Summary0019777: a few critiques from a new player w/o a mantis account
DescriptionIn the build menu it's quite hard to read the text for the Mark IV ships in the build menu due to colour. The Mark 1, 2 and 3 ship numbers are much more readable. Also, "red" in video games typically means "you can't do this", so on the Auxiliary Space Dock it might confuse someone. It did actually confuse the new player in question, who spent a minute or two trying to figure this out.

The tooltip for game speed refers to things like "The Simulation", which is really unintuitive to someone who doesn't know anything about AIW2. Can we improve this?

Auxiliary space docks need a better tooltip to explain what they are.

Should we set Auto-build Rebuilders/Energy Collectors/Engineers to be on, and also the Auto-FRD engineers/rebuilders? I feel like that will make a new player's life easier.

Can we get some pre-started campaigns for people? Imagine setting a game with a few factions that's an hour or two in, where you have a lot of resources and are well defended. It would give a new player the ability to see what an experienced player's setup looks like partway through.
