Both in same corp. Tried to save location in corporate folder, but did not appear on map when alt looked for it. Baffled.

The mission site despawns once you turn it in, including all roids.

Thanks for the reply. I was trying to mine after the battles were done and before I turned the mission in.....

There's a small delay on corp BMs appearing for other players...varies from just a few seconds upto a few minutes.

Easiest would be to fleet up and just warp your alt in direct to the other character as he finishes the site - or to manually transfer the bookmark via a contract, station trade or just jet canning it in space.

but what would I know, I'm just a salvager

I second this.
Best is simply have them both in a fleet that way the alt gets the standings gains as well.

Alas, I have only one account. As far as the delay in saved locations, the map my alt brought up did not have the locations marked even after 10 minutes or so. I'll try again. One more thing, are bookmarks different than "saved locations"? Maybe I'm too far behind the game to know the difference....

Thx all!

The site will still despawn if you kill the mission completion trigger.

Pretty sure that only occurs after downtime. You have till next downtime to mine.

There is a way to contract bookmarks to yourself. Cannot remember the details as have not done it in a long while but a quick google will reveal how.

I double click on Personal Locations bar. It opens a separate window of personal locations. I then drag and drop those I want into Corporation Locations folder. Takes a few minutes as noted earlier.

Might depend on the mission, but most of the ones I mined would despawn if I completed the mission and left grid without an alt there.

I have used corporation bookmarks successfully in the past: I can not remember if you need roles/privileges to see them though.

You can move bookmarks to item hangar in a station and then contract them to your other character. If you are in the same corporation, use corporate hangars for the exchange.

If you kill mission trigger and warp out from site, mission site will despawn no matter what you do, only wrecks will remain in that location. Your mission runner must be in mission site if u want to mine ore in it!

Nah, just leave the mission completion trigger alive, most of them can be tanked easily.

I often find the corporate BMs take a long time to update across characters, if I'm in a hurry I do this:
