Hi All,

Not sure if this gets asked a lot (guessing it does), yet I haven't seen anything about it.

Can you update your skill queue outside of Eve?

I'm at work at the moment and (unfortunately) cannot install the eve client, yet my skill queue will end shortly (I forgot to update it this morning)

Is there an offline tool that will allow me to add skills to the queue? Otherwise I'll have 18 hrs non training time by the time i get back home...

Thanks
Zynora

Nope. Only way to update the queue is from inside eve.

Could be worse though. used to be there wasn't a queue, so you had to get up at the right time to set new skills. (And crawl uphill through the snow to work, both ways)

Woo! CSM XI!

Nope. To change skills you have to log on and put them in your skill queue.

We didn't even used to have a queue.

It is a very clever way of getting folks to log in on a semi-regular basis, particularly if you're new (i.e. the folks they're trying to hook).

If you think you might make same mistake easily again, just place long skill you don't need to finish soon at the end of queue (4 days or so) and keep adding short skills (<24 hours) to the beginning whenever there is enough space.

This is what I do when I create a new character. Good skills to add to end are e.g. engineering and electronics V, which will be usefull for allmost any character.

If you forget to add new skills you still have several days to fix it before that long skill gets finished.
