Many times I run into the problem of not knowing what my AI is targeting and end just guessing where it's targeting. With such a quality of life feature I and many others wouldn't have to guess such things anymore. :>

#

It could also show you the priority of a target and the areas of the target so you can make sure it's set up correctly instead of doing it through trial and error.

edgy lark
#

doesn't the AI detection options have this already

It should be as easy as pressing the display movement button

ai targets clusters or hot blocks, you can't tell it to aim at weapons

#

target prioritization affects what vehicle becomes the primary target, and you can see the score of each vehicle in play by pressing q on the target prio card while enemies are present

#

what blocks a vehicle target are determined by the aimpoint card, and that targets clusters (takes 10 random blocks and selects one in the middle of them all) or hot blocks (blocks that have a temperature stat, like custom jet engines, steam boilers and heat decoys)

#

i think you might've confused the two since target prio has nothing to do with aimpoint

#

and you can't tell the ai to prioritize certain parts of an enemy outside of aiming at clusters of blocks or hot blocks

#

you can also make your weapons shoot at the enemy center of mass using breadboard aiming I suppose

hot blaze
#

that's exactly what it does... it determines which enemy the ai fights

#

The target prioritization can give a vehicle a bias in its aim

#

I’ve seen this first hand and all of my vehicles make use of this

#

no

hot blaze
#

no???

trail shore
#

that is not how the ai works

hot blaze
#

this is not a thing

trail shore
#

target prioritization has 0 affect on aimpoints

hot blaze
#

yeah, aimpoint is what ai shoots at, prio is who

#

Try setting your target prioritization card to max on all weapons and firepower

hot blaze
#

like on an anti air mainframe you'd set the prio to -0.1 blocks and 1 speed to shoot at small flying things

#

Trust me, it works

trail shore
#

it will do nothing to where the target aims

hot blaze
hot blaze
#

cause that's what target pro does

#

determines which enemy you fight

trail shore
#

anyway i think i saw somewhere a way to look at the aimpoint???
at least i saw someone with an outline of the block being targeted, probably just schizophrenia

#

When I get up later I’ll make a video demonstrating this phenomenon

hot blaze
#

no need because we know that's not how the game works

#

you're either using clusters and shooting at large weapons systems with lots of blocks, or its confirmation bias

trail shore
#

or its random chance

#

I swear on my combined 7,000+ hours of playing the game, I’m telling the truth here

hot blaze
#

FTD schizophrenia takes many forms...

#

Oh my god, why are y’all so against this? You can see it for yourselves if you just try it

hot blaze
#

just ask Sean next time he's online if target prio has anything to do with aimpoint
