Default Re: Ship Designs

BTW, this is mentioned in the Newbie FAQ:

2.3.1 You need to add weapons to a ship in the order you want them to fire in combat. This is most applicable to Strategic Combat. You can manually select weapons to fire in Tactical Combat.

As stated this applies to Strategic combat for ships with more than 1 kind of weapon. Also, even though PDC are automatic, I remember a bug that might still be around. Unless it got fixed, if you manually fired PDC before your weapons, you it would take up 1 "multiplex tracking" channel; i.e. you would lose 1 of your "multiplex tracking" chances to fire. This would not happen if you fired them Last.
