I've actually had a lot of success using the increment method. I noticed very early on that the coordinates in game are different than the ones used in the programming. The coordinates in the game stop at x.60 before changing to the next x coordinate where in the programming it goes to x.99. I have no problem getting the ships to show up exactly where I want them. They just don't stay in the formation I want them to. The ctrl+D will help may help in exactly placing the ships, especially land batteries, so I'll try it and get accustomed to it. Thank you for the tip. I'm going to try to space the ships using increments of .10 or .15 and see if that helps. It does seem like they are over correcting to avoid collisions. That may explain the big swarming mass. If anyone has any other tips for making scenarios, I'm all ears!
