want to keep them) or maybe a checkbox in an option menu

Your thoughts?

I would be happy with an option to get a notification before end turn if an auto explore ship is in a system where it can use an expedition. That way you can decide in a more fluent way if you want to use it in that system or send it on.

I will admit that I tend to forget my auto explore ships even have probes... in general i tend to forget all about them. Guess I am just not used to that feature yet. 

But I continue to get annoyed about the expedition parts, since the AI is really good at sending it´s annoying ships in and "stealing" all the expeditions from my space. 

I think a separate option to automatically sweep all revealed anomalies would be very useful.
