Auto Pilot Question

from Stardock Forums
Total bonehead question here that I'm too lazy to go digging through all the documentation to find the answer to...

When I have ALL of my ships on Autopilot (right clicking on a destination) then when my turn rolls around pushing the Tab button won't cycle through the ships (it just stays on one) and if I push the end turn button all my ships will just sit there and not move towards their destination. The only way around this I have found is to take that first ship (or I usually leave one ship off autopilot just for this purpose) and cancel its orders by clicking on it and then clicking on its destination again. This starts a chain reaction in which all of the ships execute their autopilot orders and actually move... But doing it every turn is really time intensive and click happy which I hate. So my question is... is there some button or hot key that I can push that will make all of my ships execute their autopilot orders?

Thanks in advance...

Nope, just hit Turn and they do it. It was so you change your ships' orders before it got to move.

To further clarify and to answer my own question...

There is an option in the menu for "End Turn Skips all moves remaining" (or something like that). If this is ON then hitting end turn will not move any of your ships (if they are all on Autopilot). So you should probably set this to OFF if you are having problems with this. ON was the default value for me...
