I was doing more tests with the cloaking and auto targeting system only it didnĘt work. Well it did just not like is used to. The Auto Targeting system refused to target junk like Asteroids. Kind of made my decloak and target in under 10 seconds test a little hard to do. But I guess itĘs a good change.
Can anyone else confirm Auto Targeting modules have been changed?

I just gave it a try in a scorp with auto targetter and improved cloak.
Warped to a roid field with rats in it and imediatly cloaked. Flew within 7km of 2 of them and uncloaked. Just as soon as I uncloaked I hit the autotargetter but didn't get a lock for at least 10 seconds and the one I got was a return lock on only one rat and not both that were in range of the auto targetter.
I'd say the auto targetter is kinda nerfed for now...
at least it is if ya got a cloak device fitted as well.

If you have the auto lock back on when something locks you it does not work. I found my module only locked things I was not already trying to lock.
Can you try again with the auto lock back set to 0? Are you now locking asteroid or has that been changed?

Just did it again. Set the return to zero like you said. Didn't get anything from the auto targetter. I even sat there for about 3 minutes while 2 hijackers orbited and shot me and still nothing from the targetter. It didn't target any of the 20 odd roids that were within range either. Just like before, I turned the autotargetter on imediatly after uncloaking.
Looks like a bug to me because the auto targetter should start targetting on it's first cycle following sensor recalibration regardless of how soon you turn it on.
Auto targetter cycles every 5 seconds. Improved cloak recal time is 14 seconds with skills.
Assuming that the cloak is turned off and the auto targetter is turned on at the same time: The auto targetter should begin locking targets within range on it's 3rd cycle (15 seconds) and have targets painted in 20 seconds. (4th cycle) But it doesn't. It will cycle forever and never target a thing.
If ya wait till after the 14 seconds to turn on the auto targetter, everything seems to work fine. Still no roids tho. bug? --------------------------------------------- "Rang Rang" Something no one wants in eve. Pray that it never comes. They are locusts...

Or maybe the devs saw that thread you made pottsey and "fixed" the auto targeter.
------------- Most tired of thing atm: - Mods on the forum saying: "Please use the bug report page to submit bugs, the forum is not the place to post them." and then closing a topic. |

I can live with the Auto Targeter not working until after sensor recalibration. That still saves a lot of time for me. But de-cloaking and just cycling not targeting anything makes the module useless.
The not targeting asteroids is useful.

/me seeker is ****ed that pottsey has been penalised.

you can probably get the lock time down to 15 seconds with high skills.
You'll have to count to 14(or whatever your recal time is) and then hit that autotargetter or you'll just cycle forever.
Or just turn it off and on again.
My guess is that you need it for pvp so I guess every second counts.
Battleships locking inty's in 15 seconds sounds interesting tho. Especially if the inty pilot has inty lvl 5.
Assuming it's standing still and the pilot is afk or has his sound off and doesn't hear the uncloak...
still interesting...
