Recalling probes now returns them to your cargohold instantly.
Instant recall also happens automatically when your ship jumps or docks and when your probes in-space timer runs out.
Seriously?? Magic? What in the universe can magically travel across the vastness of the solar system instantly? I honestly do not understand why this pandering to the crowd that is incapable of reading a warning message that is already in place to alert the would-be hapless explorer.

You wanted Eve to feel dangerous again, to get a real sense of fear and the unknown. Then you go and add in this asinine change that panders to irresponsible pilots and people who are too lazy to read.

CCP, I am dissapoint. o\

Enter grid and you're already dead, destined to be reborn and fight another day.

They don't move through the universe, they move the universe itself!

CCP said "sense of wonder and the unknown" or "Sense of the unknown", not "Sense of fear and the unknown".

Anyway, probes deply/recall instantly now too, so it doesn't make a lot of difference I suppose.

I wonder what unknown force returns probes to my cargohold instantly.

Personally, I prefer the Miniaturized Micro Jump Drive theory.
