(6/18/2014 9:08:48 PM) I think this could be very easily implemented in the current UI simply by adding two new dropdown menus to the build order screen. One with a list of fleets which newly built ships automatically join, there would have to be a [none] option also. One with a list of spaceports telling which is to build them, there would have to be an [any] option to keep current behavior. I think the Troops screen could do with a similar update. Where you can build and transfer troops according to the dropdown filter list. All it needs is two buttons added.

Tormodino -> RE: Being able to build ships directly for/into a fleet... (6/18/2014 9:28:20 PM) That is another excellent alternative addition to the UI. Hopefully something like this can get implemented.

If the build order screen refreshed each time you clicked build, or chose a different spaceport you could for example build '5 frigates' at 'spaceport 1' and at the same time '3 destroyers' at 'spaceport 2' Imagine if there were also checkboxes at the end of each line for infinite build ala Gal Civ 2. Build batches of '2 escorts' at 'spaceport 3' to join 'escort fleet forever' ...infinitely, or for as long as cashflow is positive or resources hold out.
