question about multiple targeting

[Newbie999]

I never see any mechanisim in tactical combat that would allow me to split fire when I have a multiplex tracking component -- I just select a target with the mouse and it fires untill all weapons have fired or the enemy ship dies. Am I missing something?

Something MM should really do is write a combat tutorial. Like the game tutorial, you load a scenario that starts combat and follow a help file step by step.
