my problem is I can't see NPC ships. I toggle to the ship's icon on my hud and see a blank screen with no ships. this happens every once in a while I log off to come back in fine but today no ships and there were ships allover I just could not see who they are.
'I would like to be half as clever as some people like to believe they are' Life is full of disappointments, it is how we handle them that helps to define us, as a person
Are you referring to the bottom left list of contacts? The npc filter has several "modes." Try clicking on the ship icon several times and the npcs should appear on the list.
► Radar Filter: Scroll through Radar modes to only have selection of piloted ships and prevent hostile solar objects or drones to obstruct your target selection. [DEMONSTRATION] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dujhDoDsTGw
