It would be nice to be able to prioritise targets with this option. I have taken to sticking a load of offensive craft on Auto Attack and just letting them do their thing, but they never seem to bother attacking Mines on asteroids, only other ships. I'd like to be able to tell them who and what to seek out.
The AI of opponents dissapoints me here. My current game has come to a finale of me going at it against the Thelans and Torians. They only seem interested in Lasers with Shields and Anti-Missile defence. I get some semi-decent Mass Drivers and some Shields and single fighters can wipe out fleets of 8+ ships of theirs.

Hehe, the more threads I read here, the more I realise what a total balls-up I made of pretty much everything I did!
Just bought the game the other day and have played through an Immense map with 9 opponents. It's gonna eat up a lot of my time! I haven't quite played the game to completion yet, but I have a few questions over things I don't quite understand. 1. I'm not sure I understand 'Range' fully. I realise there is an area of influence from planets and starbases, does this change for each ship depending on it's range statistic? 2. What do I have to do to remain popular with my people? I
