If the player is in a vehicle and a lockable weapon is selected and a target is locked, the locked target will be returned, regardless if it's in sight or not.

Addition to Myke's note: It also works for infantry with launchers that canLock, like Javelin or AA. Only the lock cursor must be visible on the target - not a full lock necessarily.

  • Player must knows about what he is pointing to for this command to return something other than <NULL-OBJECT>
  • This command doesn't work through building windows
  • This recognition doesn't work with every object : soldiers, vehicles, big houses are ok, but not trees, plants, road signs or others little things
