Cannot give coherent orders to ship on repeat orders.

Post by Submarine » Fri, 18. Jun 21, 18:07

This has proved to be a problem a few times now where a ship running repeat trade orders is accosted by a pirate and I need to get them to safety from OOS and I cannot add specific orders to the repeat orders which works, the new orders are just ignored even if right at the top of the list.

The only way to give direct orders is to erase the repeat orders which can take a while to set up and its a pain having to repeat them after the incident is handled if I can even remember them!

You can't even add in an order to repair a ship because when using repeat orders the option simply does not appear and again you have to erase the repeat orders to get anything done.

This is contrary to the convention for all other ship orders and while being idiosyncratic is not a crime, its not working very well in play.

It should not be so awkward to do these things.
