Remove auto aim on shield turrets

The auto aim doesn't help much on shield turrets and from what everyone says is just toggle autoaim completely.
Might as well remove the auto aim on them.

Just toggle a/a off. Done.

You should have a/a bound to a key, and just toggle it off it you do not like it.
Your limitation should not be corrected by limiting everyone else.

How does this limit every one else? There's no point in a shield turret using auto aim at all.

Everyone saying toogle a/a proves my point.
Thanks

I read your OP. It doesn't make any sense. Which is why I asked you to expand on your point. Autoaim works fine on the turret (see video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZ2dpo_VUGE ) so why would you want to remove it?

It shoots at ships. Not the projectile it fires. If you accidentally lock onto them with it you can't unlock

Sometimes you want to target the ship, to slow them down, and autoaim helps do that.

Sometimes you do not want to target the ship, and you can cancel your target or turn autoaim off.

More options are good, fewer options are not as good.

You could make a plugin that anytime your current weapon is a shield turret, it turns autoaim off.

But most all real pvp players can toggle autoaim at will.

Learn to play the game, or program the game to play you. But stop trying to handicap the rest of us in order to compensate for your own shortcomings, in the most lazy way posible.

As Roda states: You can just deselect your current target. You don't even need a plugin to do so.

OP makes no sense, if It’s no big deal to run it off, why even bother to remove a functionality that some may use. Also who is “everyone” because those aren’t my thoughts.

I've never seen nor heard of you, roda shane. And plus it's a SHIELD TURRET. Not a weapon. "Real pvpers" don't use shield turrets.

Shield turret does about 1 damage and you can get kills with it. That makes it a weapon.

Haha i have shot people and it does nothing. Since when has it damaged? Neat. +0 to op.

Another pilot and myself did some science. Once you get a ship down to about 1 health, and hit it with a shield turret, the ship will go boom.

Oh, neat.
