Tab Targeting is More Broken Then Ever

I feel like it’d work perfectly if it traced a 45 degree angle cone from the direction of the camera, not necessarily the character, and toggled enemies within that cone based on distance… tat way it’s somewhat predictable

I came to the forums wondering WTF had changed and found this thread.

So, I have these four CVars set:

  • TargetPriorityCombatLock=1, where 1 is supposed to be “Lock to in-combat targets when starting from an in-combat target” and 2 is “Further restrict to in-combat with the player”.

  • TargetPriorityCombatLockContextualRelaxation=1, where 1 is "Enables relaxation of combat lock based on context (e.g., no in-combat target in front).

  • TargetPriorityCombatLockHighlight=0, it’s the same as the first thing but while doing hold-to-target, which I never use so I didn’t wanna mess with it.

  • TargetPriorityPvp, didn’t bother looking

  • TargetPriorityValueBank, which “selects the value bank”. No explanation of WTF that means, but I guess the description is strictly speaking correct… facepalm

Anyway, those first two are probably what people are noticing is broken. I tried changing TargetPriorityCombatLockContextualRelaxation from 1 (the apparent default) to 0, and that had absolutely no effect on how crappy the tab targeting behaves. It certainly didn’t make TargetPriorityCombatLock do a damned thing, as my tab targeting was immediately selecting stuff not in combat (with anything), random destructable objects, and I think at one point a floor grating. I had to clear the target entirely before Tab would again select any of the mobs beating on my damn face.
