I was doing a 102 planet, 5 star game this week, and towards the end, I started spamming Novalith Cannons. At first, I was hotkeying them to 0, 9, 8, 7, etc, but when I came to control too many, I just started putting them on autofire and forgetting about them. Although it was fun to see 30-40 Novalith shots traveling between systems, it was a pain in the butt to have to wait 20 minutes for the shots to subside before I could colonize any plants that had been flattened, for fear of more shots hitting the planet after I colonize it.
My question is this: Is there any way that I can easily select all of my Novas and then fire them one at a time? I tried to shift-select them all into one group, but I was having problems with tabbing through them, as it wouldn't progress through them uniformly. Also on a few planets I was able to squeeze two on (due to planet specials), and when I selected both of them at once, I couldn't cycle through them with tab either.
Also, I was wondering if anyone knows how to mass-scuttle a group of objects? It's a pain in the butt to have to scuttle everything individually...
Thanks!
