Grungle Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Ok, so you play the game, build up your space ship, get toward the center... but you want MORE! You want to drop a fleet of your well-designed battleships on unsuspecting factions! But wait a minute... how do these crew guys work? How do I order my fleet around? I can't find anything on this topic- maybe it's a relatively new part of the game? The biggest problems I'm having are: ships don't follow me through hyperspace (even with captains and being ordered to follow me) ships don't attack enemies when told to attack enemies Once I told a ship to attack enemies and it launched all the mining drones and salvage drones. Oops? I tell a station to "guard this position" it has guns, it has gunners. Pirate show up and it does nothing? HOW DOES THIS STUFF WORK!?!?!

Tsunamik Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 HOW DOES THIS STUFF WORK!?!?! Short answer: it doesn´t :D AI ships and stations are currently so dumb, they couldn´t pour out water from their boot without instructions written on their sole... Hopefully it will be fixed in the future, but right now AI and fleet interface is so basic that it hurts to use :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grungle Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 I was very afraid someone was going to tell me that. Which is why I retired my fleet and piled all my resources into a fat carrier/destroyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hûvy Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Setting up a faction atm is quite impossible but what you can (kind of) do, is have a band of followers to add a tad more firepower to your side when fighting stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crodak Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Mining is a job they do very good..... more is too expensive.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brigadon Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 with the 'salvage command' mod, a fleet is pretty good at cleaning up your sector after you defeat a pirate or alien invasion, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wishlord Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Hi, What about Salvaging command? If I have Carrier with full stack of Salvage Fighters it works great. But if I put some Torpedos on it, it will fire up all torpedos when I command to salvage sector. Even if I turned off them on UI and then leave ship and command to salvage. Any advice?
