ve got an idea for very fast salvaging.

When you re in your ship right click your salvager. There would be a line saying this " salvager automatically open cargo container " activate or disactivate. Here we will choose activate.

What does it do, lets put it in a senario.

i have 20 wrecks to salvage, i ve position my ship in a perfect spot all wrecks are in tractor beam range.

i have 4 tractor beam and 4 salvager.

So let begin targetting all wrecks and activating a tractor beam on each of them. As soon as a wreck gets in salvager range i activate a salvager on it.

When a salvager successfully salvage a wreck the cargo container window pop up in a group window. So after successfully salvage all 20 wrecks, i would get a group window with 20 tabs on it.

If you like to take it all there would be a button " loot all cargo container " click it, salvage done. All 20 cargo container looted.

You want to choose what you want to take, just navigate with the tabs, after you re done just click the top right X to close the
group window. Salvage done.

What do you think....:)

salvagers already drop the stuff directly into your cargohold... so, not really sure what you're looking for here.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

He wants the cans of loot to open automatically.

@ OP: Stop being lazy, seriously.

Ok maybe this should be explain,

In a wreck sometimes there s stuff in it. If you salvage it the wreck disappear but a cargo container remain there.

I want this cargo container to auromatically open in a group window. So after salvaging the looting can be done quickly
get it.

oh Shocked

he needed that much text to say "I'm lazy and don't want to open the wrecks I'm salvaging"?

the one part i really like about this suggestion, is giving us an option to "loot all open containers".
and whats wrong about being lazy and asking for a more helpful way to do the boring stuff eve has to offer? and please dont argue this. if ccp wants to spend a little time making it more convenient for the players let's let them.

show drone health bars while they are 'in bay'.

I think the issue here, is that the moment you either salvage it disconnects you from the object and you have to go hunting for it again.

Rather than salvage, find container, open container, loot container; it may be easier to pull wreck, loot, salvage.
