Hey, I have a simple suggestion for a new shortcut that would make the lives of all people who lock regurarly 6+ targets a lot easier.

Eve needs a new Combat shortcut. One that let us cycle between locked targets via a button.

There should one shortcut to cycle to the left, and one to the right (not to have to cycle through all of them if you want to go 1 back)



Who is this for? Everyone who mines,hacks,does pve, does LOGI, does PVP in big fleets.
Spread webs, points, mining lazors, micromanage fighters/drones, micromanage jamming. Right now if you are in logi ship, with 4 repaires and 1 cap rep + some other remote module, and you need to manage them cosntantly via clicks and the F buttons, you are not gonna have a fun time. The introduction of this shortcut would make things more comfortable and managable.

I honestly can't imagine any circumstance (save for keeping a free hand while you have spunk-inducing material on another screen) where you would want to use hotkeys to change which target is focused.

A mouse will get you there faster every single time (especially under the circumstances mentioned of having lots of targets locked).

There's a hot key you can assign to that, too.
