Upcoming Feature and Change Feedback Center

This is not directly related, but is within the general fitting realm:

PLEASE allow in-game fits to import stuff listed in the cargohold!!!

I'm tired of telling my guys they need to have a Pax Amarria in the cargo!!!

(I know ammo+scripts can be listed in fits, but they do not import when using the import from clipboard tool. Plus, I often want situational modules, etc. to be listed somewhere on in-game fits!)

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this.. but right-clicking on a fitted module and having a drop-down window with all other types of that module would be nice.
Perhaps have sections for T1, T2, Faction, etc.
Also having their CPU and PG shown in the drop-down would be great, so you can get really tight fits and choose what module to fit there if you need to squeeze a bit more something.

Edit:
For example, say you have a ship all fitted and you love it, but it's 2 PG short. You could right-click on the T2 afterburner you have fitted on the ghost screen and see what other options are there to try to save the PG but keep everything else.

My thoughts:

EFT can be used without having to start the client, and this is a major advantage to its users. I'm guessing that you want to implement an equivalent in-game because it would be available to all players, rather than to the small subset that reads the forums and knows about EFT/pyfa. That's fine, but don't just cover lack of features with graphics and icons (actually icons suck, don't do those).

I'd like to see damage and survival stats not just vs. the various NPC resistance presets, but also against "player PVP-fit" ships, if you can pick some of the popular fittings and dissect their resistance and damage profiles. Also, if you can code it, stats for "how this ship would fare vs. the last 2-3 ships you've PVP'd" based on stored killmail data.

Finally, one thing that EFT does not have is new player tutorials built in. You can see DPS, EHP, etc. but don't know what it means unless you're a veteran. At the risk of "dumbing down the game", I'd like to see:

- "This ship as fitted has the following weaknesses:" you can be warp scrambled, you align very slowly, you can be easily jammed due to low sensor strength, maximum range is only 10 km, no propulsion module to escape if attacked, the ship can be destroyed in one shot by x destroyers or y battlecruisers, the ship's value is x times more than a destroyer or y times more than a battlecruiser, and so on.

Basically, keep track of a bunch of thresholds for various vulnerabilities, and if the ship meets those conditions, list them.

- "Reminder: this ship can not enter high, low, null, wormhole space due to the following modules being installed:"

- Stats for alpha strike damage, duration of a 10-jump trip, the align time that you've listed, drone control range, cost of the ship and installed modules.

- "Shopping wizard": "I want a ship that can... cloak" for example, ok here are the T1, T2, T3 ships that can fit a cov-ops cloak, select one from the list and let's fit it.

- Purchasing wizard: buy this ship and these fittings, with options for selecting the closest, cheapest, fewest stops, high, low, null sources. Present all the information in a window, how much everything costs, how many stops to get everything, how much cargo hold is required, and accept/cancel. Buy the items from the market if they accept, and set their autopilot to go pick it up, ship first of course.

I really want to see align time, but please keep inertia modifier on the list as well! If align time were the only attribute shown, it would become difficult to reverse engineer the calculations used by the game to determine align time. I already find myself unable to figure out how a few of the numbers are calculated, such as falloff hit chance reduction vs. damage reduction or capacitor and shield recharge rates, for instance. It would be nice if some more numbers were shown to reveal the secrets--just hide it somewhere on the long list for us theorycrafters to find. But stuff like align time should be easier to find.

Previous post mentioned that we should be able to see the skills that have an impact.

The ship and modules is only half the information, the other half is implementing a way to select character skills and implants.
CCP Sharq, you mentioned that resources are limited for this feature, if CCP doesn't give you the resources go tell them it's a waste of time, do it right or focus on something else until there are enough resources.

Any chance we can get a way to full screen preview the ship + it's fit (Turrets etc) after we ghost fit?

How about Fullscreen preview + White or green screen backgrounds? Would be a great way to help us artistic fans make even better fan art.

That's a bigger scope request, along with skill tweaking, ghost implant fitting, drug testing etc. We are focusing on YOUR ships, modules, drones

What makes you think the booster ship is NOT my ship? I triple box. The booster and the other ships are all my ships.

PYFA it is then. Why learn a second method when the first does what I want, and the second does not?

Yeah some of the cool goodies can be a rev 2 kinda thing. It doesn't have to be PERFECT the first time through.

You're crazy if you think software will ever do that :P
