[There is a problem, though. If your ships finish the movement in the same turn you give the orders, the ships AFTER the first one don't get their orders cleared, and will repeat the orders on the next turn if you don't go clear them manually. If you send them off on a movement that takes more thanone turn to complete it seems to work ok.


Hmnnn,,
Well, this sort'a solves the problem but it creats some new ones. When I give the orders all the ships move at the same time on the turn I give the order,, but,, if the orders wern't completed on the firct turn,, then each ship moves seperately on the next turn. This means that if I send a group of ships to attack something and they don't get there on the first move,, then on the next turn they will arrive at the enemy one at a time and go to battle one at a time if I don't abort the attack for each ship.
UUgghhh,,

The second part about clicking on the "leader ship" and selecting cancel formation also only sort'a works. It does cancel the formation,, but,, unless you are very careful,, you can still find yourself moveing all the ships at the same time but now they all try to maintain the same relative positions they had when the formation was canceled.
