Special Properties

Source Starfinder Core Rulebook pg. 304
Some weapons have special properties, as noted on the starship weapon tables. These special properties and how they affect starship combat are described here.

Automated

Source Starship Operations Manual pg. 13
A weapon with this special property can aim and fire autonomously following its programmed protocols. Unless manually operated by a gunner or instructed not to attack, the weapon fires every round during the gunnery phase, using the shoot crew action with a total gunnery bonus equal to the starship’s tier (minimum +0). It always fires at the closest enemy starship in range; if more than one enemy vessel is equally close, the weapon determines its target among these options at random. Weapons with the mine special property can’t also have the automated special property.
