can we get a number on selection to show how much more energy the bridge needs before completion and also a number showing how much energy a ship has left?

Yes. For example, "percentage".
Yes, this! Plus it would be great to know how much energy and time it will take before I start building them. There is so much info missing it's frustrating!
I do agree that the game and it's UI are missing a lot of information compared to previous games. It can be a bit frustrating, but I also imagine Virgil must have had a reason for this choice. Considering that people can create custom ships and fleets, it would probably be a bit tricky to program. If it IS possible though, it would be a welcome addition to the game for sure.
Just a little friendly feedback. :D
A ship status display is in the works... something you can view before, during, and after construction. And yes, it is a tad tricky. Custom modules are also being added (actual official support) and they can complicate what goes in that display.
Thank you very much. Specifically for custom modules.
Perhaps the interface needs a "complexity cap", which can limt the number of script UI tiles on a given ship interface.

Nice!!! Your the best! I already have a list of custom modules i want to add! 8)
This is great that you're adding the ship build info, the lack of cost info before building is the biggest issue for me as it makes planning very difficult. Enjoying the game though, already consumed over 100hrs of my life, not sure if this is a good or bad thing!
CW3 has, depending on how I look at it, either given or taken some hundreds of hours, and PF looks like doing the same.
I think that PF is beginning to drop the KC minimalism theme.

With the amount of properties we see, I agree with you there. (and I think we're past beginning)
