They have no tactical advantage to targeting. in a 3/10 plex someone was in a shuttle targeting me in my cruiser. his only advantage would be to gain my crappy t1 loot that i would have dropped upon concord intervention. what reason does a vehicle specifically for rapid travel have to even need a target lock further than a t1 frigate? looking into it it has a 50k lock distance. please hit shutte with a nerf bat and get rid of this annoyance.

Incorrect use of a ship if you ever saw one. I am looking for history as to why they can target. everything in the game has a history. dont think fighters are that old, and anyone needing to protect anything so bad they need fighters for it is probably using a much better tank than a shuttle

probably because the game code says all ships can target by default and ccp didnt feel the need to write any new code for shuttles to disable that

The way I read this post is "I shot someone's shuttle by accident and got CONCORDED and he picked up my loot."

If I fly a shuttle and have fighters assigned to me...do I still get the killmail if the fighters get the kill?
If so....wow a whole new world opens up in shuttle warfare.

IIRC, the carrier pilot gets the mail if you don't do anything to your target.

Turn off auto-target, so you don't target back if something targets you?

You can even assign them to pods ...
It's a pretty much standard use after the introduction of Carriers (t1 frig and shuttle fighter-bombing) _______

You don't.. A Carrier Pilot assigns them to you and they act like drones. ------------------------------------- Proud member of G Guild! |

I can think of a few game mechanics that work and are not 'correct'.

Pods can't lock feasibly in combat. Never thought of shuttles though
T1 frig spam is common of course (usually minmatar frigs for speed/tackle, griffins for ECM grief or punishers for nos/tank)

Read closer... Harassment. Im sure he was hoping i would target and fire upon him but i kept breaking my locks to him and continuing the fight till he eventually left. The part about him picking my crappy T1 loot was an assumption. Just a game mechanic that could use a swing of the nerf bat. and curiosity as to the history of way shuttles lock targets.

Its been mentioned already in this thread.
"Turn Autolock off".
I can't think of a reason why someone would want it switched on.
