help battlegroup
Battlegroup is a command to enable people to group together up to two wingships to a single flagship. To form your fleet, you need to go to the craft you wish to have join and send the request message, and then someone(You or another), will accept the request. Please note that the SQUADRON and BATTLEGROUP commands are completely seperate. Battlegroup only works between capital ships. 44Syntax: 51battlegroup join <flagship51> 44Syntax: 51battlegroup <requesting ship51> Once the ship is battlegrouped, you will be able to change its position within the fleet from its helm. There are three positions within a fleet: Outer, Midguard, and Inner, each having its advantages and disadvantages. Only ships in the outermost layer can be targetted, so keep this in mind when positioning your fleet. Keep in mind, that if you want your ships to have this protection, they must stay within 1000 units of the flagship. 44Syntax: 51battlegroup position <position #51> The battlegroup command also allows you to remotely control your fleet from the flagship, enabling you to control them just in just about every way. For an exact list of what you can and cannot have your ships do, consult HELP NAVCOMMANDS. It should also be noted that the -full- command has to be typed out. 44Syntax: 51battlegroup nav <ship/all51> <command51> 44 51battlegroup target <ship/all51> <victim51> In addition to attacking ships, should you position the fleet over a planet, it will be possible to bombard the planet using projectiles. Bombarding can perm players, and may have serious repercussions if used flippantly. Use this command with care. 44Syntax: 51battlegroup bombard <planet51> Due to the vast coordination power of the Flagship, there is a line for the flagship to issue commands to the pilots of all the other ships. However, the communication only works one way. 44Syntax: 51battlegroup message <message51> A ship can leave its battlegroup or be ejected from it by the battlegroup leader. 44Syntax: 51battlegroup quit 44 51battlegroup eject <ship51> 51See Also:31 NAVCOMMANDS FLEETRADAR SQUADRON
