Summary0003613: Warheads Auto-FRD
DescriptionWarheads shouldn't be eligible for Auto-FRD. If they do so, they may target an incorrect unit when placed in a friendly system.

In this example, there's an incoming wave of 0000605:0001000 cloaked ships. The warhead, after entering the system, auto-targets the starship, only inflicting 9% damage on that sole target. The intended plan was to use detectors to pick up the enemies, then follow with a warhead attack in the formation, reducing the wave to something more manageable.

Have you tried the global control toggle "Prevent Warhead FRD" that was added in 5.011?

I didn't notice it, despite being a recent change.

In the ctrl dialogue, it might be better re-ordering the "prevent warhead FRD" closer to the auto-frd options. This should make it more visible, and keeps the related items closer together.
