Im curious if warning targetted is picking up the aimbot that is out there to target everyone or if it is bugged. I've noticed various cases of it repeating multiple times while I myself am in a small corner / area, do a 360 and no mech is in sight.

today I ran down jenner alley theta - sigma with my raven 3L with ECM on disrupt. had some mechs chasing me at 500 meters, even after rounding the corner and they where 800 meters off and not targettable i was getting repeated "Warning, targetted messages" they gave up the chase, and yet i still got some 3-5 more warnings while intententionally hiding behind a building with no enemy in LOS.

is it possible the radar/aimbot hack is triggering this message? or is this an ingame bug?

definitly possible.. I've been thinkin bout the false positives i've been getting from betty on the subject..... seems i get them when i shouldnt while using ecm..

I've come to think that perhaps targeting info is out on the client but perhaps hidden from view.. maybe someone found it and turned it on like the old ballhacks in a FPS..

heck maybe it's possible to target anyone any time and get target info.. not just a rough target marker. The data could all be out there on the client, but maybe the UI just doesnt display the info until it thinks ur able to see suff..

someone mighta figured out how to turn all that info on.

Might be the target decay module, original targeting mech loses lock, but another still has it because of the module.

if that one loses lock another mech with the advanced target decay might still have it.

S!

Getting the targeted warning in a cave with no Mechs nearby really is annoying. I would put this to the list of bugs.

i noticed that, too. But i always thought it is someone taging me

[Corvus Antaka]

yes indeed. at first I put it up too someone targetting me, using the targetting module, etc. But now I am absolutely convinced after experiencing it 2-3 times in areas where I had ECM and was hidden having the "Warning targetted" trigger even though I know the enemy is too far oof, no one is around, i triple checked to make sure I was not being stupid, etc. It's definitely either a bug, or being triggered by something else outside being targeted.

buggy as hell, that's all. I removed the sound file, so annoying.
