After the lovely addition of the new BPO/BPC icons I would like to request a small addition to this in the way contracts can be linked.

There are allot of people trading blueprints and allot of people looking for blueprints wich is a good thing

now there are people that deal in bpc's and people that deal in Bpo's.

at the moment there is no way (accept for opening the contract) to see if a linked Blueprintcontract is a bpc or a bpo


Could you please introduce a small ticker in the contract links were we as players can recognise what type of contract we are dealing with

example : how it is now [***** Blueprint]

improved version:
[***** Blueprint Copy]
[***** Blueprint Original]

tickers may be smaller or different but I would like (and I guess many others) to atleast have something

yes scammers will try to abuse this feature I guess but people should always tripple check a contract before they hit accept anyways.Lol

this feature would also be a nice addition to the current Item links people do into chats

Yes, blueprint trading needs to be fixed, way too hard to buy and sell what you want with this system.

There is a filter in contracts that allows you to search for either BPC's or BPO's. That's the only way I shop for either.

Also, isn't a BPO darker in color than a BPC?

EDIT: Additionally, isn't there a field in the line items listing that displays what item types there are? I know here it will show whether or not a BP is a copy or an original.

This topic is not about the contracts window, ccp has done a nice job with adding the two different colored icons and separate search options.

What this topic is about is the actual linking of either blueprint contracts or blueprints into a trade chat or regular chat were people want to show there to be sold or discussed blueprint.

allot of traders will recognise it, allot of non-traders will never had this problem

Yes, it's needed.
