EVE Information Portal

Suggestion: Put bookmarks on the overview and give them brackets
Keywords: UI
Note: Wasn't this already planned? I remember it being in the patch notes a while back and then it got cancelled or something

Suggestion: When anchoring a POS module, show boxes around the other modules as well
Keyword: UI, POS
Note: Having a box around the currently anchoring module is nice, but this should make it a lot easier to see how POS modules can fit together

Suggestion: Bounties deplete first in, first out.
Keywords: bounties
Note: A bounties B for 30 million. C bounties B for 50 million. Once 30 million has been claimed on B, A stops hearing about it.

Suggestion: Reduce jumpclone cooldown by 8 hours
Keywords: clones, neocom

Note: This would mean someone who JC'd at the end of a play session would have the option to relocate again at the beginning of their next session rather than be forced to spend a second session in the same place.

Suggestion: Allow a player to buy off his or her current bounty by paying five times the amount posted
Keywords: Bounties, ISK Sinks
Note: This would let players wipe off a bounty by choosing to immediately pay the same loss amount the bounty is designed to inflict over time.

In return for absorbing the specified 5x loss, the space rich would get to frustrate and annoy whoever placed the bounty, and it would open up some real economic warfare dynamics between those placing and receiving bounties. It also would end the stupidness of everyone and their brother running around with trivial 111,111 ISK bounties forever. There is even a lore justification for it, in that 5x the amount posted is probably enough to bribe the Bounty Big Board Organization or whoever runs this whole thing to look the other way and "lose the paperwork" on your current bounty.

Suggestion: Remove the scrollbar reset in the market window after purchasing an item.
Category: UI
Note: After making a purchase, the item list on the left hand of the market UI jumps back to the top. This is very frustrating when moving through a large list of items, as you have to scroll down to each individual item. More desirable behavior would be to never change the scrollbar position unless the contents of that list have changed.

Suggestion: Lower the warp speed of all ships and remove the acceleration.
Keywords: warp mechanics, warp drive
Note: As it stands, to travel 30AU at normal speed it effectively takes (30s*2+30AU/3AU/s) = 70s and to travel 1AU is (30s*2+1AU/3AU/s) = 61s. Using an art effect and the engine trails, if a ship hits warp instantly, but travels slower, warp distance becomes much more important.

I'm picturing something like Star Wars or Star Trek warping where there's a streak of light off to the destination. While in flight the ship is moving at max velocity, slower, but in theory for about the same amount of time for a reasonable distance, like 0.5AU/s to 1AU/s (assuming 30-60AU is the average warp distance).

A more complex change would be to include allowing a ship to just spool the warp drive and warp without aligning (separating velocity and warp drive) allowing you to maintaining the velocity from before and after warping.

The changes combined would allow a player to land on a grid with no warning, but at the same time, keeping a warp drive spooled you'd have to react very fast to actually warp. There are many options to make it too easy to escape, like having a spooled warp drive require a large capacitor cost or modules not working at peak efficiency.

Suggestion: Add system names to points visible along the auto-pilot route in space, with visible/invisible toggle option.
Keywords: Graphics, Map, Navigation
Note: Integration of system names onto the space we travel through would be more of a visual amenity than a fix for any issues, so is low priority, but it would be nice to have the option to mouse over a star in the sky and see the name of the system.

Suggestion: Store UI settings server-side.
Keywords: UI, Usability
Notes: Having to set up the overview via import/export when moving between machines is a pain.

Suggestion: Allow characters to transfer SP to other characters on an account once a year.
Keywords: Skill Points

Note: As a bitter vet I have a **** ton of SP on my characters making clones very expansive. I'd like to be able to transfer all the non combat skills to a dedicated indy alt instead of having all the combat and indy skills on one char.
