Guys if you could provide Wormhole wobble video that would be appreciated!! Can not do it myself in Iceland.

Ability to set expiration times on corp bookmarks. (IE in 24/36/48 hours this bookmark auto deletes itself)

A less clunky/prone to derpness system for transferring bookmarks.

Less/lag time in-between corpmates making bookmarks and them showing up.

Ability to keep separate the probe scanning interface and D-scanning interface would be fantastic for us scouts.

Ability to have the solar system map show location pings for broadcasts sent out from people in fleet would be fantastic!

Alliance level CHA improvements.

Dear Chitsa,

For Christmas I'd like a C6 Pulsar with a C6 static. It'd need at least 40+ moons and half decent planets for the army of PI alts.

Also, I'd like POS' and WH wobble fixed.

If you can make any of these happens I promise i'll get my whole corp to go to one of your null fleet things.

Lots of ♥

Purple wormhole, purple wormhole, purple wormhole, purple wormhole.

I'd like to live in a purple wormhole, we should bring in purple wormholes.

and lets not fix the POS's Winthrop's posts regarding them being broken makes me smile to much to have them fixed.

I am so blown away that you need us to record the wobble effect to show CCP.

I am not sure what disturbes me more, is it that they clearly dont read any of the bug reports, threads about it, it hasnt been mentioned to them by either WH CSM's in any discutions untill now....... Wow just wow.

Or it could be that they need you to provide them with a video of it to show them game developers how to stage two a WH then click warp that disturbes me more.

So much stupid right there that i am doubtful the CSM or CCP can eve get a pos overhaul done.

The wobble bug, bookmarks and POSes should be priority. Fixes before new content.

From this thread I bring you footage of the wormhole wobble - Please Fix it fix it fix it ;)
Also, CCP should request to get google and youtube opened for the Icelandic people.. Must be terrible to live up there without such features :p

Help in order to repo?

You only need two of those useless "devs", have one wait at the wh, and the other warp to the wh bookmark from lets say the sun.

It aint rocket science. If they need help to reproduce this they might need to look for someone who pays them for standing in a corner or something.

Will a personal password be implemented for SMA's?

Something like we have currently for forcefield passwords. Currently to access a POS if you are out of alliance/corporation, you have to rightclick your capacitor and set a starbase password (1234, etc etc). Couldn't a 2nd password field be created (lets call it, your personal access code). You set it, and every ship/thing you own gets that password. As eve currently tracks everything you own, the addition of a personal passcode should not be so damming to the database that it would crush it. (Basically its how an audit log container works, but modified).

For instance, I own 3 ships, I have 2 in a SMA in space, and I'm in one. I set my personal passcode to 3431 or something. Everybody who has access to that SMA cannot eject or access my ships unless they have the passcode 3431. Once they do it can be ejected/access/taken/flown/etc. This can be bypassed by roles (if you have director + status, you can access/eject as needed (sometimes stuff has to be moved around)).

Audit containers can be changed from right-clicking and putting in a password to accessing based on a personal access code (so if you have it, you can access the container without having to put in a password). The container being linked to you, updates itself whenever you change your passcode (Lets say you give it out to someone to go remove something from your container, once they have it, you rightclick your capacitor, change your personal access code, and everything you own in a audit type container becomes locked again. As the passcode is linked to the character, just as containers floating in space, there is no need to keep a database of hundreds of different passwords per floating container anymore, as now its linked directly to the character, and not on a per "container" base.

So basically everybody in eve get a random combination lock (I'd probably make it a random 8 number generated code, where the person merely has to press 1 button to generate another random code. All there stuff is locked to that combination. All there ships in a SMA is locked to that combo, and there is less general fear of ships being stolen/lost without permission.

As the code is random and linked to the account, they have ZERO need to actually Remember the passcode. All they have to do is rightclick capacitor and click "show personal access code", then send it to a person they trust. Once done, click "change personal access code", a new one is generated, the old one doesn't work, you have zero need to remember the new one, as it auto opens everything you own. People could probably add in a new number code as they see fit (to share stuff between alts if they need to).

There's no new module that needs to be created, just the audit security system being changed, and all ships being locked through that passcode.

If that is successful, it could be expanded.

As for Hangers, research labs, etc etc. This can be expanded by making an audit container that is tracked when its put into a hanger, research lab, etc. It can even be named as the persons name (Phoenix Jones Audit Container). If I have the personal passcode or I am Phoenix Jones, I can access it. If I don't AND I am not phoenix jones, I cannot. The stuff inside does not need to be tracked, just the container itself.

It is a really rough idea I thought up right now, but people are still somewhat concerned regarding keeping their personal assets... well personal, least when it involves sma's, cha's, wormhole space and pos's.

This could be expanded to k-space too. Can give people access to arrays without having to worry about theft of stuff as the items would be locked in a container through the personal code.

Like I said just a napkin idea. We always seem to ask about personal sma's and security, but with no real idea that would not involve a massive rewrite of the pos code or something.

Yaay!!!!

Another vote for fleet bookmarks, alliance bookmarks.
And of course POS's

For wormhole wobble, easy to repro.

Find a wormhole, anywormhole, easiest find a Z971 in high sec, preferably fresh. Take 2 people in cruiser size ships with cloak Person A sitting at the hole cloaked up.
Person B elsewhere in the system. Person B Warp to hole at 10 so as not to decloak.
The person A sitting at the hole should see or hear nothing. This is working fine. He has no idea anyone just warped to him on grid.

Ok both cruisers go into Z971 and then imediately back out. This should put the hole at half way.

Person A sitting at the hole cloaked up.
Person B elsewhere in the system. Person B Warp to hole at 10 so as not to decloak.
The person sitting at the hole will hear an audible wobble and see a wobble as well the exact instant Person B initiates warp. You will get a distinct wobble for each warp initiates so if there is a fleet somewhere and the squad leader clicks warp squad to grid somewhere the hole is at. You get a wobble for each ship.
Person A now knows someone and how many someone just initiated warp to him. Even if they are cloaked up.

Wobble behavior was introduced in Rubicon.

I only use the Z971 as example because it has the least mass and easiest to get half. However All wormholes have been acting this way. Once past half they take on this wobble effect, you can see it on crit as well. Only time you do not see hole wobble is when hole is above half. Works on both sides of the hole. Works on all W-space wormhole. Not sure if it works on k-space to Kspace wormholes but I assume so.

Just a quick update guys. Summit is over. I have asked most of the questions you wanted to. I can not provide direct no or yes answers yet. But some questions sparked honest interest among devs. I am still going to staying in Iceland until sunday so let me know via evemail if you have something special you would like to be forwarded. I will probably will not be able to respond to your eve mails but i will read them.
