Fast battle resolving

Not that i know of.  Paul said they would do it some time ago, don't know if its on the list or not but if so its low priority.  Wish they had it also.

Every time there's a battle, a small popup window shows up in the main map screen. This screen shows the forces fighting.

At the bottom, there are two options. Pick the "Quick Battle" option. That resolves the fight without going to the cinematic viewer.

trims2u I checked in setting fast solving battle (is the same as I choose QUICK BATTLE button from your screen) but still there is about 10s animation with ships firing (on hex map) ..... this delays is awful and it is useless ...

I mean I wish it were 5 seconds instead of 10 (or half what it really is), but you can do other things, you don't have to watch it. Just can't order ships I think, which I agree, is annoying.

I like full battles, but I think the option for quick battles should work.

I could do something else, but I can't start another attack .... for example....
In first/second/third mission from campaign I moved to the point that I haven't enough ships to attack enemy planets, but I have enough ships to destroy enemy spacedock (which enemy build every 2 turns), it was two docks near two enemy planets. It was very annoying to destroy stardock every 2 turn and wait for research / better ships from my docks .....

I will add that I do watch the Battle Viewer a lot, but it still does the quick animation as well.  Having that be a not-so-quick animation just makes it doubly irritating.  It has been mentioned before, supposedly even by Brad.  I don't know how to give it better priority.
