Steam cancelling targets

[Radar Mile]

So I've noticed that when I'm using UO steam and attempting to cast a spell, if I'm moving while casting or sometimes even shortly after the reticle appears, I get a "target cancelled" message and it drops my target cursor. This is extremely annoying especially in PvP. Has anyone had a similar issue?

Do you have corpses opening while holding the target?
You can set it to not open corpses when targeting or hiding in the Options menu

I had this trouble for 2 months some months ago then it stopped and 2 days ago it has started again. I've always used option for avoid corpse and doors opening. I've tried various steam releases but nothing changed months ago and now. This happens also if i cast by spell grid or spellbook. Have you noticed it on a char with healing also?

This happens in steam when a bandaid is being applied to yourself. The target is canceled before uosteam targets yourself. I Believe this occurs when you have a bandaid macro as opposed to using the bandaid self hotkey. I haven't tested this fully though because I don't use heal mages.

After some thorough testing I have determined that it's tied to rubberbanding. Initially I disabled target queuing and that seemed to improve it a bit. But it's still dropping targets at the most inopportune moments. I haven't had this issue at all with Razor or Sallos.

So far I've tried turning off corpse and door opening, and target queuing. My bandage macro is the BandageSelf hotkey, but regardless of whether or not I have a bandage ticking this still occurs. Strangely, it does not happen on my tamer, only on my heal/mage. Seems strange that simply the existence of a skill or set hotkey would cause something like this.

Also of note, this issue predates the client upgrade and the launcher introduction

Thoughts? @Adam

In 600+ days it happened to me only in some periods of time. It happened to me also on chars without healing like thief provo or tank. No healing hotkey setted ofc. Possible skills cooldown iteract with cast? Like i use hide then cast and keep target then i could re hide and steam read it as i m "using" hiding and cancel target.

I am also experiencing this. It sucks, I guess I have a reason to finally go back to Sallos.

@Kareem , it s the autosearch containers that try to search in the quiver you wear, am i right?

 

[Kareem]

This fixed a few people's issue with this target cancelling. Since the [organizeme changed to bags and not pouches more people were using the auto-search containers. It was only happening on certain characters. On a whim I googled it and found this old thread. After adding quiver to the exempt list it solved the issue.
