To answer that question, you will need the Exploding Hand Grenade of Antioch... 1...2.....4!

3 sir!
That depends, are we talking about an African or a European duck?
We are talking about European CCP karkur... and probably an American swallow.

I'm a little slow to post, but I just want to say Karkur, you are my favorite.

You all realize the term "witch" is used for both sexes?

Wormhole dwellers have been trying to figure out how the UI sorted the damn BM folders for years!
I can confirm all attempts where futile though, and when we though we had it figured out the sorting magically changed again (obviously the sleepers where behind it).

CCP Karkur, you put to rest one of the mysteries of WH space and for that we applaud you!!

Great set of changes! Keep them coming! Big smile

Nice changes.
I saw no mention and have not been able to try it out yet but am hoping the new "watch list" option for assigning drones carries over for assigning fighters ? If it does, thank you, if it doesn't can it.

Haven't read all 6 pages but...

Could you please allow the "assist" mechanic to work with drone boats? Correct me if I'm wrong but at the moment, drones assisting a third party will only attack a target being hit by guns. I would like one of my dual-boxing sentry Domis to be able to assist the other...

Pro-tip: any offensive module will do, target painter is perfect for the job.

First CCP, Good Job on these changes!

Since this thread appears to be about links and drag and drop options and other UI things, I wanted to point out some fail links. Currently you have to know some programing codes and do a dance and jump around. Have to type a code and copy/paste into eve mail composition to link then drag to chat or notepad.

We need to be able to link all NEOCOM items, buttons, etc . to chat, eve mail, notepad. Some of these NEOCOM items I want to link search perimeters such as for Agent Finder. Newbies always need this information and I currently have them read my bio. Even many of you oldies still do not know how to use the Agent Finder to see how many jumps and in what direction (Show on Map).

Look Where in ESC menu?? See this Link.

We need to be able to link Chat Channels into Chat, eve mail, notepad.

Drag and drop Objects in space. Such as stations, I want to link stations with right click in space and show info to allow someone to warp to linked station. and not get the generic station information. (hate having to dock to get this link or to have to type it out.) Drag and drop would be nice too.

I have wanted to link Jump Gates and have warp to options for it. (or any object in space so others can warp to it from chat.)

Drag and Drop Bookmarks from People& Places to Chat, Notepad or eve mail.
Thumbs up for Proddy ScunPost #54.

Copy and paste or drag and drop select multi Show info details.


Example (Added Spaces to allow Post to form):
To link Incursions I have to type out and copy/paste into eve mail to link:
< url=localsvc:service=journal&method=ShowIncursionTab&constellationID=20000444&open=1>Incursion Profile< / url >

To link SOV:
< url=localsvc:service=sov&method=GetSovOverview>Unclaimed.< / url >

To link Chat Channels:
< url=joinChannel:-2//>< / url >< / url >Help< / url >
< url=joinChannel:-100//>< / url>< / url>E-UNI< / url >

Note: These Links to chat channels do not allow you to join a channel you do not have access to, such as another corp, alliances or channels you are blocked from and you still have to type in passwords for passworded channels.

Speaking of UI changes how about:

Another issue I have with the IGB is the history can not be sorted by date of last visit. Many times I do not know name of website I visited but know it was recent or about a certain date

Want to see the U-tube training video… External browser!?! Make it work in the IGB.

I agree with Yonis Kador on Post #45

I agree with Unezka Turigahl about adding right click option directly to watch list to have my drones Guard or Assist that one person I right clicked on. Post #53

Also would be nice to double the size of the watch list to help with large fleets.

Color Coded Broadcast could be useful but customizable for those with Vision issues. Lipbite#48

Would be nice to have Color in Chat Channels but, Customizable for end user to turn off others colors to help those with Vision issues.

***** Increase size of Broadcast Buttons for fleet broadcast, they are WWWAAAAYYYYY tooooo Small.

Clean up the Compare Item to only show Items I want to Compare and not all items variations.

Drag/Dropping from Char Sheet or Skill Queue would be Nice. #9

I agree with being able to see Drone Damage in Drone Bay as per ZebedeeUK#18, Macker Momo#21, matarkhanPost #67 and StarMage Yoma#90

How about since you increased Drone AI for Rats why not increase drone AI for my Drones too. They should Auto Target Scrammers, Webbers, etc. Maybe allow Players to Adjust Drone AI by Priority. I hate that they tend to attack the Triggers Automatically First or Attack a Boss Ship before the rest of room is done. I should be able to Communicate Targets to Drones Directly without having Ship Target first. Those Targeting Jammers or Dampeners get extremely annoying to solo players.

Drones should not stop shooting their Targets when we Warp out. If Drone Link is Broken Drones should be smart enough to continue on their roles and to defend them selves from attackers.

Drones Should Auto Reconnect to Host Ship upon returning to Grid.

Be nice to rename the Drone Groups.

Drag and Drop from BPO / BPC would be nice Elena Thiesant#83

Please Make Stacking of BPCs allowable when they are from the same Batch and ME / PE / RUNS. I hate running into the Container limits on 1,000 items regardless of size of container. Stacked Items are being counted as one item.

Some people with vision issues need Fonts to be 2-3 times bigger as an Option.

Vincent Athena Do you realize Male Witches are called Warlocks?

How about Drag and Dropping Prerequisites, Item or Certificates to training Queue and it Auto Adds skills to end of Queue as long as you have next skill in Item Hanger or Cargo Hold.
