Walking in POSs

Dear Devs,

Here's something useful you could do with the whole Incarna thing. I would like to be able to dock my pod with my POS Tower and then walk around inside the tower and have corp meetings in virtual person. This would bring a new life to the old POS Tower and give people a new incentive to set them up. It would seem more like a home for our toons.

All you'd have to do is allow us to dock, enable Captain's Quarters, link the CQ to a common room via the door that is currently locked in CQ - transition that how you like - and then the corp could sit down and have a meeting via whatever voice client they favor. Surely this isn't that hard to do - you've already done most of the work with Incarna. Null stations could have it too - a corp/alliance meeting room or common room.

If the tower came under attack, red flashy lights and sirens could go off.

So that's it - pod docking with a tower, and a corp common room, accessible from the currently locked CQ door.

Regards,

Apollo.

This would be a cool implementation for stations with offices in-general. Imagine all 12308 characters of Test in one room massive conference room with BoodaBooda Addressing them Lol

The opening scene from the movie Patton just flashed into my mind... lol

So, you're a bounty hunter. No, that ain't it at all. Then what are you? I'm a bounty hunter.

... and the ship balance, weapons balance, SOV mechanic changes, mining changes, moon mining removal/changes, cap ship balance, full dust integration.... I've probably missed a few Blink

But I would love to see this in the game. Whilst I understand that there are a lot of other things that needs to be done with the FiS features I do wish another 100,000 accounts would get subbed up so CCP could afford to get a few people working exclusively on WiS (or WiP if you prefer) without it detrimentally affecting the work being done on the space side.

Love this idea! Also a great way to bring the Corp together
and with the interior future updates can be implemented Pirate

Et tu, Capsuleer?
