AI is not great at fire control with it's weapons groups

It would be cool if the AI turned off the least flux efficient weapons against shields first instead of turning off the highest cost weapon group when at high flux. Currently, the AI turns of it's primary standoff armament when losing on flux quite often, as a lot of the time it's Kinetic weapons will be the most flux expensive weapon group.

This would also allow the AI to better pilot lodouts which use non-missile secondary weapons, like Mining Blasters.

I've also found AI is too quick to turn off essential weapon groups in general, or get into a state where it switches weapons off and on repeatedly and becomes inefficient (most easily seen on the Apogee with Plasma Cannon, Locust SRM, 2 Pulse Lasers, 2 Burst PD).
