SE:V satellite woes

Q · #1 September 24th, 2006, 02:24 AM

There is a direct order to launch units, which works as far as I have seen correctly, so why would you use the remote launch order for planets?

Presumably so that you do not have to click so many times to launch all the sats.

You can select 10 or 100 with the direct order and if there are less just all are launched.

The main problem with that right now is that it spills over to other designs and other unit types.

Excuse the ignorance, but where is the direct launch order. I am having the same issue with fighters. Don't know about the supply issues with fighters because I have not successfully launched any yet. I think this sorta highlights the lack of intuitiveness in the UI.

Hotkey "L" or in the middle row of the planet commands second button to the right (big red arrow).

Well cut my legs and call me shorty!

Thanks, Q! I completely missed that order.

Hopefully this is behavior is corrected in simultaneous mode or before release. :/
