JustMeHere Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I have a pair of ships "stuck" in a port. This is because every turn they generate a convoy encounter. I don't want them to go out. They are supposed to be refitting, and hopefully rejoining their fleet. Since they are "in combat" I cannot change their order away from "sea control" This is a general issue with putting ships into a forward port for repairs/refit. They end up going out on missions on their own, and the player never gets a chance to control them again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vholes Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Hi, I agree with you. I want the ability to order that ships do not leave port to convoy raid, even ships that arrive in port that month (force them to "defend" rather than "sea control").

flaviohc16 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 You can put in "defend", even when they are in battle, you just need to select also a single ship that is not in battle, even from another port, and then select together the ships that you want to change ( using CTRL OR SHIFT) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justMike247 Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 I wish it was as straight forward as just changing a ship's status. My bugbear is when a capitol ship gets beat up enough to need repair. Ya daren't detach it from a fleet to make its own way because subs, mines, ambush etc, so it's escorted to a repair port. Those escorts immediately get hijacked by the AI invariably to go play in stupid "Missions" hundreds of miles away from where they've docked, and that's the last you see of them. I've had four small fleets crippled for up to three years campaign time because their escorts are off doing something stupid month after month. Gawds it gets on my titz... If the AI wants to play with ships, surely it could build its own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really changes how war are fought, with way less of thoose corollary mission that basically permalocked your ships in port Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
