Changing a task group to another task force

[mobotium (OP)]

How to?

I never managed to figure this one out. I ended up going into the naval organization tab in the task groups window and creating a new branch for my new task force, adding the ships of the task group I wanted to make a part of that task force to the new branch, and then creating a new task group from that branch. Bit of a pain, though.

Going off memory here...

Select the group. Copy group (right side). Then select the new owner and paste it.

Doesent seem to work, the task group still appears under Fleet Command in the task force window

You need to form a new TG from the 4th tab of the TG screen (F12) using a node in the tree that's a child of the appropriate TF.  The pulldown on the 1st tab does not work.

One other thing...  The child nodes in the 4th tab are NOT TG (meaning a collection of ships that can be given orders in the 1st tab).  You can form a TG from the contents of a child node, but the children themselves are not TG.
