I had been thinking about suggesting something like this too. Similar to this there are a few other features that could be added: auto trigger fleet on arrival, pre-building orders both fleet and buildings, auto send aid or specific aid orders, etc.

An arguement pro this implementations would be that its a strategy game and things should be made easy for the players so they can entirely fovus on strategy, rather than on  funding each tick or logging in in the middle of the night to do whatever they feel they must.

On the other hand activity should be rewarded too.
