Default Re: Forgetful Sentries

Maybe I have my forces spread too thin, but yes, I could do that for the site of the battle. But that doesn't address all other ships in that system that now have had their orders cleared because they "saw" the enemy. I'm currently playing a game where there are numerous warp points that I'm defending (probably about 40-50). Also there are a few border systems that I have yet to fully control. Each time an enemy makes it into a system, all the ships in that system "awaken". I am probably issuing 100+ sentry orders per turn and it is very frustrating.

Maybe it's time for some stellar manipulations to simplify the map.

Would "move to [current location], repeat orders" work? [edit: looks like we both typed the same thing at the same time]
