Just a few quick questions... 1) How do you set your planes to randomly fly around your base without having to set them on patrol? I saw an option for it but upon clicking it, nothing happened; they just sat there as normal and landed. 2) Is it possible to set rally points, and if so, how? I saw a guy with a ton of bot factories and all of his Dox were all going to the same place when they spawned from the factories instead of just sitting outside of them. 3) Is it possible to make your control groups visible? I always use the control groups (1 to 0 on your keyboard) but sometimes I forget which control groups have what in them and what control groups I set up at all. EDIT: Forgot a question: 4) How do you make moons orbiting other moons? Like moon-ception... I see that a lot but I can't figure out how to recreate it in the system editor.
There is a mod (anchor buttons) that shows a panel with all of the control groups on it. The numbers light up when you have set a group. That mod is broken for now, but it will be fixed hopefully soon.
1 To area patrol, click patrol on the right-hand command bar and then hold and drag left click to draw a circle to patrol in. If you drag off the edge of the planet it will patrol the entire planet. 2 Select your factories and right click a piece of ground. 3 No, but it might help to go into 'UI' in settings menu and turn selection icons on, which highlights your currently selected units as light blue. 4 An orbiting planet needs to have a lower mass than the planet it is orbiting. Size doesn't matter.
The anchor buttons mod has been fixed. Check it out! I think you need to go into the settings after you install it to turn on the control group buttons.
