Autofire?

Brand newbie in the house. Is it correct to state that with autofire enabled in battle, it is not required to select the fully charged weapon (1,2) when click targeting the enemy system to inflict damage :?:

You still need to aim the weapons at a target when starting a battle. It's just that with autofire enabled, they won't lose the target after firing.

I highly recommend however you don't keep autofire on because part of FTL is picking and choosing your target system carefully. If you only need one weapon to keep hammering on a system, I recommend selecting the weapon and holding down "ctrl" and targeting the required room. That gun will keep firing on that room unless you tell it otherwise.
