So I have been taking opportunity of the dual character training feature.

So I have my main on the account always in training, I have a second toon on the account in training.

I want to train the 3rd as well. Nothing much few skills here and there to tweak.

Skills end at odd times in the day, usually when I am not home. So what I would like to do is have the queue full on my 3rd toon, let the queue run empty on the second toon and then thats my question. Does the 3rd toon automatically start training or do I have to log on the 3rd toon and hit apply to on the queue to start the process going again?

In case I wasn't clear Dual character training active.

Toon 1 Training something 15 days in queue.
Toon 2 Training something 2 hours left in queue.
Toon 3 Has things in Queue but can't train because other 2 are training.

So Basically the question is when toon 2 runs out in 2 hours, will toon 3 automatically start his training or do I have to be there to do something?

The best way to have multiple characters is to have two accounts. That way you can run both rooms at the same time also if your buying plex with rl cash that's 20 just for one month of dual training. You can pay 15 on a diff account save money and have two toons.

I have 4 accounts. Not what I am asking. Asking about Dual Character training and how it works.

If you need more specifics on 1 account

Toon 1 Main toon always in training.
Toon 2 in training a Jita Alt, just need to sign on him once a week or so place a lot of buy and sell orders. Close to Tycoon level now but in no rush
Toon 3 When I get to him, just an alt scout to drop in the wormhole for emergencies.

I believe you'd have to log in on the 3rd and manually start the queue. As far as I know, there is no "auto-switch" feature.

Confirming, no auto-switch.

Thank you both.

That would be a nice feature. Maybe in a patch later on. However I will be done training some specialty alts by then.

Auto-switching would be a nice feature even without dual training. Of coarse, longer training Qs would be sweet too.
