With the advent of 'warp to me' broadcast, can it be done in such a way that I can right click on that pilot and orbit them? Maybe call it 'Support pilot' or something? If they're on grid, you can orbit. If they're off grid, warp to them.

This would improve the already existing fleet mechanics of adding your anchor without any ambiguity.

If the FC dies, it would be nice to have an easy way to have people reanchor. It should be pointed out that there are certain groups that headshot the FC everytime.

Anything that people do in game through manual means could be made easier.

You do realize the 'end game' of your attitude is that everyone gets everything for nothing? Then they get bored. Then eve dies.

When i say your way of thinking is a cancer trying to kill eve - I mean it literally.


Example: tic-tac-toe - it's the easiest game that we all know. We've all mastered it. None of us play it.

yeah, tic-tac-toe would be way better if people have to practice for a couple years before they come close to winning.

Or you can just use the "Regroup" button and it automagically makes everyone in your squad/wing/fleet approach your ship...
