I'm about to start firing my first missiles in anger at a pair of precursor ships. Unfortunately, however, there are about 5 million km between the theoretical and actual firing range, thanks to their ECM. This means that I am not able to do any increment time longer than 5s as, every 5s it tells me that my fighters have locked onto the enemy, but cannot yet fire due to the ECM.Hit the "Cease Fire" button. This will stop them trying to fire. Then move to the range that the message tells you the fire control will work, and hit "Open Fire". (All this on the combat control (targetting icon on top of F3) of course).
Is there any way to make it such that I don't have to waste a large quantity of time waiting for the fighters to get into range in 5s increments?
