Default Stacking the \"Launch Units Remotely\" Command

I don't know how useful this will be to everybody, but to those who find it tiresome to have to remember to deploy mines every turn because the order to Remotely Launch Units does not stack, here is a simple trick. Simply use the Launch Units remotely command while slightly out of range of your target (a warp point for example) then after the Mine Layer runs out of movement set the ship to repeat orders. This way every launch order gets buffered by a move order, which takes your ship nowhere as you are already on target. Come back an appropriate number of turns later to find all mines launched.
