Just throwing an idea out there, why not expand this functionality to remote reps? Rather than show us a list of names just show us a number of modules targeting us and their type, Small, Medium, Large, or Capital.

Not a bad little addition... We're getting there slowly but surely aren't we.

Hopefully it works with the top aligned ship wheel also.

The wishlist is pretty much complete...

Can the ship and quantity information from the mouseover be available on the right-click menu as well? Would be nice if we could use one method to both assess the situation and retaliate appropriately. (EDIT: Ok, after watching the video, maybe the action on the mouseover is quick enough to make this one unnecessary.)

Also, how about adding a quantity to the icons to show the total number of a certain debuff active on you? Sort of like an ammo counter.

Exactly what I was thinking. +1

sweet... could you make it so if we right click the new icons it targets the ship doing the ewar???
this would be good for small gang and PVE.

Awesome, so you can right-click on whoever is jamming you and target them!

Wait a sec....

(Awesome news, even though it should've been implemented like 6 years ago)

Being able to see what debuffs a locked target has would be a HUGE buff to ewar in fleetfights, and in a smaller sense in small gangs as well. It'd also let a well coordinated gang outperform a less coordinated gang, by allowing people to spread points, ECM, tracking disruption and sensor dampening among the hostiles.


This is a pretty good point... raise your hand if you've been in a small gang before and upon the FC ordering everyone to "spread points!" everyone in your gang ends up pointing the same 1 or 2 people as the 5 others warp off.

I like it, it's smooth. But I think the information on time / quantity needs to be better displayed, I would suggest on the icons themselves...

Also, if we could get one for other remote effects such as friendly sensor boosting, and better yet, remote repairs, then that would be awesome.

Edit: I originally thought about the rings too, but then decided I like having the time remaining shown, although not to a completely nonsensical number of decimal figures. 1 will be fine, and the best way of ensuring that text is clear to read is to put it on a background, might as well be a bar.

Will it be possible to broadcast a target from the right click menu?

Please give us the option of moving the effects bar to wherever we want, similar to how we can move the HUD.

I have all my locked on targets line up right above my mods and it will comletley cover up the effects bar.

How is this going to fit with the tank percentages overlay?
