hey fellas. this is regarding to fighters. it seems that fighters sits idlely after destroying a ship. i was wondering if it was possible to create an auto patrol on idled fighters or ships. i.e., after fighters engagement, they should be set to auto patrol it's peremiter around the fighters sensor range. or maybe have a radius patrol to about 5battleship length, around it's parent ship. this will enable idled ships to auto locate and target surrounding enemy ship in constant patrol.
i would also like to see if it's possible not to make fighters look like they are battling on horizontal plain view. i know that you can move individual or grouped ships up or down using tild (~) button but it could be a lot better (fighter wise functions) if fighters where to do sphere assault on ships. like in hw, if you put evasive sphere on the target ship, fighters will swarm around the ship from any direction making a circular attack mode around enemy ships.
i thought the freedoms of fighters in homeworld was one of the reasons that made me love rts strategy game. gives you a more disposable gameplay on each individual units.
