Ok, so we are prepairing for war. So lets post our progress and things here.

So far I have ordered enough col ships to get my planet count up to exactly 100. I dont plane on building any more col ships this round after these.

Most of my existing col ships are on route to their new planets, and most of my existing planets are building. 78 planets colonised so far...

Anyway, overnight I plan to bioform lots, and build basic buildings on all planets...

While you build up your colonies, ill build up my fleets so i can take them away from you.

I have all the ship classes, engines, systems, and weapons researched, plus enough planets to get enough ships out to run down some of your planets.

46 planets, some of which are fully built, most 50% there.

Please rename your fleets to "battle test 1", "battle test 2", etc. I'll use them in preliminary battle system tests. Don't be afraid they will not be destroyed. I need 2-3 from each of you.

Ok, so how many ships in each? Few or lots or any?
BTW I am building some ships now. Will be a few turn untill I have a fair fleet, maybe about 15 turns or so...

It doesn't matter actually at least few should be in a fleet of course

Ok, I have 3 fleets named as you said, they only have 2 - 3 ships right now, but I will add more as they build.

I'll move them to an empty system where I can easily test it.

How do i make more then one ship in a fleet.

I still have no bloody clue as to how to do that... I move all my ships together but as seperate entities.

Click the arrows in the left menu of the fleet you want to move ships from, then, drag the individual ship name (not fleet name) to the right menu, and if their are other fleets in this then drop the name over another fleet. Then scroll to the top, and confirm the move. You will have to scroll to the top to see whats in the right menu also...its like drag drop and scroll all at the same time...

Anyway, then they should move, but the old empty fleet remains until next turn.

1 - Click on a fleet (on left side) you want to move ships from.
2 - On right side a list of other fleets in same system should appear.
3 - Drag ship name (from fleet on left side) and drop it on fleet you want them transfered to (on the right side)
4 - A dialog with desired transfer quantity should appear.
5 - Set the desired quantity and press transfer.
6 - empty fleets will be cleared next turn.

Hope it helps.

PS: Read gray text over lists.

Nope it doesnt work for me. I cant move ships from anywhere to anywhere else.

Why do all ships start off in their own fleets anyways? They should start off as single vessels that can or can not be added to a fleet.

Having them ALL be in fleets is kind annoying since players like me dont know what the hell theyre doing...

EDIT: Another thing: I have over 120 ships and thereby over 120 fleets so far.... I cant drag and drop anything anyways because I cant drag and drop and scroll at the same time.

Maybe it's a browser issue. Try clearing it's cash. Then try one more time. If it doesn't work make some screens on what you are doing and send them to me.

You should, at least I can. When holding left mouse button just use your mouse wheel to scroll.

I am usually able to do that too, but i cant for some reason. My mouse wheel works fine and it works on other parts of the browser, but i cant get it to now. Once my Ships arrive, if i can condense the top of the list, i can condense the whole list alot. Theres only supposed to be 4 or 5 fleets, so hopefully i can just drag and drop the top ones in.
