You guys should work full-time on EVE. I've been waiting on some of these features for years now, glad to hear they're finally on their way! :D

Awesome job guys!

And what-kind of greedy, eve-player would I be without asking for my own special fix to something that bothers me?

You know how when you're in the middle of a mission, rocking-away, blowing-up those nasty rats, getting shot-at, and those little dmg reports come popping-up in the middle of your screen?

They're kinda in the way, and they don't last long-enough to even see what kind-of dmg you're doing most of the time (especially if there are lots of rats shooting-at you).

How hard would it be to make the dmg reports have thier own window, and remain as a scrollable list, so you can look through and see what kind-of changes there are too your dmg as you change direction, range, ammo, TC scripts, speed, etc.?
If you wanted to get really slick with-it, you could insert a "break" between shots when you change-stuff, that tells you what changed so you could compare the dmg diff when changing stuff. You could also separate the incoming dmg, and changes (turning-on/off hardeners etc) into it's own tab/window. This way you could select which reports you see, or close them all-out if you just don't care.

we already have this: accessories -> log keeps track of all notification events

Wonderful, thank you Team Papercuts!

Especially like the "Approach and Open Cargo"-thing. A godsend for salvagers without a Noctis.

Many of those small changes are more valuable than those bigger ones.

Jump Bridges: When we already see those bridges on the map, why not implementing a warp-to bridge command?

"You’ll also find that when your ship is forced to make an emergency warp, your drones will attempt to return to the drone bay before you take off. Hopefully this can save you a few drones when your cat walks across the power strip."

I hope they don't return if you are scrambled and hit the warp button. Do they re-engeage if you are scrambled in midwarp and the drones are on the way back?


When he says "emergency warp" he's refering to what happens when you get disconnected from the game. Not what YOU initiate when you realize you're in over your head and need to GTFO.

Make sense?

Since you guys are doing quick & easy fixes, any chance you can add a "Split in to stacks of ___" option to the right click context menu? I would love to split my stacks of stuff (ammo, PI, fuel, etc) as needed without developing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

...my awesom idea that has apparently already been implemented...

We do?!
I feel dumb!
I'm at work now, but I will have to check this-out later.

I was thinking to myself as I was writing that post;
"How awesome would it be if we already had this, and I just didn't know about-it?"

Been playing for over 3 years now...
How is-it I didn't know about this? LOL!
