First i would like to ask if there is anyway to target people that need healing, rather than manually clicking on them.



If not, i think it would be a great idea to add. it would help out in battle, and in crowded med centers (like AH)



thoughts?

as far as I know you either need to manually click on them if they are not in your party, If they are in your party there are shortcuts to use to target them quickly


I would like to see a "Target next Player character"command in place as well as a "Target next object" to aid in looting all the dead NPC's and pulling backpacks out of walls

I'd love a way to target friendly folks ... or just any PC for that matter!!


Is this on our list of concerns yet? Orhas it been raised through other channels? I remember seeing someting about it butI don't remember where.

The easiest way is to be grouped with them, then you can just click on their tab in the group and you've got them targeted. I use this constantly in group combat: click on their tab, /follow them, then /healdamage when I'm close enough. Repeat with next group member in trouble.


Other than that, I don't know of any easy targeting methods.

I believe there is a key stroke that works too for groups, I believe it is ctrl-1,ctrl-2, ctrl-3 etc for each group member in order

The only way I heal in a cantina is to group with the entertainers. That's really the only way to heal the people who need it most since you can see which people in the group are low. And click on them from the group menu NOT from the screen. I heal as fast as the law allows me when I do this and for the highest potential xp per heal since I'm healing the person with the most damage to heal EVERY TIME.

I've been complaining (to myself at least) about this for ages. Trying to click on patients in a med center with 25+ people is a royal pain in the arse. Likewise if someone is running - it's like playing pin the tail on the moving donkey.

/beat_dead_horse


as anyone who has done any significant combat gaming knows, the targeting system in SWG is woefully inadequate. it has been brought to the attention of the devs but i know of nothing in the works.
