yes you
can attach your escort(s) to the formation.
just left click on your ship and drag the icon / line until it touches the formation.
it should now look like a shield. click again and you hear "aye aye sir".
you are now "in formation" with the merchies or battlegroup
set time comp to 2048 at will ... you will have to change course in order to change own ship speed at this point or you will get "sir we are in formation"
the f key allows you to adjust placement of individual ship in your squadron
i think its the g key that allows you to turn your entire squad with the leadships rudder moves (not draw it on the map)
also , control + space,
to manually fire your DD's gun at the locked target
WHILE YOU ARE AT ANOTHER STATION.
very useful when uboat #2 thinks he can get cute on the surface
because you are too busy tracking submerged uboat # 1 in sonar
