Dear Duchess Punkturis,


Any chance we could get Show Info on Modules to have a Skills Tab, In addition to prerequisites?

e.g. Large Shield Extender
Shield Upgrades

  • Shield Management
  • Shield Operation
  • Shield Upgrades


In addition, any possibility to get Skill Info explicitly state the Module Market Group it affects and synergistic skills?

e.g. Signal Suppression


    Electronic Warfare > Remote Sensor Dampeners
  • Long Distance Jamming
  • Sensor Linking
  • Weapon Disruption


The latter one is clearly a muddier issue to tackle.

Your loyal servant,
Apollo


As someone who hangs out in Help Chat a lot, this would be a FANTASTIC improvement. So many questions on whether this skill or that affects a module... /me shudders

Edit: Oh, and keep up the FANTASTIC work, Duchess :-D Didn't mean to imply that I don't <3 the stuff you've rolled out so far.

I know! it's so annoying, it happens to me all the time and each and every time my wallet flashes I go check if someone was nice enough to give me ISK - but no, neverBlink

I'll see if I can do something about it.


Don't worry, I fixed that.

That you never get any ISK that is ;)

The current changes are great, this would be putting the icing on the cake if someone could add it.

Seriously? You let us replace our personal wallet with corp wallet yet left the ******* aur balance where it is?

Wallet Balance [ALT-W]
99,999,999,999.00
Corp Balance
99,999,999,999.00

How hard can it be?

Edit. Better yet, remove aur completely from the wallet and move it to the NEX store interface where it belongs. That's the only time someone will ever use it... in the NEX store.

Good suggestion Rixiu about the AUR.

One little pet annoyance I have had is when you look at the ship skills - it only states it cannot be trained on trial accounts, it doesn't say how training the skill will improve your ships functionality, either in percentage or specifically.
Can I also mention about the message you get when you are about to dock - getting TOWED ffs. If that were the case - can I SEE a tug come out of the station and tow me in.
If that is to hard too do - how about saying "Hold on while we teleport you into a spare hanger"

Affects immersion for me

I am aware of my own ignorance and have checked my emotional quotient - thanks for asking

I just think nobody else is lazy enough to need 2 right clicks and 2 left clicks changed to a single click and a mostly useless button for something they use very infrequently compared to other changes this team could be working on that irritate more people more often.

also - do you really want to repackage and restack all your organization cans?

maybe the ability to repackage things inside of station containers would be nice....

the spaceship command skills don't have bonus descriptions in them because they don't affect every ship that requires them.

frigate skill does not affect destroyers or cruisers or battlecruisers or battleships or dreads or carriers or supercarriers or titans is the most obvious.

as for towing - i guess the message could be changed easily enough?

I enjoyed all the changes so far.
Altho i got 1 sugestion on the Skill changes, since your puting work in to it Shocked
how about insteed of having the standart messages like 5% per skill.

go like at level 1 this skill will give you 5 % of this
level 2 =10%
level 3 = 15%
level 4 = 20%
level 5 = 25%


i know its not really important but might help new players

More importantly, the ship skills have different effects for different ships. It is not practical to list all of the bonuses that the skill provides, especially not with the cruiser skills. The bonuses for ship skills are described in the correct place: in the ship descriptions.

Perhaps a note could be added to the skill descriptions instructing new players to look at the ship descriptions for the bonuses from the ship skills.

Speaking of help chat don't you ever wish to be able to link tutorials in chat?
