Summary0024010: Should waves that warp in on an AI planet and fly through normal space group move?
DescriptionWaves that warp in on an AI planet and then fly through normal space to your planet currently don't group move, so if there are different ship types they arrive at different times. Should they group move so they all arrive at the same time? (Cancel the group move once they get to the target planet or are interrupted of course)

Honestly cross planet waves are kinda fine as is? There should be some sort of benefit to the player for breaking direct warp-gate connection and having the AI send in a wave indirectly. Especially since if this is in effect the AI can choose some rather interesting routing if you have a poorly reinforced system. The only thing that would make a bit more sense is having the Hunter and Threat fleets sync a bit better with these waves.

@CRCGamer What about cases when the AI chooses to do cross planet wave even though they could warp directly into your planet?

From what I remember that sort of behavior is when the AI doesn't think the wave alone is near enough to actually threaten a planet and is liable to auto-retreat it to become threat anyways.
