And while we're at it, how about an "Attack from x distance" command? It's stupid for bombers and missile frigates to move in very close. It'd also be useful to be able to command a capital ship or a corvette with heavy weapons to stay back and bombard the enemy.

The script !move.followship.shadowing.xml
is already included with TC. You just have to start it manually because there is no button for it.

The ship stays at maximum scanner range while following $Target...
My complete script download page. . . . . . I AM THE LAW!
There is no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
