Consivering the way things are going, I really hate to say something
like this, BUT...

     When I do the squadron move concept, I plot for the ship nearest
the enemy fleet an move all others in the squadron so that they end 
within 3 inches of the plotted ship and not nearer to the enemy.
(Another option is to move the ploted ship and move in a formation,
like 'line astern'.)   Just don't worry if the movement isn't quite
right, everything works out in the end
.
Bye for now,
