targeting a ship in a fight becomes macro again, always engines

Post by KRM398 »

Yes, did some flying on the 1.20 this morning got a ship with some stuff on it...then when I started slowly bringing down its hull...the macro appeared telling me about its engine. I moved my targeting off it and back on, same macro..only way out to target it with the mouse..I am using a joystick I got working pretty well for now. Then the mouse can make it read as a ship again, but fire a few shots...engine macro. And targeting drones is just stupid, sometime it works sometimes it doesn't. Had a wing of drones come off a Teranis and attack me, killed one and turned to shoot again..could see them and even saw one shooting at me but no targeting box, then as they ran past and I turned again, they were back, a real pain. :wink:

and while we're on the subject of targeting. Just did a job where I completed the task and then after, was attacked by a warden Carrier, decided either had to leave my price, a rehanas full of cargo..(no JD) again. or fight, decided, why not, I'll board it. got a good crew...no you wont either....took out the engines and 2 rear guns making a dead spot, clicked the ship for boarding start...no...cant target this ship. Went around getting hit a dozen times shooting at other stuff then saw the name on targeting again...ran to the back to board...no..can't click and get boarding instructions...Did this 4 times up down around even hid between the engines and was nose tight to the hull..no boarding no targeting, sometimes the info comes up in the corner box, but still not allowed to board, no info sheet no boarding, and half the drones she dropped couldn't be targeted either. Its no fun seeing a stream of bullets coming at you from some invisible dot out there. :cry:

Decided to use this as a bug report list, since every time I play I find new ones, here's the special of today...now have 4 ships sitting around with no JD after getting boarded. The game allows us to hack the jd...but boarding requires its destroyed or they wont launch. So...even destroyed them and then used the repair laser mod to give the engineer (enemy engie) a fresh start on repairs...didn't work...nothing did, every turret on board will repair, at least one engine will repair, the hull goes back up to 100% with the repair beam on an enemy ship...(getting desperate) and no, the jd doesn't get repaired.

Now have 4 ships including a light sol, (was a Warden Carrier until I capped it) and a teranis sitting around waiting on a fix for this, or even a way to move cargo and drones from one to the other, the teranis is loaded with drones the sol has 8..doesn't seem right there but hey. So now decided better take some profit while I have the chance have to pay for dead marines and repairs after all. Went back to de fre and ran to the shipyard there....walked in and asked to sell ships need rid of 4, will more than supply me with cash for a while. NO>>>>ship master has no option to buy ships, none only see ship list and ask for her information and directions. Not a option at all, none not even blanked out.Have after taking a few deep breaths and slowly laying down my remote keyboard while its still in one piece...to not play for a while. It makes no sense since I cant fly the damned things, cant order them well enough to use them, they don't or rarely defend themselves and now cant sell them. Thats it for now, got other games that work so I'll check back some other time. :cry:
