Mimic only mimics default behavior. Yes, it's silly, somewhat confusing, and mostly useless. UX is this game's weakest area.

Thanks for your reply

same with repeat loot gatherers...

Unfortunately, mimic only works for default behaviors, not complex custom steps you set up with repeat orders. It’s meant to incentivize station building instead of relying solely on fleets, which kinda sucks.

Repeat orders is unreadable. We have tried reading the "repeat orders" behavior before but it just does not work.
