hello all, Whilst in combat against some baddies, I had my drones around my teammate repairing his shielding . In the rapid onset of combat , targeting, switching on weapons etcetc I killed one of the rats which left my collegue targeted. I briefly accidently fired on my mate as he was still targeted and CONCORD vapourised my omen
Is there a way to passively target a friend for my drones without being able to fire on him, OR , some way of stopping CONCORD destroying me? It was a very very expensive error, and IMHO , a bit harsh of the game engine to do.
cheers Olay Phtang

Hmmmmmm... A "passive-only" target would be nice. Could be done if you hold Shift while targetting, or something. Has the GC13 seal of approval.

alas no.
best to split your drones up inot diferent section: IE: repair, attack, and moniter your drones very closely.
Q: Were you in a gang ?
-I don't necessarily agree with everything I say.-

ok well if your friend and you are not in the same corp then thats what happens when you shot him or even if you repair him when hes flaged. to answer your ? yes there is a trick to help you. what you do is lock him tell your drones to attack but really if your useing shield or armor repair drones then once they fly at him you can unlock him and they will stay with him till he goes boom or you warp away.

Yes - we were in a gang together.
Branodn - thanks for that - to confirm - if I set my repair drones on him and then untarget him, the drones will still repair him?
thanks Olay
ps. do you think if I raised a petition to get a wee bit of money back would they would take pity on me, or just laugh me out of town?

you got it mate i know this from testing them when they first come out. used to use them in missions with friends till i went and become a pirate. but yes you lock the guy tell them to ingage him let them go to him and unlock him and they still work as long as hes and you are there. its useing the same princeaple as your combat drones you dont need to have target lock for them to attack lol

Once the repair dorones are on him, you can detarget him.
