Pet Formation Option

Pets do a good job of spreading out and not being totally wiped out from torp spreads and such. But, they spend a lot of time hitting target shields and not hull.
Possible option to help. Add a formation button. Your pets form up with you and fire at the same target you do. More of their firepower hits the same shield facing on the target. Pets may be more vulnerable in formation, but that would be the price.

My little hangar pets tend to go off on their own and shoot random targets. Not much use.
Mostly just keep them on guard duty shooting down High Yield Plasma torpedo's and the like.
Having a formation, with controlled targets, now that would make a Carrier really stand out.
Ok, maybe not stand out, but it would help.
I love carrier type of ships when the pets manage to actually stay with me and not running away, like they mostly do to find their own adventures, or fall behind the half sector if i use full impulse.
The Wing cannon platforms for the Kumari works great, but they are not actual pets, as in carrier, but if carrier pets could stick in formation like that, it would be a lot better.
Of course, the actual result of this would be the entire wing ignoring your commands and flying off to the other side of the galaxy.
