[quote who="N3rull" reply="25" id="2270296"] Well we all know what OP wanted and we've been talking about it. Please care to read at least some of my posts and examples of why it would not be just plain cool. I won't show up in this thread. The retard-factor here is beyond measurable, with just one man contributing to it. If you wish to discuss it further, I'm open for it; please PM me.

[quote who="koda0" reply="4" id="2270429"]If your fleet is actuall a fleet (that is, it is lead by a "Flagship", if you will) then order your "Flagship" to attackthe enemy, and every other ship will stay in formation behind it.

One of the biggest frustrations I have with my fleet is the fact that ships won't stay in formation when moving. My capital ships always get left behind by the supporting frigates...sometimes resulting in the loss of ships. What are the chances that an update will include a "formation lock" command, so your ships will always stay in formation when the fleet is given a move command?
