I am requesting that you add a feature to DW2. In previous versions I was able to give a ship 2 orders at one time. For some reason I am not able to do so in DW2. This is a needed feature. I frequently have 15 or more fleets with six or more ships in each fleet. when I develop a strategy it is difficult to implement that strategy if I have to constantly remember and enter the path for each ship and fleet.

Example. I want fleet 5 to move across my known galaxy to position for an offense or defense. However, I have to order the ship to refuel on the way. Because I can't stack two or more orders for the fleet I have to monitor the fleet as well as manage the 14 other fleets. This makes it almost impossible to coordinate multiple fleet attacks and/or defenxe. Please reinsert the previous rule that allows me to give multiple orders. A minimum of two orders is required, I prefer 3 or more.

They have said this is in the works and part of the QoL changes we will see down the road now when most of the technical issues are fixed.

It is possible, assuming your fleet tactics allow for manual postures, to refuel automated fleets, and set a new home base for the fleet. This allows them to move to refuel and subsequently move to new home base.

It's not much but it helps a little.
