Exciting times! With the Phoebe release (to be deployed on November 4th) the 24 hour limit on the skill queue will be removed. With Phoebe you will be able to add further skill training to the queue even if the queue is already filled up to 24 hours (trial accounts excepted).

Read more about those exciting changes in CCP Delegate Zero's latest blog Longer Queues Expected: Skill Training Above and Beyond 24 Hours!

I'd much rather the removal of skill clones or attribute implants.

Good start, but please expand it soon to let us queue up skills that aren't yet injected and have them auto-inject from our hangar.

Love this! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I'm finding myself more excited for Phoebe than just about any other release in the past three or four years, so much awesome!

Hope you can eventually add the ability to inject skills that we don't have the prerequisites completed for Soon™ but in the meantime, this is spectacular!

Thanks for all that you do! ♥

Ability to train Level 6 please. You now, you will have to add it sooner or later.

Very nice addition.

I would like to see improvement and a modernization effort in the skill queue UI. Also creating a skill plan import format or supporting read/write from CREST so tools could be used to manage it would be nice. Though, frankly, I prefer in-game tools to external tools because it makes the game easier to get into. The simple requirement for having to tell someone that they need to install 3-4 tools from one-off sources makes it a harder sell.

I would love to see a skill requirement graph. And choose skills to train from there. I did like some of the version of the DUST skill trees. EVE is pretty much the only game I know of that requires you to keep all this information in your head for what leads to what and what is required for what. It makes the whole thing that much harder without adding any real gameplay decisions.

I hope you all come back to the UI sooner rather than later -- because it's so important.

only 10 years? sheesh... it should atleast be 20... Lol

anyways, usually my plans are about a year long anyways, now I can blop the whole thing in, the EVEmon skill plan import would be cool.

most likely I will use it for training themes, like sorting jumping skills, or gunnery skills and so on, instead of just having a massive 10 year long queue. I could imagine some alts having a 10 year long queue, so one never needs to worry about them again, mains need more agility in their skill planning.

Two next things you should look into, making it possible to have all 3 chars training at the same time for the 10 years, and programming injections of bought skill books, so the training doesnt need to stop because one forgot to log on to inject piles of books.

I am happy for people whose careers deploy them a distance from the net. Now they can still at least train without having to risk censure from acct sharing or loss due to training time not used.

Even as a newer player I think this is awesome! I have four accounts and hate it when I realize I forgot to check the queue on one of them and it sits there for hours not training.

One idea to add to the ability to schedule the automatic injection of skill books would be to allow you to select an item like a ship and click a button to add all prerequisites to the queue. Perhaps also be able to select a mastery level of a ship you already have and set the queue to train to that.

Or: Let us inject any skill, but block training of that skill until the pre-reqs are fulfilled.
