I think it always assumes valid answers (numbers instead of letters, etc.)

Other minor comments:

* when asking "y/n", it shouldn't require Enter afterwards
* some text (for "fleet encounter"?) overlaps, seems to put some random text somewhere unwanted ... maybe same issue that causes screen to accidentally change color (e.g. all green) temporarily on occasion
* I wish I didn't have to press Enter a billion times after every battle, etc. (5 sec. delay or keypress would be optimal)
* tested on Vista, works but only in window (not full screen) plus font isn't allowed, so it's extended ASCII instead (plus, maybe specific to my PC, maybe not, maybe Windows timing issue, but PC speaker doesn't sound right)
* probably due to my inexperience, but neither speeding up battles nor showing cpu intel seems to do anything noticeable
* fleet encounter seemed to always lose 3 (lame RNG under Windows?), did that like five times, at least
* would a default auto-load game be out of the question?
* is SWAP.DAT always needed? (same size as saved game)

Oh well, don't take any of this too seriously, I'm just rambling. ;-)
