Anything about this game being considered 'spoilers' is especially stupid/funny because the game has literally been out for over a year. It's a tacit admission that no-one has even been able to play the drat thing for very long. Even the most stringent "NO SPOILERS" threads here tend to drop that long before a year has passed.

I could understand story stuff maaaybe; but this game doesn't have a campaign or story mode, and there's no narrative or revelations built into the regular maps. What's there to even spoil? Background info?

The silliest part is considering game mechanics and formulae spoiler material. "Players should NOT know exactly how the game works. Not in this genre!"

Is there some kind of button or command that lets my ships face a given target while also moving (either sots)? I'd use the frontal shield techs a lot more if so. This command probably doesn't exist but it should.

E: I just realized it kinda works this way normally, disregard.

vvv I was thinking more of just having my ships strafe just a bit or change formations. Like, I need to pull this damaged ship back to retreat it but keep your shield pointed thattaway! Not going full speed of course.

Ah cool that's great. Still being able to issue right clicks would be ideal, but that sounds like a good work-around.

Does the morale boost from money breakpoints still exist? (i.e. 1,5,15 million like sots 1)
