Target Subsystems

I need a bit of help with Targeting Subsystems.

How do you NOT target a subsystem once you have done so???

I would have thought U (remapped in my case to B) would cycle thru all subsystems and back to the whole ship but for me it only cycles thru the subsystems and I can't get back to targetng the whole ship.
There was only the Vonari C in the vicinity so couldn't try changing targets.
Trying MDTS off/on didn't help.

re-target the current target-ship :-)

Yup, give that a shot. Toggle the kybd 'T' key to schmooze thru the available/listed ships, lest you have this one remapped as well. That should give you back the 'normal' hit box for a targeted ship.

But I said there were no other ships around so I can't switch targets in that case. And in that instance shouldn't toggling MDTS do the same thing?

Try going to aft view (default End key) or pressing H to cycle your HUD.

To de-select a target press the default "G" key. That switches off the target MFD on the bottom right. Press it again and you can re-select your target, clearing the sub-system targeting.

The G key didn't work for me but the default T key did work ... tested with only one ship (beside mine) in the sector.

You're quite right Marvin. My memory not serving me too well on that one

Yes, Vice told me, retargeting works, R, T, O, P, or Mouse select.
