Default How to skip ship?

Hi

Main problem for me in SEIV Gold is to loop thru all my ships with "Next Ship" button.
How I can no select the certain ship again and again? In Civilisation I use Space for to leave unit until next turn.

Thanks

You can select the ship you want from the ships/units list (F6). You might want to rename the particular ship to find it easier in the list.

If you are playing a simultaneous movement game, you can order the ship to move into the same sector it is in.

I don't want to search the particular ship. I want to check all my ships which have the action points in this turn.

To skip certain ships when looping through your ships using the "next ship" button, you can put the ships you don't want on Sentry.

But I want loop thru this ship on next turn. If I make it Sentry it will be skipped on next turns too. And you can not make ship Sentry if enemy is near.

There is an option under Empire Status / Options under Next/Previous for stopping at each location only once.

Also you can "move to" your current location. It uses no supplies, but now the ship has an order and will be skipped on the Next/Previous command.

Is "location" mean "ship" in this case? May be sector?

I wouldn't call myself an expert. Just trying to be helpful.

Welcome to the forums and SE4. Keep at it and you will be hooked.
