JCM3000 -> Changing an escort ship's formation station point (12/2/2017 3:36:47 AM)

Hi all,

I'm having a bit of trouble with ship formations. I'm playing Midway vs Cuba scenario and would like to detach one of my ASW FFG to run out ahead and maintain station about 12nm ahead of the rest of the leading escorts of the main CVBG, and then Sprint and drift from that station.

So I detached the FFG, moved it ahead of the group and then reattached the FFG to the group. Unfortunately as soon as I reattached it to the group it started moving back to it's original station point relative to the carrier. And I can't seem to move the station point.

Any help would be appreciated.

Select group, press F4 of select menu Unit orders > Group operations > Formation editor
Select ship on the map or at the Formation editor window
Click button Set station relative or fixed bearing and click on the map at desired place
Set checkbox Sprint and drift

Thanks Flitch, that did the trick. The click and drag didn't work. Appreciate it!
