EVE General Discussion

here's times when you REALLY want another slot somewhere, so the idea behind this is at a station service you have the option to gain and assign an additional slot anywhere on your ship, however....
The trade off is you HAVE to sacrifice 2 slots somewhere else to do so, ideas to keep this reasonable balanced, ie you have to make a sacrifice to make a gain.

Secondly:
T3's one idea I've had for fozzi's rebalance is the subs gives you a total number of slots, however you assign where you want them (to a max of 6 in highs, 8 in mids/lows) this allows players to CHOOSE where they want the slots not have slot positions determined by the subs, Idea is to make T3's more flexable in gerneral terms and allow players to have a choice how their T3's are loaded out.
The other idea is add extra subs allowing tank types not usualy associated with that pertic race, IE tengus being able to be armour tanked and getting bonuses off the subs, legions/proteus being able to shield tank effectively etc, but the alternative tank type should NOT be quite as good as the others, ie tengu armour tank subs slightly worse either on EHP slightly than say a armour fit proteus or legion, or slightly worse resists on armour etc.
however extra slots on a T3 does NOT translate into extra weapon slots, as always the max weapon slots avail in the highs should be 6 dependant on subs fitted.

Lastly and not least:

PIRATE FACTION T3'S :)
(plus drone faction T3 :)
Can not see the pirate factions allowing themselves to get behind technology wise to the empires, plus given the ready availability of standard T3's currently not like they can not get hold of to mod etc :)
obliously just like pirate faction ships in general should require the dual skills with normal T3's same as the pirate ships require gall/min cald/amarr etc, IE gall/min stratigic cruiser, amarr/cald strategic cruiser.
The invention and manufacture of these would require pirate faction data cores, along with the normal invention phase associated with T3 production.
Personaly I'd say put these in high,low and nullsec radar sites and DO NOT add them to the pirate factions LP stores, this will give people even more incentive to go hunting radar sites in all sec space.

Info Window - Fix Alignment of Tabs

Give all players a bio tab, whether or not it is empty. Not having tabs consistently aligned messes with comparison for any items with different numbers of tabs in the info window.

Idea/Fix is to make all the character info tabs be consistently coded by programmers. Currently, selecting info for any item with 6 info cells, then another item with 5 or 7 info cells changes which info tab you have selected.

Example: a player without a bio has 5 tabs. I will refer to this player as Player A. Char info for Player A > click tab # 3 selects Employment History. [All 5 tabs are: Description, Notes, Employment History, Decorations, and Standings]
Next, a player with a bio has 6 tabs. I will refer to this player as Player B. Char info for Player B > click tab # 4 selects Employment History. [All 6 tabs are: Bio, Description, Notes, Employment History, Decorations, and Standings]
Left-clicks on successive character names in chat brings up character info on each char, but if you want to compare the players by bio, notes, employment history, decorations, or standings/etc... an additional click is often required to match up the correct tab of players with a bio to the players without a bio.

Currently, the system seems to be based on the total number of tabs. Select an item/player with 5 tabs, do info and click the 5th tab. then do info on a blueprint with 2 tabs. The last available tab or the 2nd tab is selected. Now, do info on an item/player with 5 tabs again. The 2nd tab is selcted now.

Do info on a player without a bio and select the 5th tab (Standings). Then do info on a player with 6 tabs. The 5th tab (Decorations) is selected.


Simple fix: give all players a bio tab on char info. If those players want it empty, so be it they will have an empty bio.

Change fleet invites so they work when about to take a star gate.

Don't have chat/fleet invites steal focus so you can't close them by accident.

Remote stacking/splitting of items.

Option to automatically sort the locked targets list based on tags.

Remove the 2 week limit on repackaging a station container.

Option to sort the standings list in the character sheet by name instead of modified standing.

Rigs on T3 defensive systems, have the rigs attached to the sub so when you swap subs it doesn't destroy the rigs mearly removes them along with the sub, so you can fit diff defensive subs with diff types of rigs, ie augmented shields/armour sub has T2 shield/armour rigs on you say swap the armour sub for a sub increasing reppers and have the ideal rig setup you choose earlier already on there, this saves wasting rigs when changing subs etc on T3s

Suggestion: Ability to drag contacts group and drop into inventory as a single "Address book" object (and move it back to contracts list)
Keywords: user interface, contacts, inventory
Note: The main reason is to provide the ability for the pilots to share, sell, and distribute contact lists. For example, send "corp executives list" to new corporation members. And, of course, share the blocked lists between players (or sell "anti local spam" lists).

Suggestion: Put additional information about incoming/outgoing damage into combat log for after-fight analysis
Keywords: user interface, logs, guns
Note: Add a separate tab in "Notifications and Log" window. Store the messages currently shown on-screen there (even if log window is closed) and provide additional information there - distance, relative speed, angular speed. Put each value (timestamp, in/out, weapon, damage, distance, etc) into a separate column so the pilot can copy (or export) this data after combat for analysis. This should be especially useful for newbie pvp pilots (corps, fw) fighting solo/small gangs to evaluate and improve their combat performance.

Suggestion: Add optional column for current market price to compare tool
Keywords: Compare Tool, UI
Note: Could be the same price as shown for items in the inventory

Suggestion: Players with Security Status -5 and lower should have red color in the local chat
Keywords: UI, Local Chat, Security Status

Suggestion: Update Survey Scanners
Keywords: Modules, Mining, Industry, Everyone
Note: See https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=3119416#post3119416 for a complete explanation of this improvement.
