Not that EVE has to be like other games or anything, but what's nice is putting your potions (boosters) and ammo (arrows/gems/whateverIdon'tcare) into places where you can rapidly switch to them. Conceptually, this could be easily added to EVE, allowing conveniences such as the following:


  • Ammunition/charges/scripts types could be quickly selected at a glance, swapping out that ammunition in all compatible, uncycling weapons. No more having to group/swap/ungroup for PvE.
  • Boosters could be injected and we could even kept track of their duration and remaining numbers.
  • As with Nanite Repair Paste
  • Locations might be a reasonable thing to include, default to Set Destination > Warp To > Approach , this has some potential for abuse, though, and really doesn't provide a whole lot.
  • Drone groups to Launch > Do Something To Target
  • Other actions with a helpful icon, such as broadcasts, return to drone bay, stop ship, self-destruct, ragequit, dozens of other things that have difficult to remember shortcuts that some people could benefit with a visual/F-key.

To be sure, having "folders" in your cargo would be very nice. Some way to quickly grab my ship-saving boosters other than quickly using the search function.

Buy some small cargo containers to use, quite sure you even gain more space out of them.

AFK cloaking doesn't earn anything, so it needs a buff!

You do, but you can't load/reload from ammo inside of them I don't believe.

This would make life so much easier with inventory management.

It'd just help me keep from forgetting to use boosters.
