i was curious if there could be something implemented to duplicate a set fleet design with ships on hand
for example if i wanted to set up multiple fleets with the design of

lmm
lmm
lmm
lmm
cutter

i could do that and then click duplicate fleet and it would do so until something in the formula ran out
such as a lack of officers needed or one of the ships not being able to fill the set fleet design
i think it would benefit large traders and make the fleeting of a mass amount of fleets possible without a loss of to much time

Would it look similar to the mass upgrade screen?

I think it wouldnt be a bad idea.

Have a screen look like the mass upgrade but with dropdowns instead, and a port to select to form each fleet. It wouldnt be too shabby in my opinion.

+1

IIRC, CJ did say it's one of the things planned to be added but other things seems to have overwriten this priority.
