As the title says:

1) Please have an Alpha Sort for military fleets. It takes an enormous amount of time to search for a particular fleet as the fleet grows. I have a fleet naming system that is great ... however ... without Alpha Sort, Fleet Power Sort, Alpha Hull Class Sort, Alpha Location Sort etc. it takes far too much time staring at all the many fleets attempting to find the one I am looking for.

2) Anti-Pirate Fleets add to this severe problem by clogging up an already lengthy battle fleet list. A check box to note this fleet is an "Anti-Pirate Fleet" and a Separate Tab on the Outliner for Anti-Pirate Fleets would go a long way to improving the constant time consuming search for a military fleet.

Please, this is the main issue I have that lessens the fun. I love this game. You have done wonderful work with this game ... but ... a Fleet Management System should be a Simple improvement:
* Alpha Sort is a must... and to sweeten that also allow Fleet Power Sort and Location sort. Even a Hull Class Sort would be very helpful.
*Separate Anti-Pirate Fleets from Military Fleets on the outliner to reduce greatly the number of fleets when searching for a military fleet. Anti-Pirate fleets are somewhat static but Military Fleets are active and in constant use and a constant search for specific fleets is an ongoing frustration.

Suggestion ... there already is a "Patrol Function" that can be used in your software coding to separate these anti-pirate fleets from military fleets in the Outliner. I would prefer a separate check box noting this fleet is an anti-pirate fleet because there will be times when an anti-pirate fleet is not on patrol for various reasons. So, this second method of designating a fleet as "Anti-Pirate" is a more robust method but even if the simple method of using fleets with the "Patrol Function" chosen to use as the separator for Outliner purposes would be helpful.

Please, and thank you.
