Any ETA of when this area could be revisited ?

Earlier today, I've posted two bug reports. One is related to refueling, the other to retrofitting. But the two topics interact with each other (for those interested, see https://forums.matrixgames.com/viewtopic.php?p=5291729#p5291729 and https://forums.matrixgames.com/viewtopic.php?p=5291742 ...

Is there a way to quickly merge 2 fleets into 1 ?

I don't see anything other than removing the ships one by one and adding them to the other fleet one by one.


No, sadly, there isn't any functionality in the UI to split or merge fleets. But instead of doing the ships one by one, you can use CC ...
