Fighter weapons should be kept short ranged. Making the PDC not auto fire will make them at least get a chance to fire before being slaughtered.
That would be really good for a mod. That's pretty much the exact reason we pushed for the addition of the fighter and seeker as separate target items. It wasn't possoble originally. But of course it would be very bad to implement somehting like that into the stock files, so it's not so good for what we are trying to do here.
