I will be interested in the feedback.

BTW When I tested ASB (Not Ironman) there are lots of changes to the combat. My fleet power was higher, slower ships and different behavior. In fact the slow battle changed the out come to a completely dominating win by my fleet.

In ASB Ironman the result for the same battle resulted in a far more even result for the fight..

Thank you I will find out!

What is happening to your ships is not this mod. This mod does not affect the strategy or behavior of ships in any way.

The only affect this mod has is to improve ship spacing in the formation.

ASB however does change ship combat behavior.

Hello, I humbly ask a question I'm using Amazing Space Battle with it, and I've noticed that everyone in the fleet advances in formation and gets very close to the enemy. At this point, the escorts and destroyers don't swarm forward (I've set up swarm tactics) but instead advance in a line. Since range is important in fleet battles, I've found that with high range, the fleet gets very close to the enemy and takes a lot of damage. Is this how the module works? Thank you for your answer.

it does not have any negative affects on combat.

Does this affect the ship combat at all?

@ 【稻妻】雷电将军 I have updated the launched fighter positioning within the fleet formation.

You do not seem to have modified the height of distribution of carrier-based aircraft, which are always under the fleet when the fleet fights

Ok thank you very much. Sorry for such a noob question.
