The systems are not compatible, and right now we have no plans to make them work with each other, sorry.

1. We will be making some kind of change in this area, probably making the button more accessible. The camera tracking thing is just a camera paradigm that we can't currently touch
2. We are indeed making changes to sig dots and D-scan visual will be toggleable
3. Don't think the bounding box will change, but we will have another pass at layering
4. We'll be taking a pass at lines and colors likely in the next release
5. Will check it out, but if you wanted to file a bug report to remind me I would not be sad
6. Interesting point - will bring this up with Colgate
7. Yup, good point. It worked that way before and so should in this map too.

1. We're going to take colors on in the next release most likely
2. We're going to lighten the sigs in an upcoming patch
3. First time I've seen a comment about them being too small! Usually people say they're too big. Will keep an eye and see if a trend develops.
4. This is a defect and we'll be fixing it in an upcoming patch

Umm, I asked tons of combat probing questions though and specifically sought out combat probing feedback? I'm afraid your pithy banter has usurped your point.

I can definitely go too fast and have it not update, yeah. That's not a bug though, that's just picking how you want to use the system.

Taking those sugar bullets so I don't have to, what a hero :)

Right now the arrows scale on window size, so maybe we can do something with zoom - I'll run it past CCP Colgate.

I'm sure many players before me, have already mentioned the issues/problems, they have with the new changes, i'm about to post, but i'd still like to give my feedback on this, just to show, there are more players out there, with the same opinion:

- Tooltips covering your Probes in the Scanning Map:
This is the thing, that bothers me the most. It would be great, if the cube and arrows of your probes would be "always on top". If i have to scan signatures, i don't want to be tooltips in the way. Yes, i can turn off markers in the filter settings, but i can't turn off all of it. I'd still like to see at least planets,stations and gates. And signatures are located near those celestials most of the time. And the advice to increase the tooltip delay is not really feasible, because this is a global setting. I don't have any problems with other tooltips in the game, just with those in the scanning map.

- D-Scan Indicator in Scanning Map:
Please give it a different colour from Sigs. Or add a toggle to make it invisible.

- Resizing Probe Scan Range:
It's more difficult in the new map, to grab the edges of the probes and resize them that way. Yes, i'm aware we can use the mousewheel/shortcuts for this, but i think many players, me included, would prefer to be able to this only with the mouse (for the mousewheel you still have to press ALT) Increasing the hitbox of the edges would help a lot.
Furthermore, one thing i would have always liked to see implemented: A visual feedback, if the cursor is over the edge of a sphere, when you try to resize them. For example, make the sphere more transparent and the edges highlighted. This would avoid the hassle, when you try to resize the probes respectively move the camera and you don't know, if your cursor is hitting an edge of a sphere or not.

- Missing Checkbox for "Show Anomalies"
In the old system, you could quickly update the distances to anomlies while in warp by unchecking/checking that checkbox. Now you have to go in the filter dropdown list. This is pretty inconvenient. (Perhaps it would be possible to automatically update the distances to anomalies during warp or when you change your position in the solar system?)

- Green Underlines in Anomalies/Signature List:
Please, change that back to the solid green background. This new look is just more difficult to read and understand when you glance through it.


That's it for now. (And, as it is, i think poor CCP Goliath has already enough to read )

I have other controls bound to the number keys, your new controls are not remappable as far as I can tell. Beside that, I am talking about using the mouse, the new filter control drop down box has a weird delay to open that makes it hard to use.


I would also like to add, that I would like the old solid green bar over the tiny bar we have in the new window. And an option to turn off the background stars would me nice

The camera follows the ship while it travels in the solar system
this makes things harder when you try to relocate probes while in warp
is there an option to turn this off?

i aslo disklike the fact i have to hit "control" so often" to relocate the probes

when in full screen the only thing i cant see is the ship controll
so i can see the overview and everything else on my screen but i can cloack up whn i jump to a system and warp while having the probe map open by clicking the module
i can press "F1 " and cloack up but cant be sure if the ship is cloacked
or if i want to reaproach the gate cant hit my mwd module i can only use those via shortcuts
and overall i cant see the "capacitor donat"
plz fix that

Today was the first day exploring with this new map. It seems couple of the annoying things are already being addressed, great to hear! Here's a few more.. Some of these are already mentioned but here goes;


1. I tend to scan while flying around, saving a bit of time. I have A LOT of bookmarks to help me move around. The bookmark icons used to be those cute _little_ pins, now in the new map they are same round icons as every other icon on the map. This makes it really hard to distinguish them on the map. (And I like to have my map also to show the moons and planets etc., so the map becomes really really cluttered.)

(actually ALL of the boxes are too big!)

2. In the old map clicking something on the overview would highlight that thing on the map, not anymore..? Also the next destination gate was highlighted in yellow on the old map, not in the new probe map.. When entering a system I've never been before, I have no idea where those other gates are on the map (without actually trying to find them hovering my mouse over where I think they will be). Highlighting clicked overview items on the map would massively help situational awareness.

3. When dropping probes, most of the time they tend to land in the middle of celectial objects. Dragging that white probe box away from there (without using the arrows) is IMPOSSIBLE without bringing up the pop-up menu-thing..... (see point 1).

4. Resizing the probes around the edges is pain. So much time wasted on this one...

5. D-scan button moved to left side..? I'm also one of those billions of people who keep their d-scan on the left side of the screen and moving that button even more left is just evil. (yeah i know about the keyboard shortcut...)

6. It would be really great if the (unfinished) sig results would be highlighted on the map when probes are moved on top of them.

7. Please fill the sig bars with color, instead of that little coloured line... SO confusing, even more so when you have 10+ sigs, both finished and unfinished ones....

8. In the old probe window after the scan results was around 75% (?) you could see exactly what the signature type was when hovering your mouse over it (temple site vs. monument site etc). Not anymore..?

9. In the new probe window you can't drag the columns smaller than they already are. I have a lot of windows open at the same time and I like to keep my probe window as small as possible. Resizing the columns they way I wanted I had no problem seeing all of them in the old probe window, now I can't see all the columns without making the whole window wider.

10. Double clicking a sig in the old probe window had that nice quick sliding animation, now it just snaps straight to it... This makes it just a little more confusing, especially if you're zoomed way in.


- (thank god if something is being done to the d-scan red bubble around your ship...)
