Hi. I was initially scared away from this game due to bug reports, but I figured the situation would be better with all the patches, so I acquired a copy. I've found the game to work rather well and make sense with the one exception of tech trading. Any workarounds or explanations for any of the following issues would be appreciated.

1) When picking out a get, the "Any Tech" button is confusing. What is the number for? If I specify 2, am I specifying "any 2 techs" or "any level 2 tech"?

2) When picking out a give, is there a convenient way of figuring out how many research points worth of technology I am offering?

Is there a reason why every baseship picture has four identical sides? Its impossible to see which direction the ship is facing and its usually not facing the direction you wanted it to.

At minimum, can the system put a dot or something on the front facing of the ship?

At most, can shipyard designer make baseships with a front, a back and two sides, just like all the other ships?

And I hope that the size of the baseship picture and its corresponding occupation area in the combat screen are significantly reduced to put them in alignment with all the other ships. There is absolutely no reason why a 1500kt ship needs a picture that is eight times the size of a 1000kt ship. These things are bigger than many planets! What would a 4000kt worldship look like? Would it even fit on the combat screen?
