The dobbel click in EVE gives a new direction and sometimes acceleration to a higher velocity. But the hud shows only the actual velocity. For the purposes of PVP and some work at a POS I want to make a proposal for the hud, when you have switched on the tactical overview:


  1. Add a vector like an arrow at the center of the ship that shows the actual direction
  2. Add a vector like an arrow at the center of the ship that shows the desired direction given by the dobbel click or the align cmd
  3. Add a value for the actual speed to the vector for the actual direction, by a colored bar or so. But don't use the length because at lower speed the arrow will be to short.


All the information should be already in the client, so there will be no additional server load.

I support this as it seems like a pretty damn functional tool to have. Also, make it really sciencey and cool and ****.
