Here is some idea to improve eve experience:

1 - add an option in the HUD to invert position between modules and buttons (so we can have mods on the left side and buttons on the right)

2 - let us see into corp containers through the corp asset windows, exactly like alredy happen with personal assets (if u have the container access role of course)

3 - add a searchbox in the corp blueprint window, the same that is alredy in all other assets viewer windows

4 - add a row into agent info window to show CLEARLY if it's available to u or not, smth like:
AVAILABLE: YES/ NO
if NO is showed another row above should say:
STANDING REQUIREMENTS: x towards corp/faction/god

remove the text "This agent provides missions to any pilot that meets standing requirements" ---> of course! so...?
and pls pls adapt the text lenght to the window size (like happens with chat windows) i'm quite tired to resize each info window to be able to read the text!

5 - let us ask/accept/complete missions remotely at least from few jumps far (maybe through a skill?): quite often the warp/jump time is more than what the mission requires.... and maybe u discover the next mission is in the same system than theprevious one: very annoying! (Original Thread)

6 - direct trade window doesn't remind the size and the position since i started play eve 3 years ago: think it's time to fix it!
same goes for info window

7 - if you're trying to drag and drop some BPCs onto others (drag & drop + stack item) u get an error message saying the item can't be stacked (and that's ok), 1x BPC is correctly moved and the others stay where they were (that's not so ok): i think the warning message is correct but it should do the move anyway

8 - add an option to choose old/new font (maybe make more fonts available?)

9 - pls move the displayed distance of selected object (in space, not in the overview window) to the beginning of text instead of the end like it is actually

There are other little issues that i know but atm i don't remind, will add them later.
If anyone has some other things that would to see fixed i'll be happy to update the first post, think this way each of them will be more visible.

1. ambivalent on this one.
2. that'd be nice
3. YES PLEASE
4. standings needed are, IIRC 0 (L1), 1 (L2), 3 (L3), 5 (L4). If you're kicking it in a station, it pretty clearly marks agents as "Available" or "Not Available" to you. If you're unsure, you can check the agent's personal info page. Somewhere in the attributes tab is a "Standings" entry.
5. missioning is already easy enough ... ambivalent on this one as well.
6. do any windows remember size and position?

7. yeah, BPC stacking is a pain.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

At stations is pretty clear yes. I was referring to the agent personal info window: remotely checking if an agent is available or not before going there should be more clear i think

I'll be more than happy to have bounties or reward cutted if ccp think it's needed to counterbalance the remote accept/complete feature! Anyway many missions ask u to deliver some item to the agent so don't think remote interaction would make mission runners double their gains. I just would like to avoid uselessy wasting time, for that there are hauling missions.

LOL just noted the locked target list resets position on hte right side from time to time even if locked

How about a whole bunch of fonts, I wouldn't mind having Verdana or Arial...... or eve in COMIC SANS!

I honestly think PoCo based sov is a good idea https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1417544

Why not.... there are industry standard fonts across many platforms...everyone has different variations in eyesight and tastes.

I just want the freedom to choose...that's all I'm saynig.
