Trouble with a convoy

Collisions can be avoided by creating a trigger that is always true, something like

"If Platform Exists <ship that is always there> Then..."

Then having the trigger run a script that turns collision avoidence on. I've found that collision avoidence can be a problem for DW, particularly for ships in formation. It's not just evasion either. Sometimes one will turn to avoid a fishing boat and end up smacking into something else. The collision avoidence script seems to help a lot, though.

Might as well go with an automatic trigger, then.

You could made the convoy neutral till it reaches a certain point, or use a time tricker to change sites?
