Can we also get to view the outside of the station while docked? Seriously.

@ Black-Star, we're all basement dwellers anyway, CCP recognized this and understood the introduction of 'window' into our sheltered lives may just blow our minds.

also: remote camera to view outside station.. I haz them .. lrn2 alt character (although not as applicable in nullsec) I can even 'remote camera view' the other sides of gates this way all without un-docking my character.

and having a million alts in no way causes more stress on CCP's servers (citation needed).

if we have a camera to show whats outside maybe we could have the same for gates?
I think we should always know what's on the other side be it undocking or gates.

While I'm asking for an easier world.

Also I think we should have a little red dot, near where session timer is, that turns on when someone is cloaked on the same grid as us. I may as well ask for turrets for reppers, neut and nos. So we can see how many they have, and what size they are. Maybe some kind of marking on the side of the ship for each type of Ewar module the ship has, etc, etc...
Although we do have lots of killboards with fits people usually use, so maybe we don't need all that stuff.

Please make everything easier for us :)

I find it amusing that players against suicide ganking are also for WiS.

Well don't undock in your firetail then... or make instawarp bookmarks or something
Also like a previous poserted said: turn on session change timer, undock, stop the ship, wait 30 seconds while you're invulnerable, dock again.
There, you have just looked outside with no risk to your ship

bubble has no effect on the session timer
lag is your problem
lay off the vodka

people, you are in a closet in the heart of the station (your balcony faces the INSIDE)
what window do you expect when you're 300+ yards away from the external side of the station?

Heh... here's a thought...

In your Captain's Quarters, have a display, 3D possibly (maybe one you pull up similar to pulling up the map) that shows the station centered and any visible ships outside it within 100KM.

Yes, in Captain's Quarters only.

CCP had discussed with CSM 4 (or was it 5?) a proposal for an 'overview-like' window to display station grid information while docked. It's in the meeting minutes, if someone wants to search for it.

Something like this is likely to show up in-game once Local goes delayed (hopefully everywhere).

...due to your failure to understand game mechanics?

Undocking is risk free unless you're in the kickiest of kick-out stations. (Don't dock in those)

There are technical limitations.

You know how laggy (for many) and resource intensive CQ is. Imagine that 4-1000 times (based on the number of people in the system). That is about what you would get if the server placed the CQ of everyone on the same node as the system outside the station. And it would be like that inside and outside of station.
