Instead of discharging the energy of the currently firing PD slot the
number of the target of top ten target list (TTTL) which is currently
under fire by your PD is taken and then this PD slot is discharged.

Example

PD slot w=1 shall fire.
Then browse with i=1 to 10 to the possible targets of the TTTL and
search for wings.
For i=4 a wing found and the PD fires. But then PD slot i=4 is
discharged and not slot w=1.

If all targets of the TTTL are wings in range then the first PD - a MM
for example - can fire on the wings and discharges the rest of the PD bank.

So against many micro wings only one MM or TL on slot 1 works like ten
of them. Good to know if one wants to save money...

Then massive ships are intended to get a PD bonus against wings. There
are there stages for mass=690,1200 and 1800 at which a ship should get
an additional chance to hit the target. But there is only a bonus for
690. And in addition this is under presence of the former mentioned bug
a disadvantage as then the inner loop which browses through the TTTL
will be left.

Tim is informed.
