The Fleet Composition window will give you some extra information on your fleet members. Only people in command positions have access to this screen and you can only see your subordinates. This means a Squad Commander will only see his squad, a Wing Commander his wing and the Fleet Commander and the Fleet Boss will see the entire fleet.

To use the watch list for warp purposes, right click on the name in the watch list, and you can select on of two options:
 
* {{co|wheat|Warp to}}: Warps you to 0 in the last known position of the ship the person is flying - be sure to ''never'' warp to 0 to a scout, as this will uncloak them if they are cloaked)
* {{co|wheat|Warp to X km}}: Allows you to select the distance (10km being the shortest you should ever warp to a cloaked scout).
 
When pilots on your watch list are on grid with you and are not cloaked, you will see three bars to the right of their names.  The first bar is the health of their ships' shields.  The second bar shows armor health, and the third bar shows structure health.  If you do not see these bars, the pilot is either off grid from you or cloaked.
