I also found that the Red Triangle that should be intentionally above a locked target can fix itself on a location in your hud despite not having a target on screen, this is often reproduced by flipping between several targets at a rapid pace then facing away.

I have seen the "stray" target indicators described above as well.

I have also noticed that the target indicators are unadjusted by the advanced zoom module. Prior to the 5 Feb patch the indicators worked "correctly" in the zoomed area (and I do not think I ever noticed how they behaved out of the area). Now they seem to remain "attached" to the un-zoomed area and do not help with target location or identification in the zoomed area. This really makes the advanced zoom module significantly less useful than it was previously.

I hope these issues can be fixed quickly.

Advanced targeting compounds the issue. Going into advanced zoom mode will start the problem almost every time.

I have it too, happens randomly, and it's just not the target lock, but sometimes just the triangle for either enemy or friend.

This is the future feature called ghost targets !! Enjoy it, even if it's not working correctly !

Same issue; both red and blue triangles, and sometimes full target box with text and icons, 'sticking' on the screen instead of following the correct position.

(At first I thought it was a new unannounced buff to ECM, but then noticed that the marks really don't move on screen at all.)

Yes, saw it come up in two games out of 8 just played. Hopefully it gets run down and fixed soon.

This happened to me in every game I played last night. Very not-amusing.

Thankfully, LRMs will still lock on the true target but I have encountered this phantom target bracket.

I'm also having this issue, but only for enemies (no 'ghost' blue triangles). It's happened to me several times (I'd say in about 30% of my matches so far) but I haven't been able to determine the trigger as of yet.
