I think this was question before when they released the history of fixes. But I can't remember what it was. Maybe a Beta tester can stop by here and let us know again what it means. I certainly hope it does not mean that they do not break formation anymore. That would suck!

"Break formation" is still working as you know it. The "combat group" thing is misleading and is only a description of what caused the bug. This bug resulted in your ships attacking a planet even if they had the express order not to. Nothing more, nothing less.

So, you've tested that it's still possible to have a fleet with ships set to break formation, and those ships will then use their design's strategy on a per-ship basis, instead of the fleet strategy?
