Currently, tagging is a good idea that was poorly implemented. This could work wonders for target calling in fleet battles, its just that tagging needs to happen faster.
At the moment, you have to go into the overview, find the target, right click, find the tag menu, go into the a-b or 0-9 menu and select a option. Then it will show the tag on ther overview to you and your gang mates.
Now, the problems with this are simple:
A) Your gang mates actualy have to be there for the tags to get implemented on their overview. If they warp in, they don't have the current tags and will only get new ones updated to the overview.
B) During the right click proccess, if the person you have selected in the overview moves posistion and another person takes that slot, that person is then tagged, which defeats the point. It takes too long basically.
Proposal
1) Make it so that if you warp in, your overview automatically updates to the current gang tags
2) Make assigning tags short-cut assign-able, IE: ctr+1, ctr+2, ctr+a (in fact make more theys keyboard assignable).
That way, you make it viable to order the overview by tag in fleet battles and it's easy to see who is primary and who is secondary, etc.

I'll hazard a guess that gang mechanic overhauls will adress this in some way.
Other then that, yeah, ctrl+t+1-9 would be nice as shortcut./

Any time spend on additional functionallity of the overview is uselessly spent time.
That thing is broken half of the time since a couple of so called bugfixes and improvements ago.

The overview has been partially broken since it was implemented

Yes, but it worked pretty good for a long time until it was 'fixed'.

shortcut keys would be great, ontop of that it could be taken further so targets are made more visible by flashing colours on the overview or something like that - maybe 1st 3 targets are coloured in a specific order, if 1 target leaves then next target in order gets that ones colour, just a thought
Also all gang members need to be able to assign tags or alternatibly the gang leader needs to be able to select who can do this....

Flashing colours seems like to much.
1, 2, 3 for primary, A, B, C is primary for jammers, etc

Or simply have tagged targets at the top, or in a specific area of the overview?
I very much like the ctrl+t+1-9 idea.

Having them at the top you can already do just by clicking on the Tag column in the overview, it will then re arrange them according to Tag order.
The Keyboard shortcut i would like to see (to MANY other functions as well, orbit? Approach? there's lots of others that could use them)
Also What Id really want to see, is fix it so the Tag doesnĘt require a gang to work. Why not enable it so we can tag targets alone. Why? It would be wonderful if all use Drone users could tag targets, and our drones attacked those targets according to Tag order! Id be nice if they were always running around in chaos each attacking their own target if you didnĘt want them do.

Well, with the Kali gang upgrades already in the pipe, getting any current gang mechanics changed is a long shot.
Gangs and escrow will stay the same until the combat management/contracts come out.
No point in updating code that's getting replaced.
Good idea tho'

Check the date on the first post in this thread.  We might even be lucky.
