Toggle button for default flagship autopilot
« on: January 15, 2021, 03:02:34 PM »
Ok so this is a convenience thing because I'm too bad at the game to fly the ships effectively remember to toggle autopilot on for my flagship every fight that I intend to do so. I can also see autopilot being annoying maybe, though it turns off automatically, so I think it'd be nice if there was a button to set the default autopilot mode when a fight starts.

Good point. I'm also bad at combat so i leave it to AI, but few times I was wondering why my flagship is running straight into enemy only to realize I forgot to let the AI lead. ;)

There's a bunch of "Standard Operating Procedures" that would improve the start of battle. Like being able to line up your ships properly so they won't run into each other; automatically setting your flagship to AI; escort orders that you've had to put in by had a hundred times and fighter cover for vulnerable ships.
