This is a good idea and should be implemented as soon as possible.

For my serious reply, I will say that anything that gives us more options for organizing our things gets a +1 from me.

This is a great idea. May i suggest we call it "bubble wrapping" for marketing reasons? I like bubble wrap.

Sounds like a good idea, +1 !

It should however come with a mini-game of popping bubble wraps. This would be a good alternative to ship-spinning.

That's only tangentially connected to a better UI solution for creating plastic wrap. I don't have any stake in that mechanic, so I'd recommend making a separate thread about it.

This seems way too logical, simple, and easy.

I'd get a lot of use out of it for separating stuff out in station inventory. You can't put containers in containers, so this would be a nice way to split out stuff that's not used often.

It could also be used for prepackaged kits. Need a PvP ship, spare ammo, drones, and alternate fittings? Package it all up in one nice bundle. Have a "Welcome to the Corporation!" gift basket you give out to new members? Make up 20 of them and give them out as needed.

I don't always do logistics, but when I do, I want to bubble wrap all the things

+1, and another +1 if we can pop the bubbles

Let me sneak this in here, crosspost from little things thread;

***

Suggestion: Make special plastic wraps

Keywords: CoCo, Courier, Enablers, PlasticWrap

Note: Make it possible to ship Ores, "ammo types" or 'Special Bay' groups in special contracts. Make it so that they get a wrap of one of the special hold types. Since we have now special bays in Transport Ships, transporters should be able to utilize them (and it would give a reason to train racial industry to V again).

Such a wrap could be shipped in the special bay type of the sort chosen or in a general freight area. I could image that the special wraps would all have a different color, to make it easier for the transport organisations in EVE. Just limit the max. size of the contracts based on the maximum volumes of the volume bays.

Ah hell yes, why not.

I'd say make it an NPC seeded item to start with from each of the Empires main Courier\Hauling corporations (I've read EVE Source, they exist!) and this will add an ISK sink in as well. Not too expensive but not dirt cheap either.

Eventually add this as a schematic or something to PI or a BPO that uses PI goods and voila, another thing to make, build, sell.

That is exactly the kind of overhead I want to get rid of. I didn't make this thread to make logistics more tedious.

I like this idea. It might make most freight containers obsolete though. Why use a set of 50k cans that you only fill part way to separate items for different clients when you can custom wrap them.
