Subject says it all. I shouldn't have to bump my target to get my pets to start attacking.

-1

I want to nuke you while you try to ram me.

You already have a chance to nuke me because the furies will break off their attack if i drift far enough away.

+1

+1 only if capships and all their turrets get this aswell

Technically this suggestion breaks down as:

1. Add an "Attack player's target" command to the mission editor
2. Update the mission for the furies to incorporate that command

I'm a fan of both parts, but the first bit makes sense even if the second is deemed inappropriate.
