Target closest enemy

[Raf von Thorn]

This is serious. Anyone using the "select biggest threat" key knows what im talking about.

Im in the middle of conflict zone, 3 ships are shoting me, this python is right in my face. I kill a cobra, select the "biggest threat"... and the game decides that my biggest problem is that proximity mine 8 km away. WHY? Target the closest enemy! Please change that, devs!

Use the target ahead button?
I use target ahead, target most threat and cycle through ships and bind keys to each.

You don't know in a conflict zone with 15 hostiles which one is the nearest

Turns out I'm not using that function - I use "Toggle Next Hostile" instead.

That function only picks Ships, usually from near to far.

I always thought pressing H targetted the biggest current threat, ie the ship currently firing at me or that last fired at me etc, hass annoyed me a few times when pressing this to have my target suddenly be a proximty mine.

It is indeed a problem, I second them fixing this... or making mines truly the next biggest threat above that Anaconda bearing down on you and his 50 friends... something like "ignore this mine and everything in 10KM is going to be incinerated"
