CommonSenseOTB(thinking outside-the-box for your playing enjoyment and the improvement of oolite).
Completed: June 13, 2012 release v1.
MilitaryTargettingSystemv1.oxp is the current version.

The Military Targetting System has been designed to bring targeting in oolite up to date with the rest of the video game world. No longer do you have to point your ship and aim to get a target lock. Instead, simply select from target categories using the equipment activation controls n/shift+n to have whole sets of targets stored onto the Target System Memory Expansion (up to 16 target locks), which may then be scrolled through normally using the standard target selection keys. Use of the Scanner Targeting Enhancement is highly recommended for use with this equipment. Have fun with this! I know you will love this oxp!

Cheers!

Also thanks to everyone that contributed ideas on many other viewtopics I read. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND HELP! -Sincerely, CommonSenseOTB.
