Script items (like Tracking or Sensor Booster scripts) that reduce mining module cycle time without influencing yield but alleviate boredom.


^ this

I'd happily give up cargo space to improve mining laser cycle times. Not just to reduce boredom, but to reduce time wasted mining part of a cycle's worth of ore, without having to survey every rock and count cycles.

When I right-click on a BPC that is in a lab hangar to do invention, I would like that lab to be preselected in the "select a facility" window.

When the target I'm looking at explodes, please leave the camera on the wreck, rather than snapping back to my ship.

When the target I'm looking at explodes, please leave the camera distance the same, rather than snapping back to minimum range. I have the camera distance set to "way the heck out there" for a reason (my graphics card can't handle looking at ships close up).

Ability to share the mission space bookmark with fleet, so we don't have to continually promote squad members to fleet commander for fleet warps.

"You failed to jump because you are cloaked."

While in a Deep Space Transport, traveling around around from system to system you will repeatedly get this message when arriving at a gate cloaked (which is the ENTIRE point of driving a Deep Space Transport in the first place) if you used the Jump command to initiate your warp. If you happen to drift into 2km (often), you will be de-cloaked and then just sit there, requiring you to push Jump again, and of course spamming it like a banshee in any sort of low/null situation. Suuuuper-capitcal Annoying in any situation, and I would be shocked if this wasn't already mentioned several times :D

"You failed to dock because you are cloaked." = same deal.

Most annoying thing of the week: You failed to dock/jump because you are cloaked (in your Deep Space Transport).

Can we make it so you can only repackage station containers when they are empty.

I find that useful sometimes...

  1. Do some mining in wspace
  2. Switch to indy and haul ore to CHA at POS
  3. Wait for a good hisec exit
  4. Put ore in GSCs (for the extra 900 m3 per can) and haul to refinery station
  5. Move full GSCs to hangar, select all, repackage
  6. Stack all

Much easier than manually dragging stacks of ore out of 11 or so GSCs.

... wait, you were talking about station containers. If it's only station containers, then I approve wholeheartedly. Even better, though, would be a message saying "Do you really want to repackage these containers?" with buttons "Yes", "No, don't repackage", and "No but carry on and repackage everything else".

A shortcut for "drop gate cloak". Currently if that's all you want to do you got to double click in space, then stop your ship real fast.

So you jump, then align to something to start moving and break cloak, and immediately activate your cloaking device...

If you don't wait till you actually start moving, you get: "Interference from the cloaking you are doing is preventing your systems from functioning at this time." Translation: "You cannot cloak because you are cloaked."

Probably there's a race condition between the two requests:

  1. Finish jumping. Client and server agree that you're in the new system, at the gate, cloaked
  2. Select "Align to" on something. Client tells server "I want to align here" and waits for reply
  3. Press cloak button. Client says "You can't do that, you're cloaked". No need to consult server
  4. Server tells client "OK, you're now moving in this direction and accelerating, oh and by the way you're not cloaked any more". Client has forgotten that you requested to cloak

If there was a "drop cloak" button, the client would know you wanted to cloak after decloaking, so by the time it sends that request to the server, you'll be decloaked.

Has needed redoing from day one, tbh.

So right now I'm trying to cash in some LP points. I'm a couple jumps from Jita, but in a different region. So I open up a notepad, create a new one, and half expect to be able to mark a few of the items I can get on LP market so I can fly to jita, right click on the link, and view market details there.

Unfortunately, as it is with a great many EvE windows that display items...there is simply no way to do what I want short of typing in the name, selecting, right clicking, and doing the whole search for auto-link thing. It would be oh so much nicer if I could just drag from the LP store window to the notepad (or anywhere) and get a link...but the LP window doesn't work that way. Neither does the info window unfortunately, or anything else I might click on to get a view of the item. The type, select, search for auto link thing is the only way to do what I want....and I'm too drunk to want to **** with it right now.

So there's another little thing: make drag and drop work consistently.

Show the frequency crystal damage in the info window (or in some other universally accessible location)! How many times do I have to ask for this SIMPLE change before it's done?

Approval's been unanimous, all we need is for you to get your act together and actually do it.

When I get jumped and need to quickly change a frequency crystal from Scorch to Multifrequency or possibly Conflag, that tooltip that pops up and obscures my options really is a pain in the hole. Can we make so that if you right-click, it disappears.

Like, immediately.

I'm missing some Conflag volleys while their MWD cycle's still running, or I end up loading Conflag when I really need MF


Just seems stupid.



Thanks!
