The Akkan Battlecruiser is not getting into range to fire its PD autocannons with the recent patch.
Colonize ability range does not match circle range.
PD autocannon when in range does not focus the same target as Medium autocannons even if given a manual target.
PD prioritizes missiles and strikecraft. Were they firing on those instead?
It did do that when something was in range but this is easily replicated in initial map start. Go to first plant with neutrals. When it engages it always engages at max range the PD gun won’t fire even after ship fully rotated. If you move the ship closer the PD fires.
Gotcha, that is by design. The Dunov is considered a support ship so we set the combat distance to be determined by its bigger weapons. This keeps it as far away from the target as possible while still doing a reasonable amount of dmg (low armor pen, low dmg PD shouldn't contribute much). PD in this case is really just to keep it alive if there is a missile or strikecraft attack to the rear. We may need to rebalance its PD if is doing a lot of dmg but we haven't focused much on balance yet.
As you discovered you can override the default behavior by moving the ship closer.
