Fightercraft stop working

As background info: I was playing TEC and had max-supply sized fleet. Had about 30 squads of mixed fighters and bombers.

I don't know if it's a bug that only happens when there are too many ships fighting, but essentially my fightercraft would launch and then just sit there doing nothing. I would have to manually order them to target the enemy (and yes i checked their attack status it was still on auto-attack), and after they killed it they would stop and do nothing again.

Anybody run into this?

There are a few issues with auto-attack on structures not working - what exactly were you trying to attack?

nothing at all. I just warped my fleet into the enemy planet set to attack all in gravity well, set to default auto-attack as well

the fighters just launch from the my ships and then stop doing anything unless i give them manual orders.

Normally the fighters will go out on their own and hit whatever enemy targets are in the gravity well, but in this case they just sat there.
