Good morning, is there a way to move your Corporate Headquarters to your owned Citidel? Thanks

"Citidels" work in mysterious ways ... often buggy... incomplete ... I'd be surprised if you actually could do that...

Fozzie should probably spawn you a few nodes to entosis in order to set your hq wherever you want :3

Tumblr said that there would be privileges? So if you're a person of color I'll have to ask you to turn your props and hardeners off. Also, if you are a woman you'll have to send me 200m for every billion you make.

Thankyoooou <3

That seems like a reasonable and logical feature request, but to my knowledge you can't do that yet.

You can't do it because it's a Bad Idea™ with the way clones currently work.

Corp HQ's are primarily used as an emergency fall back location for medical clones. Characters can set their clones to all sorts of places they won't always be able to use:


  • Citadels that get reinforced / destroyed
  • Citadels has have cloning services run out of fuel
  • Outposts that have cloning services disabled by entosis

etc...

If your character has their clone set to any location like this and they get podded, they respawn at the Corp HQ. If it was possible to set the Corp HQ to any of the locations on that list, it leaves the potential for characters to become stuck when they can't clone to any valid structure.

CCP would need a solution to this issue first.
