The wiki states that "you can assign staff positions, these officers grant a bonus to the entire system they are in for fleets.", but I am wondering how it relates to extra task forces etc. If I only ever have my original task force from the game start (Fleet Command), then obviously all task groups will belong to that task force and reside under any branches I have decided to make for it. The bonuses provided by the staff officers will be passed (at 25% rate) to all ships therefore in that task force. Does this only apply when they are in the same system? If my main battle fleet takes a trip to Alpha Centauri will they now loose any bonuses that were being given to them while in Sol?
I expect the answer is yes and so I am wondering how extra task forces help, if I were to create a new task force (Alpha Centauri command) but not assign any ships to it. Now when my fleet moves into the system will it.
A: Exchange the bonuses from the sol task force for the ones being provided by staff at the Alpha task force
B: Loose the bonuses from leaving the Sol system but not gain any from the Alpha task force unless I reassign the fleet task group to the Alpha task force?
The other issue I have is how to move a task force, the task force organisation page has options for creating a new task force. But when I try to use the drop down menu to move it to a new population I only ever see Earth as an option. How do I move a task force to a location other than Earth and outside the Sol system?
