AI Moving Fighters In-System

Someone asked me this on my Highliner thread, but I'm stumped as to a solution.

How do you get the AI to use Fighters in strategic combat?

EDIT - I'm assuming this is other than from carriers...

As far as I know, you can't.

Sometimes you see a few fighters on the map, but those are left over from a battle and they don't move.

I am not sure if I understand your question correctly: In strategic combat I see no problem for the AI with fighters but probably you mean that the AI moves fighters in the system without carriers.
That indeed I never saw the AI doing, not even to resupply the fighters. One more thing for the next patch!

That's what I think Maleldil was asking in his question here. I'd never seen it either, but I wanted to double-check with the more experienced folks here.

Well, that's that then. Not that I won't continue to tinker with my AIs to make them tougher...

He said on the system map..that's a bit different from Strategic combat.

i think this should be put to Newbie FAQ / Modding 101 or whatever
