might be one of UI improvements CCP implemented, which do not suck.

i'll back up the request for tracking in the tooltip, that would be very helpful... as tactical overview cna show ranges sorta, but only show info shows tracking... so adding that would probably be nice.

When your modules are damaged, there will be a red text below the module name that says "x% damaged" and if the ammo is damaged, there will be text like that below the ammo name and it will say "0.x damaged".
That is the reason why the tooltips are kind of tall, there are 2 lines for each element in the tooltip and they need some breathing room to be clear


Awesome! Thanks for the heads up Big smile

Awww What?

I thought you meant the actual mod/ammo tooltip in the cargo or hangar.

Hey CCP. While you're making these awesome changes to the UI is there any chance you could look at a user friendly way of creating custom brackets labels as described here. It's something I've been meaning to get around to doing my self but can't get past the means.

Keep up the good work! :D

AWHHHOOFFFHAYAYYAY!!!

Or, simply put, finally!

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you,.

To be sure Bear, that's when Im docked, and crystal is in a container, right?

Awhhh, it was too good to be true. Sad
But thank you for your reply. Smile


still...
It's so(ooo) long on every crystal users wish list from simple miner to hard core PvP-er, there's got to be a way to extend this super mouse over info, to a simple container based anywhere.

It's such a pain to grab all your damaged crystals in your cargo, undock and go over them 1 by 1 to determine their damaged state. Worst thing if you're shooting stuff there is this 1! crystal in the bunch, damaged far far more then the rest you have and it suddenly, always at the worst possible moment goes 'poof' and you cannot shoot at all!
I can handle it in Pve but PvP its always a killer.

Please? Mouse over damage stats for crystals everywhere? Those not using crystals always know how much they have left. Why after all these years keep on discriminating crystal users? Sad

I like the new tootips. But it would get annoying if it came up every time i simply mouse over something.

could add to right click menu on item "show tooltip" to the list? that would be preferred. Big smile

i thought I said it, but why is it so dos looking?

In the trailers the UI has circles and cool sci fi shapes. Are there any plans to make these new tool tips also just look more neat? more polish in the UI?

You might call it differently... I'm talking about the pop up box that shows up when you "mouse over" a module:

Current ToolTips on TQ: Pic

New ToolTips on SiSi: Pic

On the new ones, you get the range, the falloff and the DPS right there. It even shows the correct DPS when overloaded... AWESOME! \0/

EDIT: Ading 2 moar screenshots with some ammo

Here you see the radio and here you see the multi. :D


Damn! That is sexy! Please implement in Tranquility ASAP! I love it!

By the way, perhaps a dumb question, but I spend more time playing than reading, what is the SiSi server? Is it analagous to the PTR in WoW?

I don'y play wow so I don't know what PRT is. But SiSi is the test server. Stuff is tested there before it gets implemented on the main server.

There's a whole sub-forum about it... linky

Dokładnie, więcej polskiego w UI :)

Exactly, more polish in UI :)

But trololo aside, nice improvement - less right clicking is always better.

Keep CCP Archer away from this.
