I'm making a plug that has several ships configured for escort. however the ai part has really confused me. for example, i equipped a ship with rail guns, but it wont use them. does it have to do with government ids? could someone explain the AI to me? thanks.

Railguns are long range. It is possible that a ship needs to prefer standoff attacks to use them, but I'm not sure.

Often I have had this problem. like mrxak said, it is usually becuase of the range of the weapon. Other problems howeveer, are that there are other weapons on that ship too, and so does no allways use the particular weapon you intend for it to primarily use, or the AI ship type was set to something like wimpy trade, whereas it rarely ever fires. My wimpy trader I accidently created had 300 nanites, tons of FPT, and disabling IR missiles. The ship was a polaris Arachnid. When it was fired at, it simply ran off, and went into hyperspace. Check these, then try again.
