The build/select tiles are good. I have two suggestions, however:
1) Click to select.
2) Double-click to select and jump to.
Thoughts? Currently, I find myself trying to select a ship on the other side of the map, but after re-zooming and selecting, I can't easily return to the scene of the latest battle.
I think that would be good yes, but there is one problem with just clicking on a ship so you can move it, as you might not remember where the ship is and it end up charging through a bunch of particles and it being destroyed.
Maybe when the line of movement shows, it could flash red to indicate there are particles in the way, this could also be good just for general use as well.
I had considered that, I was thinking of sumoning newly-rebuilt ships (Lathes) through the fleet to the front line.
