Thread: Targetting Subsystems Bug

There seems to be a problem when you target subsystems over long distances or in large battles. After targeting the engines or some other subsystem the computer will forget and that subsystem will disappear, after pouring enough fire into the target you'll realize that something is wrong and check the target and see that the substem has vanished. This doesn't happen all the time but enough that you must check the target box every few min to make sure the subsystem hasn't untargeted.

It usually happens with higher tier targets that require a lot of firepower to bring down while his squad mates are attacking you. I think it has something to do with other ships attacking you while u are attacking their leader. Not sure why, but it would really help to fix this. Subsystems need to stay targetted.

Update-

This problem isn't that bad in lower levels but when you are battling it out against a tier 4 enemy and you desperatly need to disable his ship and see that this bug has taken the engine selection off and you've wasted valuable seconds blasting away his armor, it's infuriating.

PLEASE FIX THIS. When you target sub systems, they should stay, not vanish. I don't want to repeatedly reselect and check to make sure the comptuer didn't just drop the selection.
