How faster it would be to identify target of interest when you have 15 different overviews to remember and switch thru them when you need it? I think 5 is enough, have been enough for 12 years. For different activities you can even import the settings now.


Just because 5 is enough for you, doesn't make it enough for everyone. It has been sufficient, for 12 years, sure. But would be so much improved with more tabs, and especially hotkeys for those tabs, or better... hotkeys for entire UI presets like I'm asking for.

Seriously just because you don't need it, or would be slow to switch between them, doesn't mean some of us wouldn't really benefit from it.

Also just have to say it again on my thread... remove local and let us have more than one overview window open.

Doing this is slightly problematic if you use monitors with different vertical resolutions though.


At first I read this as you played on vertical monitors (widescreen monitors in portrait mode) and thought "how the hell?"

A hotkey for D-scan "SCAN"

Please?




We asked. CCP said no to this. Too much potential for key spammers killing the server by dscanning 10000 times a second.

Believe the example was... A basic monitoring program would be used to hit the hockey button repeatedly. If the list changed in anyway, a audio notification would go off, alerting the player that someone was in dscan range.

It removed the need for the player to pay attention to dscan anymore.

This would be used by people in anomalies as well as perimeter scout accounts. A list of people, what they fly when they jumped a gate would be generated, removing the ability for people to hunt.

Yaay!!!!
