#Bot command for only using radiation weapons

Hoping it is a very simple thing to implement something like this, for me at least it would be a decent quality of life improvement when trying to capture wild bots while still allowing my own bots to be able to have multiple weapons with different damage types

I believe this was raised before..

I think as it stands, bots and drones with radiation weapons use them preferentially when enemies are within a hit or two of death, but it's not super consistent
Capture Enemies would be a neat order

I can't seem to find the previous thread but weapon selection I believe is fairly deeply optimized.

Optimized.... I still need to dock my slaves and unequip non rad weapons if i want to capture stuff. Else the big chunk is still destroyed before i can capture them.

Is perhaps a bigger delay in exploding possible if lets say 30% if the damage has been radiation. So you have more time to capture if also other damage is been used in the kill?

Wild Bots are very frustrating to design both as AI and as wild bots and we re currently discussing how to improve them or outright depreciate them as part of a Fleet Commander rework.

We have even talked about removing rad state and making AI just capturable at low health akin to Pokemon if we kept them around.

Capturing itself probably won't go away no matter what but this will be focused likely after the Engi revamp
