2.4.2.03. Point Defense. Example: (Point-Defense Cannons I-V). Automatically fire at seekers, fighters, satellites, and drones when in weapon range.(Stone Mill,Capnq)

PDC's do NOT fire automatically at drones, nor do they automatically fire at satellites. I do know that they can be manually fired on satellite Groups. I don't remember if they can target drones, though. Somebody will have to check.

PDC's firing at drones is supposed to have been fixed in Patch 2:

Version 1.75:

8. Fixed - Point-Defense will now fire automatically on moving drones.

As for PDC's firing at satellites, ISTR my PDC's automatically firing at satellites when my ships moved, but not when sitting still. And seekers/fighters/drones are a higher targetting priority for PDCs anyway...
