New patch 1.49 question

[skigrinder]

In tactical combat, is there any way to set the targeting default for all weapons to 'off'?

In order to perform surgical strikes (with ship capture as the goal), I must first turn off targeting of all weapons and then select the ones I want.

It would be much easier if all weapons were off at the beginning of each combat turn.

Thanx,

An "All Weapons On/Off" toggle has been requested as a new feature a number of times; for now you have to do it manually.

You know, I never noticed it because I always play at 800*600 resolution. I just tried it out at 1200*800 and it I finally saw the range display...cool.
