1. What orders should be given to replenishment air groups aboard CVEs in order for them to replenish carrier airgroups while in a replenishment TF?

>> I suggest training (I use to set 70%). The training missions are supposed to be classroom training (see point 3)

2. Will they still fly to the airgroups that need aircraft if their orders are to stand down?

>> Yes

3. Can replenishment airgroups also take part in combat if neccessary?

>> No. The carriers are overloaded (the parked planes occupy most of the flight deck, so no landing operations are possible).

4. How do replenishment groups replenish their own aircraft?

>> Automatically when in range of bases.

A little off thread, but close.

Replen CVE are not identified.

Would it help if they do not show when requesting a CV TF, and only appear when requesting a Replen TF?

It takes me a lot of note taking to keep up with these CVE.

The problem, from a coding POV is that there are no actual dedicated replenishment CVEs, only dedicated replenishment squadrons. Bring the so called replenishment CVEs back to carrying no more aircraft than 110% of rated aircraft capacity and presto they are just a normal combat ready CVE.
