Default Ship Designs

Does the order in which you add weapons (or weapon-like components) to a design affect the order in which the comps are used? First-added/First-Used, First-added/Last-used, etc...

Yes it does and it can make or break a ship design.

Edit: Forgot to say that it is first added first used.

A little clarification please...

So to design a aggressive ship I should have the weapons placed before everything else or just put the weapons I want to fire first added to the ship design.

i.e. I want the DUC to fire before the PDC so I should add it to the design first.

Does it matter where the bridge, etc. is added?

All these little nuances I keep learning...

They're referring more to adding, say, shield depleters before regular weapons.

PDC is a special case, it fires by itself It is only order of weapons that matter, other components can be spread to your liking.
