If your ship/planet holds more units in its cargo than it is allowed to launch in one turn, it should be possible to set repeat orders also, or am I wrong? For planets it would be hard because of the 1000 units they are allowed to launch per turn.

[EDIT] Only 100 units are allowed in any one sector so you would have to mod to see

You could launch a hundred, retrieve them, launch again, retrieve until utnil you've done a thousand launches, then hit launch again and repeat. Of course, if you've only got one sat on the planet, it could take you a while to set that up...

Re: Launching Fighters
I tried to give repeat orders to a planet in a simultaneous game, but it appears to not be possible. Sometimes in SEIV, I feel like I'm fighting the interface more than other players. :\

Re: Launching Fighters
You can have more than 100 fighters in 1 sector.
