Hello All,
i'm involved mainly in Trade & Industry job in this game.
Would appreciate if CCP Team take in consideration that to do well this complex job, normally
most players use a LOT of third party tools to check Prices, avaiability of minerals and components in distant
markets and to simulate industry/invention jobs.

First of All: why do not introduce a new advanced Skill to check prices to near Regions? Every level can check
better inside the confining regions in terms of jumps. This will help a lot Traders and mineral/component buyers

Second: Why do not activate a delivery service for goods with an additional fee for jump/distance and a reasonable time to deliver? This would help Industry players to plan better jobs ad new players to start early in their career because they dont need to hauling the goods themselves if they do not need them in a hurry.

Thank you for the reply,

I KNOW that there are third party (non CCP) services around, but i think that
those features could be integrated into the game to have a complete and better experience.

Eve Central data are not so often updated (it depends on the users).
Hauling by third party (and not by eve automation) are very fast, but not do convenient. A Bot Hauling could be slower but
more economic.

Price Checking I don't care much about but a bot hauling service I would have to say would be terrible idea. The game is player driven. CCP seems to want to make it more so not less.
