My targeting will switch from one ship to another while firing. I've notice this happening in Alert when targeting the dreadnought ship. Sometimes my targeting flips to a weaker target even though my ship is pointed at the dreadnought. This has also happened where I am firing at a capital ship and my target flips to a smaller fighter.
In addition sometimes my targeting/weapons HUD lights up indicating that I can fire (I'm in range of a target), however when I click on the fire button nothing happens. I then have to click on a target to fire. Usually when I click fire on a lit target/weapons HUD my weapons fire at a target.
I am noticing the same thing. And if I'm clicking, I have to do so 2 or 3 times to get powers to activate. Pressing keys on the keyboard is more reliable, but even then powers don't always activate.
I've noticed this in general, except my target completely clears (without hitting any of my target keys) and I have to target all over. It gets really bad when there are large groups of enemies or during PvP. I did manage to catch a glimpse of a PvP ship turning blue (as if an ally) for a split second and being removed as a target. I often have to double tab my targeting keys to cycle targets. All this started about two months ago.
