Suggestion for Position Defense: Buttons to allowing engaging S/M and L/XL targets

Post by Falcrack »

Position defense is great, but is limited by some missing options. Say I have interceptors on position defense, I would want them to engage others fighters and not destroyers, assuming both are present. Same with bombers on position defense, I would want them to focus on capital ships.

What I think would be good is a button in the position defense options (available when you right click on the position defense circle) to allow engaging S/M ships (like the intercept assignment), and a button to allow engaging L/XL ships (like the bombard assignment). If both buttons were on, then they would attack everything.

We already have buttons to allow them to join in defending other positions or to return to the carrier for repairs, these new buttons could just be added there.
