Morning



I was wandering, myself and my freind play endless space and were wandering if we could view each others comabt scenarios, whether it was an option or not to do so or whether anyone knows its planned for a future update.



I understand as enemies this is not viable but as an alliance or even just for fun it would be great from our point of view.



Anyone know the answer to this?



Thanks

well thats an interesting idea.



I don't think it would be good to be able to see any combat even at the other side. but it could be great to see combats near yours fleets or your planets influence (in MP, when you're waiting for your buddies to finish their battles).



It would maybe partially solve an issue I had with the game recently, especially since I started playing MP : The game doesn't give up much about other player's actions. I would like to be able to know, as in games like Civ, when other players awake an endless wonder (without much details thought, to build up a little suspens) or reach an important step toward victory.

I would also love to inform with one or two click an other player (ally or not) that I spotted a common enemy on a nearby system.



I liked the way civ introduced espionnage in the latest add-on and would love to see ES doing it (in its on way).

I would like to see this, but make it so that you requires some kind of spying perk. Because if you watch anothers battle, you can tell what weapons they are using and can prepare and in the early phase of the game this would be a little OP in my opinion. A new tech or system improvment should be the way to go for this idea. A great idea though.

Hi, thanks for the replies.



Yes indeed having it as a research would be a great idea or having it automatically as an alliance would be great to. I would love to see this feature added, i hear the devs are big on player input for this game so i hope they take it on board. Who knows.



Thanks for replying

I was wondering this at first also. However now that I'm engrossed in a campaign I realize there are just far too many battles at times to watch them all. However when in a co-op style game it would be some what feasable to allow the alliance tech to convey the battle. You could allow an option to view allied battles. Not sure how this would effect another players turn when they are forced to defend or something. Perhaps only if you weren't in a battle of your own already. I can see why it is the way it is now however and I'm fine with it but it would be cool to see my allies ships in combat. Perhaps with espionage tech or something interesting even
