Suggestion: Implement an "Align ship to current camera view" keyboard shortcut

I think this would make manual piloting much more comfortable.

After all, designating a 3D direction by double-clicking on a 2D screen isn't very intuitive (at least it wasn't for me at first). You can currently achieve the same effect as my suggestion by facing the camera to your desired direction and then clicking on the center-ish of the screen, but instead of constantly having to double-click, having a nice shortcut for it would make manual piloting much more elegant.

Suggestion: Make it possible to contract your wrecks to another player for salvaging, to decrease ninja looting - especially if salvaging yellow wrecks becomes a suspect offense.

Suggestion: The ships, as depicted, are pretty huge. with lot of windows implying that crew are elements of the ship. I suggest that this be explored in some way, possibly with kill rates (when the ship is damaged). Maybe even make the training and keeping of experienced crew worth while in some way. I guess this would be adding a couple layers of micro-NPCs to the mix, but it would be cool if you knew that in the last fight you lost 20 crew members, etc). It might also add an economic factor in terms of having to pay your crews, replace them, hire on the best/most skilled ones etc (for whatever micro advantage that might grant). It would also add story-stress in terms of not wanting to lose advanced crews, or crew members that have become veterans of your ship.

Suggestion: Allow players to select to play an alert for each category of message that pops up during play.
Keywords: UI, Sounds

Suggestion: Add ingame "Production Planner" windown as drop-down option of right-click menu for Blueprint
Keywords: UI, Industry, Recearch

Notes: Replace all excel calculators with EVE ingame window in style of Killmail window, which allows to enter desired quantity and Could show you all Product Materials tree already summed up, with "V" check on materials which are present in hangar (so there will be no need each time to re-start the job to see the missing materials) , and take component/module bpos which needed for certain bpo propduction, allow check/input from certain crop hangar.

Suggestion: Make making safes less of a chore.
Keywords: Bookmarks, UI
Note: Safes are a major part of the game and they are mentioned nowhere in game and they are tedious to create. Having better UI management of them and making them a little faster to make would go a long way.

Suggestion: Show previews for PE/ME/Copy/Invention when starting jobs. Smarter UI.
Keywords: UI, Industry
Note: I would like a revamp of the blueprint screens that negates my need for third party software. When I choose to improve the stats of a blueprint it should show the old stats and the new stats with the changed stats highlighted. Then for the thing I am changing I would love a slider and for ME, a mark where I am getting perfect refine. And a mark at 30d or the max length for research.

Suggestion: add all in corp to watch list (war targets)
Keywords: UI, war
Notes: once you get war decked or you wardec a corp, give the CEO and ONLY the CEO the option to add all members of the war to a war login watch list for corp/alliance. It shows up when they log in/log off and when they are on (except its corp, the individual doesn't have to manage the 200 to 2000 war targets, its done automatically by the CEO. When war over, it is removed. This can be enabled or disabled by the CEO.

Suggestion: increase compression value of ice by 35 to 50%. Adjust the rorqual to allow more ice compression.
Keywords: ice, mining, compression, rorqual.
Notes: compressing ice in a rorqual is quite a huge waste of time. Edit it so its less of a pain.

Suggestion: put the cop light back on the navy comet. Add a siren (activates when you target someone).
Keywords: Navy Comet, NYPD, LAPD, Pull Over
