Focus on incoming assaults...

from Stardock Forums
Was in the middle of playing a Huge game and was at war with one of the empires. Problem is that my empire is so large, with the map, it's hard to see incoming ships.

Just lost a planet to a transport I didn't even see coming in (and they move slow, so they were easily within sensor range).

Would be nice if the game focused on incoming invasion forces/warned you of them...

I believe there is an option to "Follow Alien Ships" in the options menu. It's not perfectly efficient, but it at least gives some warning.

OF course, I'd like to see a keybinding that cycles through visible enemies (ala Jagged Alliance 2). There are also other acceptable alternatives, such as pinging their location on the minimap (Dark Reign 2), or a replay option (Capture the Flag/Space Empires IV).
