This query came out of another post talking about structure busters, and how they can destroy starbases from long range without being damaged, but whenever I ask my cap ships or structure busters to attack a starbase, they insist on moving right up to it. How to I command ships to stop and fire form long range?
thanks
Have you tried setting the engagement range to "Hold Position"?
By default, this is set to "Gravity Well" (so it engages anything and everything that is hostile in the gravity well), but can be set to "Local Area" (exactly how "local" is a mystery to me) and "Hold Position". The button has a large blue oval for the entire well, smaller green for local area, and I believe a small red X for hold position.
Yep tried that, turned off Auto Attack and set them to hold position, but as soon as I asked them to attack the starbase, they moved right up to it.
