Problem with Auto Targeting System

Hi!

I have an Auto targeting System in one of my high slots (Vexor Navy Issue).
Unfortunately, after activating, the module neither autotargets any (rat) ship in range, nor does it give me the +2 target locks. It cycles, but does not work as I intended...
Skill requirements are met, I can normally activate it, but it has no effect.

What am I missing out?

Thanx!

Have you turned it off then on again? File a bug report, thank you for calling IT.

"Targets any hostile ship within range on activation. Grants a +2 bonus to ship´s max targets when online."

It gives you 2 more than the ship would normally be capable of but you need the skills to target the total amount of ships I.e. ship-4, auto tatrget-2,
You need to have your target management high enough to handle 6 targets.
Now get outa here before the trolls find you.

Fixed.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Yeah the skills needed is overlooked I think. You could make a ship with 33 targets as max, but still you could never target more than 12 with maxed skills.

Also description is misleading. It autotargets ships that agress against you. The discription makes it seems like you land, turn it on and it starts targetting.

It now seems to work exactly like drones on aggressive and FoF missiles.

Older version seemed to work differently and it was NOT a good thing. Especially in highsec.

It only targets things that have targeted you, and it does so without lock time, but at the end of every cycle.
