hm i guess topic says it all
what about haveing their locations always in your warpable spots as long they are in space?
this would esp. make life easier you could never loose your home or just drop a looting unit in vevery mission room without adding (and later deleting) a bookmark for every room.
it does make sense for the siphon unit too.
i dont know about the cyno jammer.

@ccp is there any design reason why you chose not to do it?
(i only can think of why you have not done it for containers, because there could be a lot of em and it could get confusing)

any thoughts?

Yes I have thought...don't be lazy and don't be stupid!

Bookmark it yourself or lose it. Simple. This is along the lines of "I forgot to recall my drones now I have to buy more". Good! The market will flourish and should not be assisted by an auto-recall of drones in warp. It just doesn't fit.

The auto recall of probes should be scrapped as that is just allowing stupidity. Forget your probes and you deserve to be lost in a WH if you also forgot spares\to bookmark the exit when you jumped in there.

If you drop it you should remember where you left it or you obviously didn't want it.

Wouldn't they show up in your "assets in space" overview part of the assets?

Enabling a warp to function on that would definately be sufficient.

in my kind of view its a bit diffrent than the drone situation.

i dont have a problem with setting bookmarks its more about deleeting them is annoying work
i would be happy if you could trow a bookmark at them which deletes itself after you scoop up the structure.
then you would get punished for forgeting about it
but not be punished by annoying clean up work if you set one.

Now I could get behind that. Not sure if this is how it works for POS's but maybe a Tab in Assets called "Assets in Space" possibly linked to the F10 Map that shows "Property" under:

F10 -
.........World Map Control Panel
...................Star Map
.............................My Information
.....................................Property

Not sure what is displayed in there normally but seems to be the right place or something like that?
