All is dandy and good, some things I don't agree with, but I can see them being beneficial and I've come to terms with.

What I just can't stand is the goddamn sensor overlay. It is inconvenient for someone who doesn't want to scan in that precise moment.

inb4 ":\*.*"

I don't want the overlay gone. Nope, don't want it gone. When I do want to scan, I will admit that it serves it's purpose. The problem starts when it just want to move from point A to point B, and I have to wait for the stupid anoms to disperse, before i can rotate my camera for whatever the hell I'm doing.
I get it. This is the exploration themed patch, but would it kill anyone to implement a toggle option? Because if it does, I'd gladly do it. I'm ok if you make the default state as enabled, for your new slaves customers to drool over. I'm fine with it. I just want to be able to turn it off, and leave it off. It seriously can't be that hard.

This is as nice as I get. Best quote ever https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4137165#post4137165

You know....

You can switch it off...

It is on that actual sensor button... Mine does not scan unless I select it to.

Do tell. Every time I jump, it's on. It cycles, then after 30 secs or so, it disappears. Do tell how I stop it from turning on all together after every jump.

really, one cycle every session change is really that much of a problem?

just contract me your stuff and don't let the door hit you on the way out.

You can go back to the corner you came out of.

I can jump/warp etc just fine immediately after jumping into a new system. I can move my camera just fine.
What exactly is the problem you are having with the sensor overlay, or does just having icons on the screen offend you?
Because the problem you are complaining about doesn't seem to actually exist for me, so I'm confused.

OP he is right though you can turn it off, the button by the scan button, at the bottom

It still scans once on session change, regardless on if you turn it off or not.

Sensor overlay icons are now always disabled during the initial sweep. No no labels are shown and the center is hollow until the sweep completes. When the sweep completes the icons now become interactable and the labels are shown if sensor overlay is active otherwise the icons are removed.


Should have read all the way to the bottom before complaining, since they did pretty much what you asked for already.

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

This makes no sense.

There should be no need to wait for anything on screen to disperse and you should have
full control over your ship as soon as you reach the system you've jumped to.


Please explain in more detail.

It's actually quite a cozy, comfy spot.
