Out of Chachter Notes/Real Life Comments.
This isnt meant for CCP Staff, it is directed toward the other players. I ask for their understanding. I had a Head Injury from the war injury. So my grammer, Spelling and even how I look at things, may be off ccenter from the way you look at things. I trying to look at what I wrote 10 times to smoothing it out as I go, adding and correcting, rearranging each time., then I run the draft trough a Grammer and spell checker program.
Please try to take it as it is meant. A humble but serious Suggestion. I would not insult you, belittle your IQ or other Abilities, so please pay me the respect, you would of your loved family member. Well onto the suggestion.

In Character/ as my character.
For the pupose of carrying your BPO's and BPC's onto a ship, You normally use a ( Small secure Container ). I would like to point out the Container is way too large. The Container is ( 120m3 ) in size and if you want a fast Ship. Which is part of transport sm,all Expensive Cargo like this. You cant fit in Shuttle and a few othersAlo9t of your fast Ships are under the 100m3 mark and the fastes is under 30m3 and a shuttle is 10m3.
What I propose is to make a speciality Container. Beside the coiner itself. I will try different Scan resistant material to line the inside of the container to limit the effectiness of a cargo scan. It will be a proper Secure/Audit log Container. My Toon/Charachter has attempted to make a model of his intent. He has taken 3 containers and cutt them down with a weilding torch, and weilded them into a useable version of the 3 containers he wants fabericated by a profesional shop.
The containers made to have the Blueprints placed either into secured partions in the larger verson’s or just to lay them into the smaller one.Tthe containers are of the following size. One will be ( 0.75m3 ), 2nd will be ( 5m3 ), and the last one will be ( 9m3 ). any of the sizes will fit even in a shuttle. They will be securable and offer some hinderance of being scanned, at least equal to a small Secure Container. I believe this is a easy solution for the problem.
I look forward to reasonable feed back to myself and the council, the GM’s so we can sunmitte a request to CCP for implemation of my idea.

Research

P.S
I couldn’t find a space stated for BP’s. maybe one of the G.M. can provide that info for me. A Artcitect gave me his rough finding of fitting 1500# being easy inside an ( 0.75m3 ).

There is item called Blue Box in the game. For now its not usefull for storing anything inside it. Its description:
Quote:
Small, sealed box. A single socket connects it to the outside world.

As blueprints are data, I think they should be stored in small item that holds data. Similar to that Blue Box, it have 0.1 m3 volume.
As blueprint have volume on its own: 0.01 m3, I think they would fit 10 in that box. But making blueprints volumeless or at least 0.0001 m3 would make storing them easier. You could then have infinite or a very large amount (1000) of blueprints in that box. But I dont know if that is feasible.

I think its good idea. Would make holding different, sorted kinds of blueprints in small cargoholds possible, and moving them would be easy. It could act just like any container, but would have space only for blueprints.

I simply do not care one way or another so this is just a random thought.

There is such a container in the game, however it does have a few limitations they call it a bubble wrap and it is achieved by contracting your cargo to another character. At least in times past the only character that could open a bubble wrap was the character it was being delivered to. If this is still true anyone that kills your ship will not be able to get your BPO / BPC all they could do is blow up the package just like all they can do now is blow up your container. Not as easy as your container but it can still be done even by those with a single account.

Nobody scans fast-warping ships unless they're autopiloting fast-warping ships.

A signature :o

Anyone can break the seal on the bubble wrap.

CCP should add more NPC 0.0 space to open it up and liven things up: the Stepping Stones project.

Why do you need a container? Why can't you just select them all and put them in your ship? Are you hoping the loot fairy will screw your killer out of the goodies?

I'm going to build a big wall that will keep the Gallente out, and they're going to pay for it!

Organization, for one. If you're moving a lot of small items (such as blueprints) is a headache to reorganize them.

Anyway, I've advocated in the past for a single new container: 10 m3 both inside and outside. No need to make it fancy or special with being immune to scanning (actually, even as an industrialist, I would be against it because it would cut out a lot of potential fun). Just a single new 10 m3 container. Call it a "Personal Storage Locker" or some such.

Its a tremendous headache, if yoru moving more then 1k blueprints you must put them into containers.
