Wormholes

A and B I'm not going to touch because meh. Wormholes don't have to make sense.

C: Does not exist, I see nearly no reason to implement since you need the window up anyways. Might be useful mid-fight, but makes PvE that much safer with macros
D: Probes auto-recall when you jump system anyways so you don't "have" to hit it. If you mean you accidentally click it (like myself, quite often) then I guess we just suck.

A) Surely this is to stop larger entities picking on people living in those holes?

B) variety

C) Yes please, but karkur has said this is not a simple thing to implement

D) probes recall automatically when you jump anywhere now

The dscan shortcut was squashed due to issues with macro keyboards or bots sending 100 dscan requests a second. I'll give you a specific example. Pirates little helper can be used with dscan for scanning down pos's. If a hotkey were created in eve, that program could be modified to send out an audible noise to you when it picked something up on dscan (as you would set your mechanical keyboard to dscan 5 times a second.

It would pretty much kill scouting, hiding, movement, etc. I get why they don't want to implement it, and hope they don't bother to.

The c5 1 bil holes are annoying at times, but ultimately wouldn't stop people. Some like fairly easyish to role holes. It's a gameplay feature that doesn't need adjustment atm.

I have a solution. Random mass for every hole =D no more +/-10% whatever. Each hole can have a random mass 1-4 billion with random max jump mass maybe?

And the complaining about non issues thread award goes to...

Putting my prospective CSM hat on here, for a second, yes, I would like to see some kind of logic at play with wormhole mass allowances (size of ship), and mass transit limits. It's a discussion, if it ever comes up, I'd be happy to partake in constructively.

However, i can see there won't be much of a change on the former. The two cases where I would consider there to be a few tweaks possible would be some barges (Procurer, Skiff into frig holes) and battlecruisers which currently have the same mass as cruisers. In the case of the former, revising mass downward would allow them through frig holes to take advantage of the ice fields in C13s, but the unintended consequences would be, for example, uber tanky hullcurers. Maybe there's ice mining refinements in other areas (eg, another Venture iteration) to open this up.

Battlecruiser mass ought rationally be more than cruisers, but we need to keep them open to movement into and out of C1's. So is there really an actual need, beyond it not looking right that a weak and scrawny Osprey weighs the same as a bricked-out Prophecy? Not really.

As for transit limits, again, it's bizarre that some holes allow more than others. It's weird that you can fling whole squads of BS through some, and not others. I mean, look at the Z971 transient, it's so thin Kate Moss is trying to marry it.

But i don't see a need to change anything, for a couple of reasons. Its a different flavour and feel living in a D364 C5, and banging holes shut with a pair of orcas or Higgsed Geddons, than it is living in any other C5 with 3 billion mass limits, or the D845 in the C3 with it's Sasha Grey like accommodating allowance. Secondly, people are used to it, and no cogent case can really be made to make a mysterious and protean area of EVE all uniform and logical.

There's also the issue of wormhole lifetimes, which vary. I find that the 16 hour C4 statics are baffling as well, and often a bit annoying. 24 hour wormholes are good for most people because if you reset it to a good spawn time you can log on, do your stuff, and predict reasonably well when it disappears. Given most people log in after work, etc, this suits people eminently. 16 hours, not so much. But you get used to it and roll your hole before bed, or first thing when you log on after a day's work.

that's my 5 ISK cents

C) click the distance box on th d scan window so you can type in distance by keyboard. Press enter. You just d scanned. Repeat as needed. Unfortunately you can't do much else while doing this.

D) the positioning is awkward, I agree. Too often I accidentally click it.
