Re: Emissive armour - what is it used for?
Guys, when the group of fighters fire on a ship the damage is cumulative. However, AI is NOT aware of that, so when he is supposed to fire on a ship with emissive armor he doesn't fire because he 'thinks' that he can't do any damage while in reality he could. This is why, if you turn on auto-combat, the fighters don't fire (auto-combat is controlled by AI).
I hope this explains something.
I remember somebody made a post about this cumulative damage for fighters and missiles saying that is should be calculated one by one instead of the whole group at once, and I agree completely.
