 Are point defense weapons still tied to "attack"?

It's been a while since I've checked on the progress of the mod, but one of the things that I've been curious about is the status of the point defense weapons in the game. Have point defense weapons been automated in their own little way and seperated from the commands of the main attack weaponry, making it so that I can tell a ship to directly attack another ship but the point defense weapons will still just focus on missiles and such, or are they still tied directly to the attack command and will focus on the enemy ship while ignoring any missiles flying at it? I never really enjoyed giving a generic "attack move" command in order to keep the point defense weapons funcitoning properly. |

Having operational PDS is the basis of this mod from its very creation. Due to a known limitation of the HW2 engine, the systems may sometimes be disabled and focus on the primary target only if you issue a click-on-target attack. That nevers happens if you issue attack orders by move-attack and or bandboxing. Bandboxing is not a general command and will focus all primary weapon systems on the chosen target(s). |
