make sure the fighters have their homebase set to the carrier, then use the attack all enemies and land command. When there are no enemies in range they'll automatically land on the carrier.

This is the command they launch with when the carrier is attacked and they launch automatically.

Is that what you were asking?

I notice that little trick doesn't work with TL's. :(
I can tell my wingmen to return home to get them to dock all at once, but is there any way to make all of them launch at once from a TL?

Found the answer to my own question.

For anyone else wondering how to get a group of wingmen to undock from a TL, select one of the docked ships and open it's command window.
You can then broadcast messages to other docked ships in the sector including wingmen and other misc ship classes.

The protect or attack commands will make them all undock and go to work and once the fun's over the return home command will make them all dock. (the TL is each ship's homebase)
