How to handle your ships

Getting lost

from GalCiv2 Forums
Is there a easy way to handle all your ships around space?
For me it seems its hard to get a good view of where they are.

A list sorted by sector and fleets would help.
Production rally point should be possible to sett as a que (bad english..). ship 1 to planet 1, ship 2 to planet 2, ship 3 to fleet 1, ship 4 to fleet 2. Then it starts over again from the beginning. (to manualy move each new ship to its fleet/base/planet is a timekiller and gets boring.

Instead of this, I would suggest having 4 planets each sending ships out to different rally points. I will often have pairs of planets, each supplying constructors to a starbase rallypoint, then various other planets supplying attack ships for defensive purposes.

Also, use the "Ship Destination" minimap toggle to show lines on the minimap showing where all your ships are headed. This may also help you get an idea where everything is going.

Hope these suggestions help!

The minimap sugestion helps. The problem with using diferent planets to produse ships is that on larger maps i tend to specialise my planets and their StarBases so i get the most out of them. Normaly i end up with 1 or 2 Mayor builder planets.
