Alpha War 3 Feedback

Dear Caleb,
Had an excellent time opening evening of AW3!
The following are some small items I noted as I scouted.
1.) When I first viewed the galaxy screen, it still had my planets and teammates planets highlighted in the colors I had assigned in AW2 in the Color List Manager, of course, spread all over the galaxy in their new random positions. Not a big deal - took a moment or two to delete each planet. Wondering if the Color List Manager could be reset for each war so a player can start fresh once he has his new planets.
2.) Had about 5 or 6 times when my scout overshot target star and began to circle back to the planet in question at full speed. I slowed velocity down to facilitate arrival at star system. No big deal.
3.) Had a few times (maybe 1/2 a dozen?) when I encountered what I call the blue box glitch. Scouted a star, hit hyper, scout entered hyperspace, click on the next star I wish to travel toward to continue scouting, and the blue box appears, with the star # and Yoda ship#, as if I am already where I wish to proceed. The "Navigate to" menu does not show the new star, but remains the star I just exited. I click on the star # in the blue box, the "Navigate to" updates to the proper star, and I proceed. Again, no big deal.
4.) Had several instances of what I would define as Province lag. My scout was in one province, but clicking on the Provence Map blue box would bring up the province where I was previously located, or, perhaps, had last viewed from the Galaxy Map, necessitating closing it and again clicking the Province Map blue box to bring up the actual province I was in.
Again, as I said, none of these items is any big deal at all. My enjoyment of opening scout night was not diminished in any way, but I know you wish to hear of any and all items, no matter how trivial.
Yours, Yoda
