i'd like a way to either mass add retreat orders to my fleet, or to set default behaviors with the mod, so that my preferred retreat at blank was automatically issued to ship. thank you in advance, and thank you for writing the mod
I was thinking the same.
In what way would a mass retreat order (which u wouldn't be able to 'activate' because the automated commands activate based on conditions being met and not from user input) be any different from the already existing order that u can issue (WITHOUT spending any command points) "Full Retreat" that you can find right under "Full Assault" on the tactical overview (on the right top of the screen)??
(the orders get added when using autofit like "reinforced bulkheads" can be)
Um, the automated command hullmods CAN be added using autofit, u just need to save a variant with it. (And it will NEVER fail to get added because of the 0OP cost) unlike other hullmods when autofit has to use non-exact weapons because of stock issues.
I forgot to add the retreat orders (most often because they were removed by autofit)
.
After the first time you use the autofit option (and added the automated hullmods afterwards) open the autofit dialogue again and overwrite the variant with the one that INCLUDES the automated mods
It could either be an implicit default (there are no orders added to ship loadout), which is preferable because there is less clutter, or an explicit default
I have toyed with the idea of making a 'composite hullmod' where u can in the settings file chose several of the automated hullmods and placing the one will count as placing all of them but I decided that it muddies the waters, removes data that should be visible, makes reading the variant descriptions impossible and at the end of the day doesn't actually do much to reduce clutter because 2 less hullmods (out of 10+ for a capital ship) doesnt change anything. Heck, on frigates, when you include s-mods can have 8+ hullmods easily
