Feature Request:

- Allow us to start multiple votes to lock/unlock BPOs if multiple BPOs are selected when a vote to lock/unlock is initiated.
- Allow us to register multiple votes simultaneously if multiple open votes are selected when a yes/no vote is cast.
- Allow us to put multiple passed votes into effect simultaneously if multiple passed votes are selected before issuing command.

This request would address the issue of wanting to move offices, but being unable to because you've managed to lock down some 800+ BPOs over the years and don't want to get carpal tunnel going through the 2400+ mouse clicks (and miles of scroll wheel usage) currently required to unlock them all prior to unrenting the office in question.

Wallet Balance [ALT-W]

Corp Balance
99,999,999,999.00

How hard can it be?


Umm...

SuperSpy00bob and I suggested that exact thing on page 3, and we already got a dev response in this thread that they'd look at it, and try to make it happen. Prob. not in time for the expansion though. It's... a few posts prior to yours.

I'm so angry. CCP is fixing all the bugs we've been yelling about for years. Omigott, is there going to be anything to complain about? You CCP guys are the worst!

Seriously though, great job!! Now my fingers won't fall off clicking on tons of windows just to find out the obvious stuff. Now tell us the truth, whom did you hire (or fire) to get your heads on straight? Lol

I think it would be really helpful to list the payout value next to the insurance level, even for uninsured.

The corporation wallet tooltip definitely shouldn't replace the personal one, it should instead be an option to show BOTH personal and corporation. Being able to see the corp wallet balance at a glance will come in very handy, but not at the expense of being able to see my own.


So very much this. I'd imagine the average person who cares about their personnel wallet and corp wallet don't really give a rip about their AUR balance.

It's a meh'ish change, I guess, for corp alts... or people who just use the corp wallet as their own, but couldn't you remove the useless AUR hint and make it list personnel + corp?

Wallet Balance [ALT-W]
ISK amount
Corp Balance
ISK amount

A change like that would take the same four lines, and be vastly more useful to most everyone.


or just display the whole thing? corp, personal and aur... then everybody should be happy (right there's no such thingP)


Very very very very much this.

Honestly I was just hoping for a quick and dirty fix, but yours would work wonders as well.

These improvements to the UI are decent but one I would love to see in the future is a little love for the nearly impossible to click overheat button. Just a TINY bit of enlargement would be go a very long way. Here is a small example that I threw together with my astounding Photoshop Paint skills.

You need to get Greyscale to run PI everyday for a few months.

I also noticed when the Corp gets an EveMail that a bill is due, they also get an EveMail when the bill is paid.

I, too, would really like "# AUR" removed from the wallet hint, and if possible replaced by corp wallet if visible to that character.

Any room for one more in there? Big smile

I actually had stopped thinking about it until I read the devblog. Then I realized I do it so often and have done it for so long, that I now automaticly get rid of it without even thinking about doing it. A little thing, but one of many little improvements, that make things go just a bit more smoothly.

Thanks for your hard work.

Is there nobody else that wants this? Hmm. Nobody else that senses some tingling in their ocd sense when you see "Magnetic field stabilizer II, Magnetic field stabilizer II, Magnetic field stabilizer II, Magnetic field stabilizer II (8)...... in their items?


I'll tell Soundwave about this, he's been gathering more little things in a little things forum thread Smile



yes id very much like to accidentally hit that and repackage 7 or 8 of my 140 items in station.... along with the 3 cargo containers containing 200+ BM's each in them....

... would be glorious waiting an absolute age to see them load up one at a time cause i miss clicked trying to resize the window.

Since your improving some of the skill book aspects of the game, can you also make it to where you can see, pause, and resume the currently training skill on the jump clone page of the character sheet? I find it terribly aggravating having to switch back and forth for one clone jump.

QFT

although, I think they were going to change that at some point, where initiating a clone jump would automatically do all of those things for you. Maybe I'm wrong? If they aren't planning to do that - they should.

Why you no care?

I'm not one to pick at positive improvements, and I really like the world map staying minimized, but the rest of that post I really couldn't get excited about. Seemed kinda half inspired... Like seeing the corp wallet, so now I can toggle personal or corp wallet when I hover over my wallet; why not toggle to show both or just personel? Cause I'm guessing that I'm always gonna want to see my personal wallet when I see it go flashy.
Maybe I'm just being Devil's advocate here, but how long did those little things take? Cause Team Papercuts made a Ton of really cool and needed Fixes in 3 weeks... And that Bar is set pretty high, and by the looks of it, you just used a popsicle stick to jump with. *shrug* just saying.

Cause like me, some people don't have an hour or so to read through all the comments. We read the blog, skim first page of comments to get initial response for the obvious... Don't see our concern, we reply our opinion. Some bloggers understand the TLDR, and a sharp blogger would have had CCP Guard edit and update the OP with something new you are addressing or updating for such concerns.

Btw, Passive aggressive still comes off bad to your clients.
