[suggestion] default orders

hey, just got the game yesterday and i’m enjoying it so far.

i’d like to suggest that it be possible to give a certain ship class a default set of orders under ship design or from the deployment screen.
or to be able to copy ships that you’ve already deployed so that you don’t have to change the orders for each individual ship.

i’m not sure if saving deployment does that or saves everything, but it was frustrating to have to redo orders for the ships even though you could do it to multiple ships at the same time

In the deployment screen, assign orders to one of your ship, then right click that ship and select ‘save orders’.

You can also double click ships to select all of the same type that you have deployed (and then change their orders together) or control click ships to select exactly which ones you want to change together, including ships of multiple types.
