digitalmars.empire - Patrol?

I got my start playing on the Amiga version of Empire, which had a "patrol"
feature, where you could set the piece to automatically move between two
points with no user interaction until an enemy piece was detected.  I couldn't
find anything in the current Classic Empire like that, other than "move
randomly."  Is there a Patrol feature?  I loved it.

I have to second this.
Airplanes had Patrol "flight paths" (different from "Supply lines" where you
could
shuffle planes to the front)
I know Destroyers and Submarines could "Patrol"; not sure I ever tried it with
other ships...
