A new citizen Zhu Khan asked if there was a way to determine what fleet bonuses he's receiving when in fleet. Zhu's Thread.

While we can all use EFT or a calculator to determine what bonuses we should be getting or what bonuses we currently have, this information is very useful, yet no practical tools exist to identify it.

This has been brought up before: View Fleet Bonuses with UI, but that thread is old and locked....

The green checkbox showing we're getting bonuses from a random fleetmember just isn't enough!!! As a person all to familiar with the buggy fleet mechanics, where sometimes Warfare links work and sometimes they don't, I think we really deserve and should have an additional tab to the Fleet Management Interface.

This tab should show the Current Fleet bonuses, who is providing them, and what their fleet position is:
For example:
Fleet Bonus Tab:
______________________________________________________________________________
10% bonus to armor from Fleet Booster (FBcharacterName)
10% bonus to targeting range from Fleet Booster (FBcharacterName)
10% bonus to scan resolution from Fleet Booster (FBcharacterName)
2% bonus to mining yield from Fleet Booster (FBcharacterName)

15% bonus to Shields from Wing Booster (WBCharName)
28.12% bonus to Shield Resistances from Wing Booster (WBCharName)
28.12% reduction to Cap use of Shield Boosters & Transporters from Wing Booster (WBCharName)
28.12% reduction to duration of Shield Boosters & Transporters from Wing Booster from Wing Booster (WBCharName)

15% bonus to agility from Squad Booster (SBCharName)
48.52% bonus to the range of propulsion disruption modules from Squad Booster (SBCharName)
________________________________________________________________________________

why?
1.) This really allows people to see what boosts they are getting, and allows them to rectify it when they aren't getting boosts they desire.

2.) It might help us to finally debug the fickle fleet booster issues. I can't tell you how many times we've had to revoke a booster and then re-designate them as a booster just to get their bonuses to pass correctly.

3.) You could take the interface farther, and allow people to see the bonuses that effect each squad and wing, but I'll be extremely peachy if I can at least so the boosts that are effecting me!!!

Finally, It was suggested by Dzu Khan that mousing over the green checkbox could have a popup providing this info too... That's also a good idea....


If you like this idea... please go support the Assembly Hall Thread: [Proposal] Provide a Fleet Bonus Information Tab to the Fleet Management Interface.

This would be a cool feature to be able to see when in a fleet. It would also allow for the FC to confirm and make sure MAX Boosts are being passed down to members in the correct wings/squads.

Completely agree with the idea, not sure about it being in "another tab". Promoting a new window (or a tab) for every new feature is a bad way of doing things imo. But still, +1 for the idea.

By new tab, I imagine a new tab in the fleet box.... You know how you have a tab to show broadcasts, a tab to show fleet members, and a tab for the fleet finder.... add a fleet bonuses tab to display the bonuses you're receiving...

Ooh, and I love how this idea comes from a new player, yet all the vets find it a great idea.

Yet another example that new players aren't useless.
