EVE General Discussion

There was a post in a previous thread about having the meta number of the module where the tech 2/faction, etc. symbol is.

I thought that seemed like a good idea, would really make sorting stuff out a lot easier.

Your idea for Tabbed personal hangers is a fantastic one. I myself have a bunch of station containers all labelled for different things - Items to sell, Ship equipment, Ammo Etc. if I could create tabs on the station hanger instead of using dozens of containers I would be very very happy.

Packaged items ?

What's the difference between a non-damaged, non-packaged item, and a packaged item ?

Actually, the question is "Why is there a packaged status for all items ? Is it a technical issue ? If yes, is it fixable ?"

Another quite important thing regarding inventory :

When it comes to tidying our stuff in separate containers (One for Mission loots, one for T2 stuff, one for faction stuff, one for ammo and so on), why is there a "locked" status ? I mean, It's my personal hangar, I don't see why I should unlock or lock my items in a container. This alone makes tidying with containers annoying :(

Also, this is a bug, you guys might want to fix it :

Let's say you have 20k fuel in your fuel bay (3k m3 fuel bay on a carrier, 20k fuel means it's full of fuel).

Since I don't use my carrier every now and then, I don't know if it's really a problem that occur often, but it happened to me twice already : When I try to create another stack of fuel (Let's say I want to split my 20k stack in two), it says something like "You can't because the destination container.....", basically, it says "It's full". But I just wanted to split 20k in two stacks of 10k :(

That, and a fix to used lasers, you know, the ones who are constantly filling up the upper part of your hangar...

Laggy forums are laggy.

I am too self-important to search for this, so:

The ability to repackage modules in CHAs. I have 9 of the same module in single stacks and I am literally ready to go nuke iceland (in Eve, by going through the Eve gate) if this doesn't get fixed. It's ridiculous that we cannot repackage and stack healthy items in wormholes. NUISANCE FACTOR should not be part of the difficulty of it.

Edit: If this is already coming, then good. If not...nukes.

-A little bar on the icon showing how damaged the item is. Useful for crystals and normal modules.
-Colour coding items
-Making an item 'sticky'. It stays at the top of your hangar, sorted along with other sticky items. A little symbol/colour to differentiate stickied items.
-Clicking and dragging an item to the top or bottom of your hangar window scrolls the window up or down
-'Sell queue'. Right click > sell on a selection of multiple items. The selling window for each item pops up one after the other.
-Double click on item in hangar to fit/reload/put in drone bay.

This. Or at the very least, the assets window separating ships from the rest of your junk.

Something else for the assets I've been wishing for years, is a way to label individual stations that tells me Station A is an ammo dump for this or that purpose, or I'm selling this or that mod here. In the past I used station cans for this purpose because they list at the top.

One of the recurring tasks I do is "collect loot".

Mission loot:

- I have a bunch of "good loot" that I want to sell
- I have a bunch of "bad loot" that I want to reprocess

I'd like an easy way to tell those apart. The absolutely most awesomest thing would be a column in cans/hangars that shows the current market average for the item, but that's maybe a bit heavy on resources. The second best was how it used to work:

- I had a can with "bad loot" in it, in "icon" mode.
- When I got new loot, I dropped it into the "bad loot" can. All the new loot showed up at the bottom of the list.
- I hit "stack all". Of all the new loot items, those who already had a stack in the can were moved "up". At the bottom of the list, only those items of the "new stuff" remained that were truly new.
- Then I could check the "truly new" stuff and put the expensive items into the "to sell" can, and leave the bad stuff in the old can.
- If I want to reprocess, I can take everything out of the "bad loot" can except for 1 item per stack.

This was a very handy loot sorting procedure that got made obsolete by the "setification" (and the subsequent "sort-on-stack-all") of the inventory system. Something that helps with this would be really appreciated. :-)


Other ideas:

- Have the "search as you type" box also search group/category names
- Make it possibly to "repair", "repackage" and "reprocess" inside cans
- Make it possible to manage cans remotely: Look into them, search them, put stuff into them (like the remote "deliver to" option), take stuff out of them (this would actually be huge, we have a few offices just because we need regular remote usability for items, adding a lot of annoying "move stuff between offices" once or twice a week)
- Make it possible to set can names in a corp hangar if you can take them out



Thanks for looking into this stuff :-)

Add this with the ability to mount a saved ship fitting with items stored in containers.

Yeah the code in charge of stacking stuff in hangars- specifically fuel hangars for capital ships or corp hangars for Orcas needs work. I don't know how often I try to drag stuff to a fuel/corp hangar only to be told that there's not enough room, and please pull out your calculator to do the math to figure out exactly how many items I'm allowed to move because the game is too lazy to do it for me. Also - restacking things in a nearly full hangar is a PITA. I realize you need code to prevent accidental duplication of items, etc, but as you approach the "full" limit of a hangar it no longer becomes possible to auto-stack things.
