    Targeting and UI issue ( keyboard mouse)

    Issue is simple to replicate.
    1# Target someone with the mouse till skill row comes up.
    (up and down arrow slips though the different rows, side arrows move curser in skill bar.)
    2# Move target to someone else with the mouse.
    (up and down arrow now has no effect, side arrows switch targets.)

    Same thing happens if you right click and move camera, and pretty much anything that has to do with the mouse.

    It's a very annoying effect, when you suddenly have to use your mouse to manually switch skill rows in the middle of battle.

    Ok figured out that what the OP says IS true BUT that's only if you don't hit enter to I guess actually lock the target he/she then clicks on. So if I'm in the Adven guild in Grid I can select a PC and "lock" then activating the HUD/UI. I can move using the arrows as intended. If I then just change the selected and locked PC to another PC, the "cross-hairs" for the target say the new target is STILL in a locked format but it is not. If you go from one PC to the other and then just hit ur enter key Bloodrite, it will work as intended.

    Also tested just outside of Grid 34/28 to b exact and same issue. I just don't think you're actually locking the new target eventhough the target system still shows the tri cross-hairs rather than the just regular circular cross-hairs. Maybe that is a bug but otherwise it seems to work correctly UNLESS you have a problem that actually is on ur side.

    Hope this clears up the issue for you Bloodrite!

    It's a small work around Geesus but doesn't fix the issue, since you can also tab switch targets while at the 3 prong target state, then the up down keys work fine. If you rightclick hold to move the camera, not even touching the targeting. they stop working as well.

    Steps:
    1. Click NPC or PC till reticle changes to 3 prong, and skill palette showes up. with targeting type A up and down arrow will now switch between the 3 skill palettes. Left right arrow will move curser on the skill palette.

    2. Click another NPC or PC to move the 3 prong reticle to that person OR right click rotate camera

    3. up down arrows now stop working, and switch to changing targets instead of switching skill palette. Left right arrow now switches targets.


    Hope that's explained well enough Emdub. Else I'll try again ^^;;
