bunkers and hardpoints stop shooting at the enemy when there is artillery
fire incoming.[[BR]]
this is especially visible when there are lots of defenses and far away
ripple rockets.[[BR]]
one single unit enters the sight range of the defenses, start shooting and
suddenly stop, waiting for the rockets to come by.[[BR]]
in the meanwhile the enemy unit can go around undisturbed and evade the
incoming rockets.[[BR]]
that is good for "ammo saving" when there are lots of units incoming, but
very bad when there are only few.[[BR]]
I suggest to introduce some weighing of the fire, based on the expected HP
of the target, the likeness to hit and the time necessary to reload.[[BR]]
(I mean: a gauss cannon hardpoint will be unlikely to shoot at a single
heavy machine gun wheeled bug, while a nearby assault gun hardpoint would
keep fire open while waiting for the rockets to come)
