cycling trough targets
is it possible to bind a setting to the scroll wheel to cycle trough targets? if yes, which one?
I loved being able to do this in x3, it saved my from having to open the map everytime just to select ships,stations and more.

Can't remember exact name of next/previous target, but they're bound to pgup and pgdn by default IIRC so just look for those.

There appears to be little thought from the devs when allowing us to target from the cockpit. You either have to have 2 right hands, one on the stick the other on the mouse to target properly. The next/pervious target mechanic will have you cycling through every object on the map instead of ships or enemies.

Well they added a new thingy if you go into mouse cursor mode you can target click on the gravidar.

Huh? I have one of my main (thumb) joystick buttons bound to target the item I'm pointed at just as I did in x3. Recommend binding target closest hostile as well.

I have a saitek x52 and u can bind to circle between not only with ships in space but stuff on a ship like turrets so when i cap a ship id use that button to circle between turrets so i can kill them easier u probably can do it with the keyboard
