auto save every 10 min etc:
I'm so fed up of either vista crashing this back to desktop or spore crashing its self back to desktop and having to start the space section again and again.

Creature maker to be as good as building maker etc:
Not only in the painting aspect of it, but sometimes i just want to stick an eye on the side of something A eye not A EYE ON EACH SIDE just one eye.

When is space mode, when i talk to to someone i found it cute and funny when they spoke back, and made random noises at me, now its just annoying.

any chance of more than just one religion the fact that most of the galaxy worships spode i mean surely you can make another religion that teaches something different to spode?

skip the entire space tutorial:
I don't want to keep learning how to paint planets and terraform, i already know just give me the god dam tools.

civ stage: one a civ only has one city can i still get a more in depth reason why they like / dislike me?

sorry for the random order i just wrote these down as thought of them.

Well a couple on your list I can agree with. The space creatures talking can get very annoying very fast...but,

The game crashes arn't Spore's fault, it's your hardware. I have vista, and have been playing spore for probably 30 hours in total. Not one crash. If you want to skip tutorials, there's a handy dandy disable tutorial button in settings. As for your asymmetric thing, there are ways around Spores symmetry grid, just browse around and you'll find many things here and on youtube.

Wasn't complaining about the crashes, i even said i expect its just vista or as you suspect my hardware, i was complaining about the lack of auto save

- if i do this am i going to lose out on the free crap they give you (eg save your self some time by filling your cargo full or plants animals, a atmo generator and colony pack?)

surely there is a way of disabling it at will, i mean why should we have to awkwardly hide parts or place them slightly off where we wanted them?

took me ages to find this topic, i mean how many new topics does this forum make in a day (had to go to page 10 to find it!!!)

A new idea that come to me yesterday was when you are attacking an alien city in space mode, have a button you can click on to make it auto capture or auto surrender (like civ mode had a capture button) it just stops you accidently destroying the city.

it does come up with the capture button at the top depending on the weapons that your using.

Two minor Creature level tweeks off the top of my head.

Ability to issue commands to your companions. I hate exploring and having a companion creature rush over and attack a hostile tribe while I'm trying to go around or run away from them.

How about forcing other creatures to actually defend their nests? I don't know how many times I've been busy trying to make friends with a group, only to have a nearby hostile creature sneak up and sucker punch me from behind.

they will do if they are hostile with that creature, i only seem to see if if its a rogue attacking me.
