The option to CHANGE the key didn't appear until 2003. The feature itself was probably there since the start, just hardcoded to the TAB key.

Shouldn't you be posting this in the "bugs" forum then?

Everything was done by hand getting targets was tricky.

It's amazing that it was the same ones being soooooo vocal about having mob limits and AoE limits put into the game even though they were not ever a classic thing but now here you are complaining when he actually makes something classic.

The irony isn't lost on me one bit. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Tab key was switch between self and previous target, right?

No, that's an entirely different thing.

We're talking about cycling between nearest NPC (or PC) here.

I know what you're talking about. If there was the 'tab' targeting you talk of (cycle through npc), it was using a different button. Tab classically switched to self and back to previous target. That's what Dolalin's link illustrates. In the patch thread Secret's 2003 UI picture shows this too (except f8 and tab are switched around).

That is stupid... tab targetting is a staple to the game.

Does this refer to Target cycling? Or to targeting the nearest NPC?
