I hope you add a filter to show bookmarks in P&P folders for current system only. Possibly even filter them by System, Constellation, and Region.

Either way, this reduce a lot of clutter for us and make our People & Places a more effecient tool to use while in space.

Especially when I am in wormholes. I dont need to see hundreds of bookmarks I have out in K space. Only need to see the ones for the system Im in.

  • Incomplete: There is no way that I could find to control what shows up on the compass. I tried playing with overview, brackets, ESC menu, ricght/left-click, found nothing. Awaiting control interface?
  • Modification: There is no way to turn off bookmark display in space, should I foolishly decide I don't want them shown. Not even hide all brackets will work. See below.
  • Mouse over the compass itself and there should pop up a tooltip where you can filter the different types of brackets available


    The tooltip menu is only displaying when I align the HUD to the top. Known issue ?

    Lol i can only see one bookmark and its in the same sys as me, even though i have atlest 20 in this sys. tryed turning it off and on again. I jumped into the sys next door and there i can see all the bookmarks corp and my own. jump back into the first sys and still only my one book mark, tryed making a new one and still no luck.

    The settings should show up regardless of HUD alignments. Do you have UI scaling turned on by any chance?

    There was an issue where some older bookmarks would fail to load but that should be fixed now. If this still persists I urge you to file a bug report and reference the system and character afflicted and I will follow up this.

    Yes, 90% UI on a 1680*988 resolution.

    Found it. Will take a look to see what is going on. Please don't delete or change you existing personal bookmarks in that system just yet :P

    Compass and inspace bookmarks are among the best improvements to EVE ever, thanks guys and props for implementing them so well!

    I was wondering if it would be possible to use the compass to re-align the camera view in tracking mode.

    Basically if I'm in tracking mode and click on the location of a anom/bm or whatever in the compass area of the UI, have the camera shift to that view that as if I had clicked something in my overview while in camera tracking mode, also possibly being able to swing the camera 360° on the horizontal plane by click-and-dragging along the compass would be interesting.

    Thanks for your time, great expansion so far.

    That would be great, please submit a bug report from in game if possible so that we can get the appropriate error logs.

    Once you've done this you can try changing your ui scaling to a different option as a work around, as this should allow you to access the options for the time being.

    not sure if it was mentioned here already, but would be nice to have those bm's clickable and have them like selected item (for better aligning warping etc) now only right click menu works ... same drones and planets cannot be in selected window now - broken

    One thing that seems kind of "off" is how the compass direction doesn't correspond to the camera/dscan direction when you have the system map open. It might also make sense to use the same colors in the system map for bookmarks, landmarks, and so on.

    I just realized that you can now mark the high-sec to low-sec entry gates with a visible bookmark. Very useful if you want to avoid accidents. Works the other way around, too, should your security status be a kill on sight in high-sec.

    On Grid Bookmark:
    - point your ship in any direction in space
    - create bookmark, Ctrl-B
    - in new bookmark window, set distance from ship for new bookmark location
    - type numbers 1 thru 850; vector is current direction your ship is pointed/moving
    - click ok to save new bookmark 850km away from your current location *(or whatever max on-grid distance is)

    *afaik, max on-grid distance is ~850 km. So if that is not max grid distance, set to whatever max on-grid distance is for creating new bookmark.


    Don't necessarily agree w/ this one, this gives anyone the ability to instawarp to opponents location. I.e. someone ongrid, but over 100k out... point to them, quickly create bookmark, warp, pew-pew ensues.
    That requires being active. Why is any of this a bad thing?

    Worst idea ever!
    I'm currently too tired and lazy to do it, but others will probably explain you why.

    Edit: in fact, they already did...

    Hello CCP Lebowski,

    I did it 8 days ago, and still none comments. Do you want the report Number. Also I can confirm : it works with 100% scale UI but not with a 90% UI on my screen.
