I am so completely tired of the inadequate targeting system in the game for many reasons.
1. During high density times and player crowding it can be painful to get the proper machine/npc/item selected.
2. For some reason items at or near the crafting turn ins and bankers totally and completely ignore the do not auto loot stolen items fix this or remove the items if this is intentional then it is viewed by my fellow players as being intentionally done with malicious intent.
3. targeting nodes for gathering can be serious pain as you may have to back up and reapproach several times before you can gather.
4. approach a workbench and see it listed in the target yet when you click you can occasionally get the nearby npc for no apparent reason.
