Default Set Move To ?

What happened to the Set Move To button that was on the Construction Menu in SEIV? How do you tell ships built at a given space yard to automatically move to a waypoint?

That is on the second page of the queue settings screen, below Ebuild, pause queue and repeat build.

I had no idea it was there until Aaron mentioned it personally. Definitely needs to be more obvious.

PS:
Oh, and it might not actually show up until you have a waypoint to send to.
Select a hex, and hit CTRL-#

Thanks SJ, I agree it's buried too deep. How/where do I manage waypoints? Delete them etc.? It appears that ctrl # is not a toggle? When I hit ctrl # to create a waypoint it said waypoint 3 created, but I haven't created any others. And when I went to the menu you pointed out above, waypoint 3 was the only choice, so something weird is going on.

What they mean by CTRL-# is CTRL-1 to 9, not CTRL-SHIFT-3.

Pressing CTRL-1 makes Waypoint 1, CTRL-2 Waypoint 2, etc. If you want to move it just make it again somewhere else.

Well heck, no matter where or how many times I use ctrl # it says waypoint 3 created? I can only create one waypoint!?

Is there a way to show all the waypoints (or the systems you created them in) you've created, like you could walk thru them in SEIV?
