Hi!
Can someone with great skills make a mod in AP that could make M6 class ships jump together like fighters do??
M6 are not capital ships so they should not jump one by one..
Thanks!!

Using Beacon Jump follower ships should all jump together after the leader.
Actually I randomized follower jumps slightly so they individually initiate jump somewhere between 1-4 seconds after the leader, as it looks cooler this way when you can see your fleet jumping in beside you (with the beacon jump mechanism, the ships appear with the jump flash rather than just warping).
Note:
- It's a p2p jump script.
- It integrates with player initiated jump commands (no files overwritten) turning them into p2p versions. Move to position p2p jumps to position, move to station p2p jumps beside the station etc.
- Shift-J is the exception as it's hardcoded ; a hotkey is supplied which allows shift-J to be reassigned. Downside is that SETA doesn't speed up the jump.
- Since jump beacons remain virtually unobtainable, unfortunately the only real way to use this is to enable the beaconless jump mode by inserting the following line in 9052-L044.xml:
<t id="666" />
On a related note the Replication script can take the micromanagement out of keeping your fleet supplied with jumpfuel. It's the primary reason I wrote the script.

Thanks!! will try it when I get back home tonight..
the main reason I wanted something like this is because I made a 6 HCP and 1 Hyp.V. wing as rapid response team that will kill any hostiles detected in my SEWN network.. this wing does great job at defending their home sector but got wiped out when I tried to make them respond to a pirate dragon+escorts attacking Hatikvah's Faith.. I was stunned at first when I saw the message log so I recreated the wing (with cheats) and order them to attack that same dragon but this time I'll watch the fight.. it is then I discovered that m6 jump one by one
