Oh, for the record, I fly pretty reckless and my shots often go where they aren't supposed to. Witness the fact that I have changed my home system about a dozen times in the last month or so due to killing random clean pilots and cops at rez sites. So if I happen to hit someone, its not intentional and please, please don't fire back because in the intensity of a fight I sometimes just lock onto something and I don't realize its a friendly until its too late. Although with the hollow boxes vs the solid ones it should be allot easier to tell friend from foe

Hello,
In a CZ its pretty easy to target an enemy instead of a friend. Once you choose a side, press your "Select Highest Threat" or "Next Hostile target" button. Do not press the "Select Next Target" or "Select Target" (which selects the target in-front of you) button.
For me the "Select Highest Threat" button is a pain. You would think that the Highest Threat is the one shooting at you. But nooo... For some reason it keeps selecting the missile or torpedo floating around and not even chasing after you. Or it selects a target that is close to you but has not engaged in combat with you, just because it's a bigger ship or a high rated ship.
I've noticed recently,that if you accidentally hit friendly targets which you've not targeted, in a CZ, they ignore you or don't turn red on you. The time I've had friendly targets turn red on me was when I accidentally targeted the friendly and started shooting at it (had to do with target lock off/on when chaffing maneuver.)
Have fun, fly safe. o7
