Hello all, First of all, apologies in advance if this issue has been raised before.
Playing on larger maps with lots and lots of starbases, I notice massive slowdown due to the high population of fighers and bombers hanging around. So much in fact (Over 20 bases with on average 10 fighter/bomber wings now) that it gets a bit rediculous.
Would it be possible to have an auto-launching and auto-docking feature for all bases/hangars/ships?
e.g.: When no enemy entities are around in a gravity well, all ships remain docked. Once an (targetable for fighters/bombers) enemy shows up, these wings will all scramble and attack. Once the fight is over, all ships return.
Of course I can dock all ships in my empire when those planets are not threatened, but because of the occassional rebel force popping in form nowhere (playing Diplomacy), that is not much of an option.
