2.0 and still no unoccupied planet quality or distance sort.

Here we are with version 2.0 and STILL we don't have the ability to sort unoccupied planets by planet quality or distance from selected ship. These sorts are important only from ships (colony class), so perhaps should go into the goto window for ships. During the planet rush on the largest galaxy sizes selecting which planet to send a colony ship is still very cumbersome with the current placement of the "unoccupied planet" list. The current "unoccupied planet" list off the main planet list just doesn't do the job. And so far, I have not found any other use for the current placing of the "unoccupied planet" list.

As a workaround you can put a rally-point next to the planet and use the go-to option.

But would also want more sort options

Mortili, I have used that work-around and find it lacking. I already use so many rally-points that the list of them is a confused mess. The rally-points are another example of where sorts are needed, both by name and distance, particularly in the "go-to" list.

Yes, it would be nice to have this. I'm also a bit miffed to see that dumb bug of explored space not being fully shown if the ship is not in view the whole time... Thought that one had been squashed for good, but alas no. :(

I haven't found the unoccupied planet list that helpful, either.  I would want tabs to separate out extreme planets that clutter up the list before I have the techs needed to do anything.

Sort lists everywhere there is a list, please.  Keep it as consistent and helpful as possible, please.  On a large map, any list that doesn't sort is going to a pain.  Rally points is just one very obvious place it would help.

Still having the unrevealed fog bug as well.  Do devs need save games or something on this from us?  Any feedback at all?
