 Player should be able to target ships through different keys, e.g. a key
 to target what's in front of them, a key to target an attacker.

 Targets often work via lists, e.g. two people are attacking me, I should
 have a key to cycle through all attackers.

 The targetting system is used by some weapons, e.g. heat-seeking missiles.

 Targets are indicated in two ways: 1) graphical representation (usually a
 crosshair) on top of the actual ship and 2) on the HUD, displaying things
 like ship model, alliance, and, if they have the upgrades, shield scans,
 hull damage scans, etc.

Epiar (ep-ee-are) is an open source computer game, in which the player navigates space from planet to planet, saving money to buy ship upgrades and new ships. The player can also join mercenary missions, attack other ships to steal their money and technology, and explore the universe. The game combines the action/arcade elements of aircraft dogfighting with the strategy of war games and the openness of role playing games to create this entertaining experience.
