    dev1035 New Targeting Mode Widget Problem

    Ok, so the arrow keys do way too much stuff. I am having major problems with using the arrow keys to scroll my ability bar and instead of doing so it randomly starts scrolling through the different targeting modes. I don't know about you guys but if I am on ability bar 2 and need to get to ability bar 1 for a desperatly needed cure and can't because all of a sudden my arrow keys are changing my target mode I think thats a HUGE problem. Why can't I make any key of my keyboard do anything I want them to do, problem solved. I have over a hundred keys and I see no reason for any one key to have more than one purpose. I want my arrow keys OR preferably any key I want, to scroll the ability bar. I can solve the problem if I use autotarget lock but then when I cure I can't target party members, once again that doesn't work, because CON aoe sucks so bad. Is anyone else having this problem? Before the targeting widget was implemented I still had problems with my ability bar going inactive in the middle of the fight so when I hit the arrow keys nothing happens at all unless I hit enter first. So it has never been perfect but now it's terrible. Also we need the option to force the ability bar to stay on screen.

    Oh my god, it's terribly annoying. This is the worst feature by far that I've experienced while playing. I am constantly changing my target settings from Enemy or All to Friendly or Party mid-battle.

    MID-BATTLE!

    It's killed me and my party multiple times. I am confidently and regrettably stating that this is the biggest problem I've experienced since I've started and I experience it constantly. Someone else may not think that is their biggest issue, but it certainly is mine. I'm with you.

    agreed this system is a pain in the ass to work with. WTB better system or separate ui for mouse and keyboard... wtf is with target lock anyway... why is that necessary i just dont see it, just one more time you need to hit enter or cancel...
