Manual TDC follow unlock?

Vorkapitan · 05-22-11, 03:42 AM

Hi Mates,

Simple question..When I lock a ship in manual mode and click the "follow" Icon, everything works ok. No when I want to track a different ship, I unclick the "follow" button and lock on to the new ship. But when I click on the "follow" icon it reverts back to the 1st ship.

How can I get the "follow" to track the 2nd ship now?

First you make unlock the ship that you locked... you must to have the XO dialog like: 1-turn TDC off and 2 - Nevermind.
After you will have like this you click on do not follow selected ship... after that you go and lock another ship and choose to follow that ship

As I dont have the xo box poping up, I just lock on, lock off to new target several times before using follow target. This normally works for me.

Normally it is happen if you just go and lock the next target without unlocking the first one
