Micromanagement problem

Anti-matter is precious.

from Sins Forums

    I encountered a problem when playing the game that I do not believe warrants e-mailing support, barely. The problem is that when a ship has two ability options, the ability consuming the least amount of anti-matter (and usually the lesser cool-down time) activates over and over. My capital ships, for instance, would never use top end abilities if I did not micromanage it.

I think you need to learn how to micro the forum first...

The only way around it is to babysit your precious fleet. Or, manage the whole thing from the Empire Tab thing.

you can turn of the atuo-cast thing on an ability by right clicking it, it solved alot of headaches for me cause i could never use the big gun on the TEC Kol casue it kept atuo-casting enhanced sheilds even though it had maximum sheilds

Well, if your on the defensive (AKA have max antimatter) it works a little better, but you are right about how it doesn't prioritize as well as it might in some ways.
