Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Would like to see adjustability in the window and possibly a lighter version that doesn't show the image of the ship. A list of slots similar to viewing shared fits sort of thing. Also having better access to cargo/drone bay by just clicking and dragging rather than opening another window for it.

Yes, this I like, especially simulating hardener/overheat/etc, that would help a lot. Also choosing which drone is being used for the 'drone dps' bit of the UI would be great as well, as I never know whether or not my lights/meds/sentries are being used to calculate it.

While I'd strongly agree with more grouping options. I'd not go so far as to say there is NO reason to 'not' group quite a few modules of the types you've listed (and other energy warfare and ewar things). Attacking multiple targets is often a great use of split ewar modules just as a quick example. So while having the option to group them would be nice there are uses for them un-grouped. (And if I've missed your point in some manner apologies).

I haven't read the whole thread, but I do want to throw in a few ideas (so sorry in advance if they've already been said)

- Cross compatability with the market, dragging and dropping ships, rigs and modules into slots, to allow 'test fitting' before buying.

- Being able to 'fit from market', using a reverse of the new selling window to buy in all the bits for a fitting.

- Being able to see the effects of active modules when they are on, as well as if they are off.



Lastly, a question for the devs; Is it possible to create a 'mass fitting' system? (Also a mass naming system would be handy too.)

I usualy fit ships for a living in Eve
and here is a few key points that would have made my life more easy.


1# Mods in cargo hold, allow me to save a fitting with mods in cargo hold.
Example we have two fittings with a cruiser one with HAM:s and one with RML i would like to put the RML:s in the cargo hold with its ammo. allowing me to have a fitting saved with the correct cargohold (even if its not a charge would be GREAT)

2# Allowing me to have a fitting with rigs but a check box that don't put the rigs on the ship.
- allowing me to put the rigs in the carghold by (1) is better ofc.

3# a checkbox that disables the warning of not having enough PG or CPU to online all modules.
- this is very tidious when your fitting 40+ ships that have pg or cpu rigs and i put rigs in cargohold.


Now from a fleet flying standpoint.

4# Wardrobe refittings on the fly that "Ignore" the rigs

5# allow more Corp fittings, we are often at / around max.

6# Alliance fittings? why not with the unification of alliances having the alliance be able to save correct fittings would be a time saver for all alliances. Allowing it according to (1) store wildcard mods in cargohold would make the logistic hell even easier.


7# Stuff that enhance the usablility of the fitting tool.
a# allowing you to access all items in game in the tool from a list allowing you to try out a fit before you buy it.
b# allowing the tool to sugest how to deal with pg/cpu issues (get a rig, +3% implant etc)
c# a buy this fit on market button. that create a "buy list" that you can use in the nearest market hub.


edit: i don't put rigs on ships on a risk aware scale and not losing isk on removing rigs when a doctrine change occure.

I think this is the right way thing should be done.
A new fitting service should be designed instead of an upgrade of the current one.
The suggestion of Rixx is very well posted.
I know that CCP karkur already stated that a new revised code is not in the scope of that work, but I think that the current one are very outdate, and should be replaced by a news one, with the news functionality we want.
Thank you

Yes i want it now !! in Proteus pls

Is this going to be easy for you to support? As in will be bug fixed and updated regularly or is it going to be like the jukebox or the web browser or more like teams that last only a release or 2 before it is removed/reverted back to the basic fitting.

In addition to what people already mentioned multiple times, there are two things that I'd really like to see:

1. Allow the "Fit to active Ship" pick modules from Station Containers. At the moment, all modules need to be in your main hangar which quickly gets cluttered with tons of modules. Ideally, I'd like to have several containers in my hangar, each containing the fittings for one particular ship.


2. An option to downgrade / change meta if the module from a saved fitting is neither available in the hangar nor at the current station's market, but you have a different meta version of it. This is very important for lo-sec residents, where you can't always get the meta versions that you want. To make it really perfect, allow saving multiple alternate versions as a single saved fitting and let the fitting tool choose by the modules that you currently have available.

Some other, more cosmetic things:

1. Assemble, Board, Fit, Insure, Load & Group Guns - as a single command.
2. Right-click a stack of ships - for instance 20 Tristans - and "Fit all".
3. When you click on a fit that's been linked somewhere, you'll see these red crosses when you don't have the skills for some module - but there's no red cross if you don't have the skills for the hull itself, you need to click "info" for that.
4. Total training time for all the missing skills - ideally with an "add these to my skill queue" option. This will be mostly useful for newer players.
5. How long can I overheat this module before it burns out?
6. Better capacity calculations: how long will my capacitor last without this module?

Ok,

Since you're wanting to have the option to build a fit without actually buying the modules, I have a few things to add to that.

• Show the total fitting costs based on nearest market values

Perhaps individual modules prices based on nearest market values


• An option to buy and fit load out from the fitting panel, without having to go through and individually purchase each item separately


• When buying a bulk fit, and some items are not available in your current station, a window comes up saying "these items are not available in your current station (show a list of items with locations which are highlighted red if they're not in high sec)." At the bottom it will say "Would like like to purchase these items anyway? (You will be required to pick them up.)"
