cargo wingmen

Post by firestarter »

My suggestion is a new command for comanding wingmen to hold their current position in space.
My reson for suggesting this is that while in a larger ship such as a mule trying to tractor a cargo wingmen can be quite difficult due to the fact that that the wingman is always repositioning to try and get on your wing and on a large ship such as a mule the turning is too slow to get the wingman in your sights, evan with auto tracking.
so far iv managed by telling my wingman to attack a target a long way away and then matching his speed to catch him as he flys away. But since there are not always hostile targets around this is not always possible.

A docking order would also be a good idea (and probably better suited for the circumstances you described).
