My apologies if this has been suggested previously.


ISSUE: Filtering for Items by name is difficult without wild cards (*)
Example: Trying to make a filter for a Heavy Blaster, not caring if it's a 'Heavy Neutron Blaster' or a Heavy Electron Blaster'.


FIX: Allow users to replace words with a wildcard (*) symbol in search.
Example: Could be achieved by filtering for the name 'Heavy * Blaster'

on-topic: make it possible to go ahead and use items that are within containers, ie BPs, mineral, industrial goods basically and make it possible for finished production to be delivered to containers within hangars?

Just an oddball though, not totally thought out.

I might have added this to some other thread somewhere, but don't recall actually doing anything beyond thinking about it:

Can we have the cargo hold of the currently active ship locked at the top of the sidebar, so it doesn't scroll out of the window when we need to scroll down to select a pos mod or container that's at the bottom of the list?

So, you're a bounty hunter. No, that ain't it at all. Then what are you? I'm a bounty hunter.

fix it so that when my cargohold is full that the jetcan DOES NOT CLOSE when I hit OKAY. This may have been a feature for ships with a single cargohold, but not for the few ships that have multiple cargoholds like, say, a rorqual. Which has three for hauling ore.

As a wormhole dweller, i'd like to open certain hangars to my division. So when i click open [this] hangar, i get to see my stuff straight away (not division 1). And when i click to open [that] hangar, i get to see our corporations shared stuff.

I've dropped my stuff to the wrong division so many times that it's getting frustrating. Please, allow us to make individual "favourite" divisions with certain hangars.

I disagree!

Can we make the first load of corp hangers any faster?

Can the corp asset search be made like the personal asset search (including making it actually work - recently I searched for items by name using the corp search and didn't find them, but they were there).

One small issue - I have two windows up all the time. Left is ships, right is my hangar items. Often when I dock my hangar items switches to the cargohold of my ship, and I have to click back on items. It's pretty annoying.

ISSUE: Scanning, the red color blends in with the background (near impossible for me as colorblind to see the red boxes)

FIX: Give us the ability to change the colors to something which works for us colorblind say light gray, or yellow/green/orange.

Ok, I will re-post one possible solution here, I hope that there is a team following up things here. (Also I hope that they already got to this conclusion)



Eve have many problems now.. one of them is POS and the Item management in there. This is also attached to the corporation management issues. As you guys noticed when fixed the orca and the carriers Cargohold division, It is impossible to fix the current System so the solution lays on taking the feature out of the corporation management and then fix them out of it, creating a solid and simpler system.

For the rest of the corporation Inventory (Including the POS inventory) you have to do the same thing, Take the access management and remove it from the corp management( Soon it will make sense), HOW:

First: Remove the corporation tab divisions making it a single inventory that have access from everyone.(changing 1 problem to other)

Second: You have to create a new Item, "Secure Hangar", It should be like a container, that once unpacked will work like a Tab, having the same volume as the content. (At this point if you want split things, put a password to open it.)

Third: Create a new UI to manage the access of containers, in this UI should have options like "allow corp", "Allow corp - Director", "Allow corp - miner", and other options like adding a player name, corp name or alliance name. Also, It would be interesting if was possible to change ownership of the container.

Fourth: this same UI solution may be applied to the pos management. Setting to it a Owner, (the ceo orr other player) that can allow individual "tab acces" like the hangar access. solving also one of the biggest player nightmare.



This is the most simplistic way to escape from the old game code. I hope it helps, and if this don't help, please tell me why, i'm curious.

Issue: takes to long to sell lots of items
Fix: "Sell all" button

Issue: ME/PE values are annoying to look up
Fix: Show ME/PE values on the BPO image itself (similar to the lock icon when a BPO is locked in a corp hangar)

Fix the windows disappearing every time you redock, it's really really annoying. (My ship hanger, and inventory always disapear when I redock and I have to reopen them every single time.

Thanks.

"Highlighting" of locations on travel route:

I am not sure if this has been mentioned...but for us ocd types that like to keep things organized, once you set a route, lets say from rens to jita, locations along that route that you have inventory items in should highlight in the assets location list, just like locations highlight in the market window, allowing you to see items available on your route. Would help wonderfully on both organization and, savings, since you may find you already have a ship or mod you need on route...saving an isk here or there.

Also...is there a reason we can't include the name of the region in the location listings? (e.g., System III - Moon 1 - Core Complexion Inc. Warehouse (METROPOLIS)). That omission there and in the clone location window have always been a pet peeve. Big smile

Thanks for the great game and excellent experience!
