Point Defence and Maximum Weapons Range orders

[PvK]

It's just that the "Target seekers targeted on..." toggle orders in ship strategies are often misunderstood. To get what you want, set these to NO. Doing this does NOT stop the ship from firing PD at seekers (regardless of whether they are targetted on the ship in question, or not).

If you set these to YES, then the ship will actually maneuver itself to hunt and destroy enemy seekers.

So, most often you want to set these to NO with strategies that are designed to avoid contact, or to stand off at long range.
