Right. But the problem is assigning auto-explore on the group. It only does it on the group leader. You still have to assign it on all the others individually. Is there no way to assign/upgrade abilities on groups of ships?
Example 1: Scouts.
Select ten scouts, you right click on "auto-explore" to auto-cast it. It works on one ship. The other nine have to be done individually.
Example 2: Capital ships.
You have four new capital ships that need their levels upgraded. You select all three, go to the abilities, up grade to the next level, only one ship does it. You have to do the other two's upgrades individually.
It'd be nice if you could do multiple ships simultaneously, it'd save time. You could then, assign like abilities on whichever ships you wanted. Say you have five battleships, you could assign three of them with incindiary rounds and two with radiation bombs, by selecting three, then two, respectively. Rather than having to select all five individually...
