Default Shouldn\'t we have a way to...

Place units in the 'combat view'? I find it frustrating that ships exiting out of warp points gets away from my satellite defense simply because all the silly satellites are automatically placed to the middle-left of the wormhole and I can't find any way to move them.

And while on the 'combat view' issue, it's very annoying that units/ships that haven't been moved in the system view starts new combats where they were when the last combat ended. Just spent ten combats( they time out because I'm so far away) catching up with a fleeing enemy ship when I got a fast ship to the sector.

*Yikes* found it, ingenius.

i have a problem with placing units around some of the planets. when i launch satellites some of them are put behind the planet and are almost impossible to select, especially on planets with rings. Any suggestions on how to select them. i would of course prefer to be able to rotate the combat view screen but that is not yet an option.

You can change the combat view mode to top-down I believe.
