It'd be nice if you know what kind of hull variant you're using. For example I have two variants of Escorts, but the game still labels them as "Escort #" in automated designs, I need go into new designs and check each variant for minute differences which is annoying. [s]All of the ship tactic terms are different from DW1, and even if I didn't have experience with a previous title I'd still have zero clue regarding the terms like "cautious", "aggressive", or "picket". I want to set my escort to remain in the max range of its highest range weapon, like a missile launcher, and not get close to the enemy ship. I was told this was picket through another user on Discord, but it'd be nice if it was shown in-game.[/s]

A better idea, have every tour page link the relevant page on their topic in galactopedia, because there was actually an explanation there.

That discord user hasn't given you correct information. Cautious sets your escort to remain at max range. Picket means that the ship forms a defensive perimeter around attack ships.
