There are some modest wishes (competitors)

I couldn’t find a better way to convey the impression of the game - the game is super!

But I would like to improve something)))
There are some modest wishes.
It will probably not be possible to hide the technology tree. By the way - during research, for some reason, when I studied more technologies, the TELESCOPE disappeared from the construction menu in the science section - it seemed that there was a mistake, there was a telescope, but it disappeared after studying various new technologies and it is impossible to build it if you failed at the beginning.

And a wish - in a COMPETING COLONY (competitors or enemies) that would develop on another random asteroid and different options for friendship or conflict with it, including weapons - in order to compete with someone for the rest of the solar system. This would greatly extend the playability when you are developing and you don’t know whether your competitors will be able to survive or not, and if they do, then when they will get to your asteroid by landing from above. Maybe it already exists but I haven’t found it yet. And that there would be randomly from 1 to 2 such competitors on different generations)))

The telescope works, it was my mistake, I found where it is.

While I understand why you may find having "competitors" interesting, given the current state of technology, such an AI is currently not realistically feasible. This game's mechanics are intended for humans to throw brainpower at it and, as such, are VERY deep. As of today, we don't know how to build systems capable of similar performance, let alone having them run on consumer hardware. Heck, any late game save will give most CPUs a hard time already.

Even a mechanically simpler games such as anno 1800 gives you competitors that run on constant cheats as they would otherwise play so badly that they wouldn't "compete" much. The best you could realistically hope for is some badly performing scripts or something purely artificial that doesn't genuinely play the game.

Thank you for the clear and helpful reply.
