Hey all, sometimes when i play EVE i think of possible features that could make the gameplay better.
I would like to share some of them:

1. Bounty column in overview
Trough the most logical way to sort the overview is by distance, it could be nice that when you warp into a mission, you could tick a Bounty column for a second and see the rats sorted by their bounty. (perhaps it will also support player's bounty, but that's not the core of my idea :P)

2. See can contents remotely from corp assets window
I really find it annoying that you cant see the contents of a can from the corp assets window.
Such feature could help a lot if you sort the corp assets using cans.

3. See 'Required by' in skill(book) info
Similar to certificates info, when looking at skill(book) info, checking what ships and modules require it.
This gives you idea of a skill priority.

4.1. Right Click > Assemble and make active
Could be nice if you had option to right click on packaged ship, and with one click repackage and make it active.
Could also be Right Click > Hold Shift and click on Assemble.

4.2. Right Click > Leave and repackage
Same thing, but leaving the ship and repackaging it.
Could also be Right Click > Hold Shift and click on Leave.

5. FOF Rockets

6. Disable rocket flame
I only found an option to disable trails, but no option to disable the flames coming of the ship.

7. Expand Market categories when clicking 'View Market Details'
Lets say i view the info for Large Shield Booster II, clicking View Market Details will open the market window but also expand the categories at the right side to Ship Equipment > Shield > Shield Boosters > Large.

8. "Ship Spinning" Dock Bay Light Occlusion
Useless feature, but still i noticed that when you Ship Spinning in gallente station for example, the cyan lights on the ring your ship floats on arent occluded.

9. Control Camera with Keys
Could be really nice if you could achieve the perfect POV by controlling the camera with arrow keys.

10. Queue Jump/Dock while in warp
While in warp, right clicking on gate/station and then jump/dock queue it when you finish warping.

11. More character customization options
Sexy dresses for women, more accessories, gloves, and if possible, more freedom with the camera and the character rag doll when posing for portraits.

12. Let us skin the ships
But let clients to disable downloading them, and only show their own skin.

Added to my Wish List, but that would come in a whole new expansion, they will have to model all the launcher types.

You can use PageUp and PageDown already to zoom the camera in and out, but keys to move the camera around as well would'nt go amiss.

I like 1-4, 7 and 10 of your suggestions.

Especially number 2, the corp cans thing. I was really hoping that cans would show up like 'folders' and that you could move items too and from them from the corp assets list. As you say, if you organize your stuff like that since you're limited by only 7 divisions it is a disadvantage if you can't retrieve something for someone (deliver to member) from out of a can while remote.

The easiest fix they could do right off the bat is let you zoom all the way out when taking an avatar picture.

CCP has this entire NeX market built on track pants, But nobody can actually see my track pants!

I honestly think PoCo based sov is a good idea https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1417544

-Be able to remove the part of the station services screen, that has the corp logo on it ( on the top right by default, when in station)

-Be able to re-size the station services window and icons even further AND fix the fact that it keeps bumping back to original size after a redock.

-Custom paint-jobs, i want a damn flower-power theme on my scorpion ASAP.

-Be able to make my character smaller, taller, more muscular or less muscular.

-Please don't make lego models of EVE frigates, get me some real lifelike models please, a scorpion would be a good start
