Man this is probably the single most annoying thing in the game next to trade channel spam... please get rid of the effect you get when you have more than one pirate targeted and the game switches your target to another pirate seemingly at random so you can't group your lasers without resetting them like 4 times.. THANK YOU

Congratulation, you are the 100th person to post about this issue. You win a brand new bug for you to cope with!!
Ok, seriously it sure is annoying and this is a very good time to get it fixed. The recent changes to combat made it abit harder going up against pirates to emphasize group hunting. But with a bug like this all sorts of devices are made useless, eg. the shield/energy transfers.

I can say to this only I TOTALLY AGREE!
A option to disable ALL automatic switching would be very appreciated.

good to see i am not the only one..
and I agree.. expecially now when you are trying to take out a group of pirates and every shot counts.. you HAVE to concentrate fire to succeed but it is a royal PIMA when every time you try to consolidate lasers it switches on ya :P
ok nuff *****in i am sure the dev's know about this and let us hope they are working on a solution

Storeslem.
I asked Hippey the same question in another post. Why do you target containers? You blew up your ace loot because you had it targeted?
Fly over to it and pick it up.. No?
And targeting your own drones? I have to be missing something here unless you were sheild transfering or such to your drone I guess.
If I'm in the dark here, please someone switch on the light for me.

There are several reasons to target containers. One is to clean up(I always do this, btw) and another is to use cargo scanners to see which you want to loot and which you just want to get rid of.

@Pyroe:
Because we clean our mess. I.e. I target 4 of my containers, and I destroy every container after I'm done with it. Thanks to target autoswitching, I sometimes destroy the wrong ones. This is minor issues, but:
It's outstandingly annoying during normal fight. You want to shoot one target, then you suddenly shoot 2, or 1 but different, or 3. And you can't event tell which gun is firing at which target.

Yeah. kind of sucks when your like me and you target the pirate loot containers. I go to activate a weapon on a pirate and at the very last second it switches to the container. Well it sucks.
It's almost like someone at CCP is sitting there selecting another target laughing it up.
I've gotten into the habbit of rapidly selecting a target while activating my weapons.
EDIT: Yeah.. what he said.

Pyroe: mostly what them others said. I target crates so I can blow them up after I am done with them, both so it look cleaner and so that I don't check the same crates over and over again.
As for the drones, accidents happen.

Yes please fix this!
I almost lost a ship just now while taking on 3 tough pirates, I had one almost dead but every single time I targeted it and activated a gun, the target was switching to a full health pirate. I'm going to practice using the F keys to activate my guns and see if that helps.

VERY nasty now that range matters so much. Say I've got an angel impaler at 3km. I hit F3 and F4 to open up with autocannons. Only as I hit them the bloody idiot AI decides no you don't want to target that impaler at 3k with AC, you want to target the predator at 18km with AC. And then as I go to shoot my artillery at the Predator at 18km the #(&*%! POS will switch back to the Impaler. HORRID, STUPID, IDIOTIC, MORONIC, AI for combat. Whoever put that in should be taken out and flogged with a rubber hose!

I've just bug reported this again as I'm sick and tired of selecting a pirate who is right next to me and then autoswitching to a pirate who if over 40km away... then my nice volley fire wastes cap and my lure tactics fail as I dont have enough cap to kill the one who is near me.
I think this bug should be classed as "dangerous" because it interferes with the safety of your ship.
(edit)
I'm giving up combat until this is fixed... it's way too dangerous...

Yeah, this one wants to get bumped up, not only here, but on the Dev's priority list ;)
Please try and fix this one soon, this one is a ship loser, a container loser and possibly a sec rating loser.

"Yes. Please fix it. This is the single most annoying thing about the game currently."
Actually, it's the second most.
The MOST annoying thing is not being able to seel anything GOOD on the "open market". Let us put crap newb stuff on the market instead of the stuff that actually sells like the pirate loot stuff. Good idea CCP.
