I seem to have an issue with it on 7.6 The normal rightclick menu on ships does not show.

It did indeed work in the end. I don't remember what I did because I tried too many things, but as I said, it worked in the end so the mod's fine.

Confirmed that this mod works with 7.5 — while using CE version [www.nexusmods.com] of the Mod APIs.

But make sure you uninstalled steam version of the APIs first, before installing CC edition. Steam version may overwrite CC version of the mod if it was not an installed cleanly.

How? I dont have any additional options in my right click menu even if this is the only enabled mod

It works on 7.5

Bro PLEASE update your mod and make it work again in the current version

Oh and maybe add a ' rescue people in range, immediate' functiom

Can u make a version without the whole 'same plane' mechanic? Just seems like it clogs up the menu for something i dont foresee using.

Sadly this mod does not seem to work on 7.00.

an awesome mod that is not working anymore. Hope it'll get fix :)

A real shame. I'm literally crying with the [insert 10 expletives] insanity of the AI just not doing what I say, when I say.

Maybe this mod cannot be used with version 7.00. The added orders do not appear in my environment, which includes only the all DLCs and SirNukes Mod support APIs.

Does this work on 6+?

All the commands have gone missing. Is this mod broken?

Seems to work for me so far, on 6.00 beta 3, might make a new comment if I start having problems though

The bug always occurs when I enter the info screen of a ship through "i" and then click on the wrench. BAM. When it hits, the game is toast. Completely hosed. Can't do anything useful.

There is a rather SERIOUS bug with this mod that destroys your ability to right click and even view ship info. This bug randomly occurs, but once it does the only solution is to exit the game and disable the mod. If you hit "i" on any ship from that point on you're completely locked out of right clicking on anything. I don't know what is going on but it ruins my enjoyment of an otherwise useful tool.

With this mod ships don't wait anymore.
Orders Fly and wait and dock and wait mean - fly or dock, proceed with further commands.

I need option to issue priority orders on top of the list but if I dock somewhere, I need this ship to wait until ordered to proceed with further orders.

I just noticed that all of the urgent orders had disappeared from my commands.

Is it outdated?

edit: deleted a comment below. I misunderstood/missed some of the descriptions - you in fact already had the features I was looking for (Immediate but without the Flee interrupts disabled)... you da man! :)

p.s. I LOVE your whole "but dont recall subordinates" options. Moving a fleet commander in a fight can be a hugeeee PITA as it fucks up the whole deployment... this fixes that

Hi Allectus,

Not sure if you are still active, is there any way to add a fly to and continue order ?

At the moment I use collect drops for this functionallity, but was hoping for something cleaner.

Thanks,

Question.
Is there an order for my S ships to attack only S ships in the zone ?

@Allectus While I don't speak for everybody, Its something I would use all the time. I primarily play with the Star Wars mod, and a lot of the capital ships are far more effective in a fight if you manually give them waypoints as opposed to an attack order, so them doing exactly what I tell them would definitely be a welcome addition

@Fal' Soram (and everyone else, as well, I guess): I believe I could finagle something to *force* a ship to go to precisely the location specified by the order (rather than just the general vicinity, which is how the standard move works by design). For safety's sake it would only be possible to issue to one ship at a time, otherwise you could end up in some really bad game states (intersecting/colliding ships, etc)....Is that something you legitimately think would be useful?

To be clear by useful I mean that it would actually be used frequently, even if I limited it to only working when you had precisely one ship in your selection)? Every order I add is realistically 5 other orders (such as your previous suggestion) rejected, so it actually has to be worth it....

Thats a shame, but understandable. The only workaround Ive found is moving their waypoint every so often before they enter travel mode. Unfortunately move orders under 10KM aren't a solution though, for me anyways capital ships tend to just do whatever the hell they want when you do that, not even going near the point marked, let alone the same plane.

Released v1.2.1:

* 1.2.1, 2021-05-22: Corrected menu display error in German translation.

@Sasbill & @Fal'Soram, I'm little reluctant to implement orders that can be relatively easily worked around because modders don't have the ability to create drop down menus, so the right click menu will get very heavily crowded--I'm already getting a bunch of complaints about the number of orders appearing in the menu....

@Sasbill: Attack all already has some light vanilla logic to try and assign ships appropriately (though I haven't validated that it works properly) Try setting the fighters to the intercept assignment on a ship you're more closely controlling.

@Fal' Soram: Try issuing a move order closer to the target (~10km usually works) before issuing the attack order. You could even use one of the immediate orders to issue it after issuing the attack order if you notice your ships not behaving.

Is it at all possible to have a move order that blocks the AI from using travel drive? Would improve capital ship movement in combat alot if they arent trying to travel drive somewhere thats only a few KM away, which usually ends up throwing them wildly out of position

Released v1.2:

1.2, 2021-05-11: Added support for Wing Hotkeys Mod; Added Attack Targets in Range, Immediate command; Corrected position offset error when camera was tilted; Added CN translation

@乘风365 : Thanks for the reports, I believe I've addressed them in the most recent release

@Allectus:"<t id="2008">Dock and Wait, Urgent</t>",Also, this article in the text, I can't display the correct Chinese after translation, is there a mistake in the code?

@Allectus :I found some problems in use, for example, when tilting the view, the urgent command does not reach the target position correctly, but will be far off.

@乘风365:. Thanks so much! I'll incorporate it into the next release.

You are a god my man, thank you so much for this.

This is bloody fukin brilliant.

If i may, i'suggest reconsidering the options to /same plane to be default, and remove the ecliptic option, i think it's irrelevant. This is very intuitive in a 3D combat perspective, if we want to set up a move, we have to manually adjust the height anyways, and that's the plane we want to use for the maneuver. If we want to use the ecliptic, we can use the default move, which implies a normal gate-to-gate move out of combat, dropping satellites, or something trivial like that.

Nice.

@Allectus ：Thanks for your work, just what I needed, now I added the Chinese, please check github, thanks!

Released v1.1: Added DE translation; Added "Dock and Wait, Urgent"; Allowed "Fly..." commands to take other objects as targets; Fixed bug in "...Urgent" commands that would cause them to not properly ignore attacks

Thanks to FAIL! Chapi for the german translation.

Also, a note on the urgent behavior:

* Urgent orders may still be interrupted by the comm-player-for-instructions behavior, which could result in an automatic flee behavior being assigned while it awaits your response. Either respond to the com and tell them to continue, or allow it to time out (~10 sec) and they will resume the urgent command. I'm still considering how best to handle this (I'm somewhat reluctant to stop that interrupt due to possible unforseen consequences). See the v1.1 release video for a breakdown of how it behaves currently.

That said, the ignore attack behavior for "Urgent" commands was broken in 1.0 and is fixed (but for the above exception) in 1.1

@Warlock: I think I've identified an issue preventing "urgent" from properly ignoring attacks, but I'd like to run a few more tests to be sure. I'll likely release a fix (much) later tonight or tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience!

@Warlock: Thanks for the report. I'll see if I can reproduce and if so what I can try to do to wrestle control back.

I presume this was a destroyer--what was it doing before it picked up the attack command?

Whelp unfortunately the mod doesn't seem towork. I had a ship decide to take a station on its own. I command it to run the heck away and nothing happens, still hard locked to attack the station. I override the attack and change it to flee, then tell it to fly and wait urgent, it ignores the command and hard locks back to attack. I think the issue is, every time the ship gets shot, it loops back to the attack command which ends up overriding you urgent order. I don't think it is your mod, I think it is just an issue with native as I have had the same issue over and over since I started playing the game. Result is usually dead ships that shouldn't be dead.

Now all we need is something that makes capital ships go where you tell them to, and not where ever they feel like in the general area.

@CDEEKS I don't doubt you've seen something :-)

It's just that without being able to reproduce it I don't even know where to begin to try to address it.

I will keep a close eye on it when it happens ill make a video

OMG!!!!! YOU SIR ARE A GOD!!!! I have been begging anyone and everyone to make a mod like this.

@CDEEKS, This is what I'm seeing on my side: https://youtu.be/G5-HBPaL0Mw

There are some notes in the existing vanilla code about possible infinite loops if certain checks aren't completed properly. I wonder if the cheat scripts you're running to kill things might have gotten you stuck in such a loop?

In any case, if you can provide reproduction steps from a new game using the cheat menu to spawn stuff in then I can definitely take a look at trying to resolve whatever's happening. I just have not been able to reproduce it on my end.

Yes but the recall command is triggered weather i want it or not. for example i tell my trader to go to fly urgently using your mod and the recall drones command is added automatically above yours. and it can not be canceled right away and the drones are no where to be seen so the ship sits in a stae of idle forever. like i said it is a vanilla game bug atm so nothing to do with your mod but it is making your mod seem broken since urgent means now not in infinite time later lol

@CDEEKS, I can take a look at assessing the feasibility of overriding that for urgent commands.

As an aside recall commands are issued as standard auto commands with normal precedence. Commands enter a "critical" state when they are very near to completion and are flagged to not be interrupted. So you'd only end up in that state if you did something to issue a recall command and then allowed it to proceed to near completion.

My design goal here was to keep you from entering a recall command if you didn't wish to enter it, not (currently...) in scope was exiting a recall command that's already in place.

Thats the problem it is a critical locked command recall drones and it can not be cancelled. And bec it cant be it keeps all urgent orders below it. i think this is a base game issue and i have been using cheat mod to work around it where i set my fleets default order as [CHEAT]Recall Drones. it is essentially teleportation the drones back to hold. or destroying old ones and spawning same amount in hold. Either way it beats sitting there for 30 min while your drones decide if they want to come or not lol. but i just wanted to mention to you bec many people who use this mod prob wont have cheat mod installed to bypass it and if there trying to use urgent orders and wondering why there not working as intended it may be bec the recall drone bug.
