Wormholes

The beta map is *horrible* for scanning (imo of course). How do we get the ears of the developers on this item before it is the only map available?

I've dropped this in here because scanning is such a critical part of living in W/H space - if this should be moved to a different forum, please do so ISD.



A doughnut pointer is an utter failure - give me an arrow like all other programs on the planet where we need to "point at something" please.



If anybody has suggestions on how to use the beta map for scanning successfully, please drop hints here. I'm willing to adjust my methods if there is a way to do so, but right now it is a flaming bag of .... on the doorstep.

1. i absolutely hate the scroll smoothing. Would be nice to have that disable-able.
2. I really dont like the color palate. it looks pretty but for its function its legit hard to find active systems. Everything seems to be another shade of bland.

I am honestly willing to be convinced I'm wrong in my thinking here. Pax... how do you scan with that g.d. round pointer? Or is there an option to make that an honest to goodness pointer that I've missed?

Yes indeed, we can turn it off *for now* - that's where the problem lies, beta leads to live unless we can convince them of the error of their ways (or they or anybody else can teach us to use the tool the way they envision.)

^^This. I really like the fact the devs in eve will talk with players and get feed back, it's one of the best things about ccp and I've not came across another game that has this level of communication.

However this is the wh forums and they never come here, ever, because they don't really give a flying **** about wh space, not even little and this as a customer makes me a sad panda 🐼

Annoys me to no end.

It certainly has the potential to be massively better than the old map. I really love that its a separate window than can be sized to whatever. I like to keep it up when I'm rolling around K space so I can easily see the layouts of the systems around me. If I could stack it with other windows and easily go from stacked to full screen with a button click it'd stay up all the time for me.

It really just needs a dev or two to spend a week or so on it really cleaning it up to make it shine.

Corbexx and Chance Ravinne, whats the likelihood you could poke CCP about getting someone on cleanup duty for the nu-map?

He's responded to EVEmails I've sent him over CSM stuff (Getting POS fuel calendar events added to the Gate calendar), entirely possible he'll respond to this. Just because someone doesn't spend every waking moment responding to every forum post in 100% agreement with you doesn't mean they aren't an avenue to go through to get things fixed.

Actually it wasn't with out trying, a few had there apps rejected back in the day.
I think they mention once or twice that wh background checks where not like other areas of the game.

The new Beta Map is horrible, I am glad I can turn it off and I hope CCP is gonna remove it or change it completely because it's a piece of junk right now.
