Description
This mod adds a new default behavior "Reaction Force". This command will allow you to assign ships to respond to other vessels within a certain range that need support.


Features
- Set a ship as "Reaction Force" and it will respond to your ships and stations within it's range that come under attack.
- When nothing is in need of help, the reaction force will either patrol the system set as its home/protect the station set as its home/or dock and wait.

Notes
- On updating it is a good practice to clear all orders besides the default
- GERMAN, CHINESE, JAPANESE TRANSLATION PROVIDED
- RECOMMENDED COMPANION MOD - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3488447730


Known Bugs
Setting a reaction force to Def for a sector will cancel the order

Why they keep canceling attack order?
I tried to increase treat level, but it`s always the same even on lvl 1.
Dispatch - cancel.

Possibility to get on github and use its issue tracker? I avoid Nexus Mods like the plague since many many years ago an ad put malware on my system because they didn't bother vetting advertisers.

Uh I'll look into it.

I suppose I should add that I know there's a way to turn them off in the Global Orders etc, but I do want that notification on certain ships, so I suppose I should've asked if it was possible for the AI to understand that "Reaction Force" is a standing order and that they don't need to "await orders". If there's not a way then I wouldn't sweat it of course.

What's up Shibdib! Is it possible to stop the Reaction Force from constantly informing me that they're awaiting orders? I thought Silent Notifications would achieve that but it doesn't seem to be the case.

I should probably update the screenshot with all the new options

Just tried it out and works great thnx for an awesome mod :)
Ravayen 21 Jun @ 9:40am 
does it actually make them a subordinate? i thought they remained as a fleet which is why i asked before downloading.
Tried using that position defence thing but for some reason you can only have one group on a station doing it unlike carriers, so was looking for something better that didnt have more fleets showing in the UI.
Shibdib  [author] 21 Jun @ 9:20am 
@Ravayen the "Assign as home base" option already does this.
Ravayen 20 Jun @ 8:24pm 
Any plans to add this to stations as subordinates?
