No Settings. It just works! (Or doesn't in this case)
Lore: Targeting computers are known to be faulty in the BTU. This mod just brings that to the video game. Don't trust screens, that mech isn't equipped with an AC5!
"We're here for the payday, not the politics. Let's get salvage in here and see what we can use. Thermite bomb the rest."
A small gameplay mod that scrambles the targeting computer's detailed information until you achieve a sensor lock, adding a layer of challenge to combat. With 22 endorsements and last updated in July 2024, it's a niche tweak for players seeking a more demanding experience.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Adds a meaningful challenge for veterans looking to spice up combat
- Tiny footprint—easy to install and doesn't bloat your load order
- Fresh take on targeting mechanics that changes how you approach engagements
⚠️ Cons
- Only 22 endorsements—not a widely tested mod, so expect potential quirks
- Last updated mid-2024—may not be compatible with the latest game patches
For experienced players who find the default targeting too easy and want a tougher, more tactical combat loop. Skip if you prefer streamlined QoL mods or are new to the game—this adds friction, not convenience.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Test this mod in a low-stakes mission first to see how the scrambling affects your aim before diving into serious fights.
- Pair it with a sensor-focused build or ship loadout to mitigate the lack of info until you get a lock.
- Check the mod's comments section for any reported issues with specific game versions before installing.
