"BUY FITTING" button... please?

Dear CCP, I love EVE online and I have great respect for all hard working Developers. I have a minor request that would make my life so much simpler. Would you be so kind to add a "Buy Fitting" button? This button would be located at the bottom of the fitting management window and would allow the user to buy directly all lowest-cost-available-items in station. You could go a step further, but this would be a big plus, and display the lowest price for each fitting item available in station. I hope this is not too much effort. Looking forward to seeing this in the next update.

Best regards,
Nijiho

This point has been brought up a number of times. It would be a nice addition. I can imagine, however, that automatically compiling and matching multiple market orders from different sellers could put some strain on the servers.

Dust uses such a feature really well.

You beat me to it - and probably more people have - but I was thinking the same... I got it a little more worked out though:

Add a [buy and fit] button to the browse fittings screen, which gives you a pop-up of what the total price of the transaction will be. Once all items are bought for this price they'll be automatically fitted to the ship ofc. And it can also be cancelled when the total-price pop-up is shown. Or, if you want it to be a little more advanced:

- Add a [buy missing and fit] button to the fitting screen.
- onClick: Show a frame with all modules not present on the ship nor in the inventory, it's prices and a checkbox next to the modules. (Exception 1)
- The checkboxes can be unchecked in case an item is too expensive. It has an [Accept quote] button and a [Cancel quote] button.
- onClick accept quote: this will check if all prices are still correct, buy them and fit all items on the ship. (Exception 2)
- onClick cancel quote: this will cancel the quote and will not fit the modules on the ship.

Exception 1: Show a list of the modules that can't be bought in the current station. Prompt if the user still wants a quote for the other modules.
Exception 2: Give a message that not all prices are up-to-date anymore. Prompt for a new quote/cancel. Go back to step 2 if [New quote] is clicked.

gets very annoying when you have go through 15 items in the market just to buy a 3M fit for a frigate.

This seems highly exploitable. Buy out the market of a specific item then relist it for billions, anyone clicking buy fit is immediately wiped out.

That can be pretty easily sorted by having a ISK cap setting on the same screen.

yea but server load is huge. Already Jita is being killed by long transaction time nad additional calculation needed to check all the fit items.....avaibility for thosoe item prices - to hard to make it live even if the idea will make life easier

Have a look at my post (3 posts above yours) this way you'll get a quote before you press a confirm button

A friend of mine showed me a neat trick: if you drag the fit onto the market quickbar, it'll list all the components in one easily accessible place for quick shopping. That said, I still use the Requisition menu from EVEHQ, which allows me to open the market for each item in turn with one click.

Sounds like this could use a bit of refinement.
Start from any saved fitting you have.
When selected it brings a list up of every item in it in station with prices for all of them.
Looking something like this
Ship Station price Region average price
Module 1 Station price Region average price
Module 2

and so on
Rigs drones and cargo set as a checkable options for this

Note that this can only be set to station range

Hitting accept will buy, assemble, activate the ship, and fit all pieces

Also this will pull from items already in your hangar first

So it shouldn't be too difficult to reuse or port some code...
