Player Features and Ideas Discussion

It seems that every time there's an update "that improves the UI" it just means that I have to have even more windows open to get the same stuff done.

An idea to alleviate some of this window madness came to me while shuffling through windows to get items from my ship to a corp hangar. The idea is based off a concept I'm sure a lot of you have seen before. Especially in big retail stores before everything got digital. I'm talking about that system of tubes.

Some lady puts a bunch of paper or money in a little plastic capsule, closes it, and sticks into a tube. By magic (or suction) the capsule is sent off somewhere. Fancier places even had a way for the empty capsules to return.

What if a corp member with appropriate container handling roles could set up shortcuts to different hangars and maybe even station containers within? These shortcuts could be created/built and then handed out to corp members. These items would be a station only item, so no cross station linking or putting them on ships.

Instead of scrolling through windows or having at least two open, a corp member who wanted to deposit something in the corp hangars would just have to drag and drop the item on the appropriate shortcut. The item would be sent directly to the hangar (or station container in the corp hangar) associated with it.

I have my items/ships merged into the station window, so things would be much more streamlined could be handled this way.

So, ISD will lock threads that have "too few people" arguing a few points, because the OP can't grasp that they're stupid for suggesting the idea (see: PLEX for SP, etc) ... and bring threads back from the dead that should stay that way....

you guys have had too many sheep balls (cured in lactic acid) and shots of Brennivin.
