"We also got some nice new fancy icons for each race to use on the market. Not sure where else to use them yet, but they sure are pretty."

Faction Navy Ships are a definate start for those pretty icons.

Not sure of POS plans and changes but when shopping for POS towers it is quite common to sort by race of tower you want first then by the size next. Those icons might have a use there too.

But yeah, ships for now would seem the best use of those pretty icons. Perhaps a section too for quick searching Faction items of different races - A quick faction shop kind of thing for buying those Republic fleet warp disruptors and Fed Navy webs etc

I went and checked this out. A POS turret deployed in space has this big base with a little gun mounted on top and another on the bottom. But in the market preview only the base shows.

Can you do me a favor and write a bug report up on it? It would be greatly appreciated! :D

How about that long requested, often ignored shopping list idea?

Working like this: Open market > Item Search > right click > add to shopping list > repeat.

Saves trawling through item hierarchy and probably server resources listing all items in a group when you want only one of them.

In my opinion, if the items are sorted in terms of its efficiency, something that the Meta Level seems to represent, we can cut down the time a new (or forgetful pilot) spends on running through half the list only to find out that actually the first module after the base Tech 1 module is the best named T1 module. Some game/server performance saver there, perhaps? Less click too? Less market order requests to server if the pilot selected each item instead of clicking the information icon straight?

So, in terms of efficiency and functionality, the Cruise Launchers should be listed this way, in ascending order:
  1. Cruise Missile Launcher I
  2. 'Malkuth' Cruise Launcher I
  3. 'Limos' Cruise Launcher I
  4. XT-9000 Cruise Launcher I
  5. 'Arbalest' Cruise Launcher I
  6. Cruise Missile Launcher II


Yes, yes, a THOUSAND times YES!!!

One of the problems we have is that not all the items have proper meta levels assigned to them. People looking at static data exports will notice however that behind the scenes we are working on fixing this. No time frame or promise of any kind, but hopefully once we are done that we can look at doing this.

Looks nice!

Can we have a global type contract as well? So that people in trade channels can bid on auctions and accept public contracts even tho they arent in same region? thanks!
