Thanks! Is there a way it's supposed to be done within the game's limits?

How do I get the crew to ID a target like in the O'Kane tutorial video?

ah, ok. thank you for your patience.

if you are using manual targeting, you are expected to to either know the target's dimensions or look them up in the targeting manual. then...you are expected to make the appropriate entries to the TDC/Is-Was/Uzo machine in preparation for firing a weapon.

old salts, myself included, use auto-targeting which does exactly that: when i lock onto a target, the distance, draft, etc are automatically entered into the TDC in order to fire the weapon.

does that help?

I guess it's a function of TMO, which I missed the first time through.
