Hi. In the control settings, it is possible to set a hotkey to the Nearest/next external element. Is it possible to change the behavior of this button to the following: to highlight the external element CLOSEST to the cursor?
Hi I know it is not the same but you could try to (sorry if you have already done it):
- Cycle to the element type you want to destroy - Do the F thing to find all of its type, it should highlight them all - Hit F3, it wil focus/zoom on the currently selected target - Rotate/zoom out so you can view all the highlighted elements and choose the one you want by clicking on it - Hit F1 and shoot
all the above, with the exception of shooting can be done while paused.
Updates v6.0.0004, 18 Feb 2023: -Bug-fix: Targets was switching to a surface element even if you don't have the mod's mission that targets surface elements active. -Note: This version should work with 5.x base game.
Updates: v5.1.0313, 31 Oct 2022: -Bug-fix: Mission targets were not getting auto-targeted properly after destruction of one. -Bug-fix: Surface elements destroyed by another ship were changing the player's currently targeted surface element. -Bug-fix: Notification of surface element counts when not necessary.
Mod stopped working properly. Any conflicts known? I testest some right click stuff but removed it. I basically lose the entire selction after i kill one element. Otherwise it actually still works, but if i lose selection its unusable.
edit/ correction, it does still work on ships but on stations it is bugging out.
I will send it if you have no problems installing the necessary mods that are required to load this safe. Should not be too much but some VRO stuff and Ossian Riders basically. I dont think you need all the traders and other script mods.
Thanks for checking at all mate. And btw, after i changed sector i could use the function again. Hope you find the bug. Its a pain disabling stations and ships without your mod. Super helpfull that one without being OP and should be vanilla and you should be rewarded. o/ Haha Egosoft gamedesign often feels like traveling space with 80s computer that look like fancy 2010 Vista with the reliability of win2k...
Updates: v5.1.0305, 15 Sep 2022: -Bug-fix: Reprogrammed 90% of this mod. Hopefully, the bug that causes the mod to stop working after some time (then start working again later) is fixed.

Sorry for the delay. Got busy in RL and my month off modding became 2 months.
but "After destruction of a surface element that is mission target, the next nearest mission target will be auto-targeted" doesn't work.
