EVE Information Portal

Thank you very much!

There is much more ID related ideas. For example if u can add to kill mail ship id, not ship type id but unique id each item should have in DB, we will be able to track how long ship is on duty, how much kills its make befor destroyed etc. Ofcs its need to be added to the victim and envolved section of the mail. If such feature can be added at least to api...

Would it be possible to add in clone type to the pod mails for a more accurate pain caused calculation? When you die and realize you forgot to update your clone, you feel horrible. Just think how good you can feel when you kill someone and you find out they forgot to update their clone!

Awesome!!!

It's time to take off the dust from 2030 scan res Loki

It's pity that it won't work with already gained podkill mails. 127 pod deaths go waste...

This is how CCP is going to win back its subscriber base? By dusting off all the old suggestions that have lurked forever on the forums like some veneral disease, and slapping them into the game? Doesn't exactly bode well for the future, does it?

The issue of whether implants should appear on killmails has been discussed to death many times before, and almost as many times shot down due to one simple fact: Implants are not part of the ship, and therefore should not appear on the killmail.

Even less of a reason to have clone grades on the killmails.

And I am totally opposed to the "brain scanner" idea.

But I never said that the implants of clones should be forever shrouded in mystery. You want to know what implants that pilot had? Fine, retrieve the body, take it to a medical facility and find out yourself. A chance-based, affected-by-skills result may (or may not) tell you what you want to know. In short, you have to work for it. Getting this information handed to you on a silver platter like this is Wrong.

This change should not be implemented as-is. But as everyone here knows, anything even approaching the above suggestion takes :effort: and CCP has had immense troubled delivering on that front for years.

Hum, it would be interesting to expand on the salvaging trade, making people able to 'salvage' implants from bodies, like you said, take th ebody to a station and use an interface like th eone we use to reprocess components on the body, to have a chance based retrieval of the implants.

That would extend eve's gameplay a little.

More emphasis on pod kills.

After all, killing a pod requires so much skill.

Eve is becoming more about your how good your internet connection and computer is than how good you are.

Been waiting for this a logn time, thanks CCP. now smart bombing pods in low sec got 100x more lulzy

Podkills will have real killmails now? Sweet.
Now if we could only NOT have the implants destroyed and also have a skill and a module designed for the extraction of implants from a persons head. . . . .


Hmmm, on second thought, my previous idea would make the KM worthless, the implants weren't destroyed nor were they dropped. . . hmmm

This has been a message from Petebba.

You could make a better hash using IDs so it would be independent of language and item name changes (although still prone to problems with closed corps/deleted pilots). Not that I expect, or particularly want, CCP to add a hash or verification function.

That would actually be more complex and difficult, as it foists the responsibility of having a working item type conversion table available onto the killboard software. Hashes for multiple languages is a vastly simpler solution, and it also allows easy automatic determination of the language of an existing killmail if you didn't have a way already.
