Summary0013504: Combat - make ship move slower
DescriptionMy first idea is to let ship move slower if you set the target point for movement at a shorter range: in other words, one turn -> ship can move full range shown when in "select movement" phase, so if you set the target at lower range, ship will move slower.

Anyway not sure if it's the best approach; still I think it should be a way to move slower

I strongly support this. Very often I find myself unhappy with either having to go too far to keep moving, or having to stop abruptly after moving to where I want to end up before I change direction.

EDIT: I expanded upon this in a new ticket 0013505

This is unfortunately basically impossible to do with curved movements, at least with how we are doing the math. Or rather, it's not technically impossible, but we don't know how to do it, let's put it that way. ;)

The new system that we're putting in place in .816 relies on you setting distances to address how much you can maneuver anyhow, so I think that would take care of this.
