Default Re: Point Defence and Maximum Weapons Range orders

SJ,
Your idea regarding the use of 0 damage in the intervening ranges does work.
I have watched several large battles and the AI ships will standoff whilst firing, whilst the PD does only fire when it can do damage.

Can you let Aaron, Richard etc know to include the alteration in the next patch - it vastly improves the AI's performance in combat (check it out for yourself).
I think I'll even run my next game using strategic rather than tactical combat mode for the first time in over 18 months!

Regards,

GE
