[REQ] Generic Target ID

I think the ability to lock a target is to do with if your crew is "aware" of a ship or not, as opposed to the range it's at, at least it seems that way from what I've experienced so far.

Sometimes you can lock a Ship that's 12000m away if your watch crew has seen it, whereas sometimes if you're submerged and see a Ship in the scope you can't lock onto it until it's about 3000m away if the crew aren't "aware."

EDIT: Thanks, Heretic. I'll have a look through the text files and see if I can find it, the problem itself is only in when you're talking to the Weapons Officer and it shows the text (which is supposed to be what you are telling the Weapons Officer) saying you can see an unknown whatever, when the crew call out a spotted ship etc it just seems to say "visual contact", as opposed to what type, which is good.
