Improvement idea:
Fleet Auto replenishment.

Note, auto replenishment only works if the fleet is home bases to a system with a shipyard.

Fleet 1 with a home base of Sol.

Fleet 1 consists of a 10 Destroyer task-force and has the fleet replenishment option selected in the Fleet screen.

Example A
Fleet 1 enters combat and loses 2 ships, remaining 80% effective.

Fleet auto replenishment kicks in and Sol (being the location where the fleet is based) auto builds 2 ships and adds them to the fleet. Fleet AI will kick in once they are built sending them to the fleet.

Example B
Fleet 1 enters combat and loses 8 ships, remaining 20% effective.

Fleet auto replenishment kids in and Sol auto builds the 8 ships, Fleet AI, know understanding that the fleet is no longer combat effective (a configurable % value in the options) falls the fleet back to the home base system with a RRR (regroup, refuel and repair) command.

I understand there are a number of situations that don't fall into the mix but it could be managed with Fleet AI tweeks and the Auto Replenishment configuration.

That's my idea, hope you like it.
