Use waypoints to have ships built at your spaceyards automatically move to the front line resupply depots/staging area.

You set waypoints on the Empires screen and then when you are in the construction window there is a set move to button on the lower right of the screen. Click that button and what waypoint and all new ships produced at that construction yard will automatically move to the set waypoint. You must be careful with this feature. I have forgotten that it was set and built colony ships that then have to be sent back to load population before going on.

about WP : I use them, but how to delete them?

about units : is it true that one combat scanner is sufficient on a platform to give all platforms a bonus to attack?

Hit Alt + (0-9) to set a way point on the system map window. Going to the waypoints window is excessive. Also, Ctrl + (0-9) sends a ship to the relevant way point.

(IIRC) 1 combat sensor works for all units in a stack. Satellites/WPs/fighters (well, not sure about fighters though...)
