I am sure this has been considered before but as a new player to the game one of my frustrations is the clumsy mechanic for creating a building queue.
I am sure all players have real life commitments of one sort or the other, sleeping at least :), so why not allow a 12/24 hour building queue so that , subject to resources, our wee guys can be building while we are offline in a similar way to the research queue.
This would certainly help new players to more quickly contribute and get involved in the community. For veteran players they can set things up in advance and concentrate on the fun stuff. I can't really see a downside.
What do you think? To both Dev's and players.
