Can someone please give me overview settings for a "Fleet" tab, that shows *EVERYONE* in fleet, in the overview window, regardless of standings.

Ex: If you/corp/alliance has someone set RED (negative standings) and they are in fleet, they will show up on your overview, and when they person leaves fleet, no longer on overview.

For logistical reasons :)

Sure. Just make sure everything is checked.

If you want something that just shows fleet mates, I don't believe you can do that. Sorry.

That's the opposite of what you should want. Ideally, you only have hostiles in your overview during combat (so you dont have to dig around for targets), and you rely on fleet broadcasts for logistics.

But you can create up to 5 custom tabs and even more presets in a dropdown for your overview. the customization is very powerful, but not very intuitive.

Eve overview gives more importance to unchecked boxes than checked ones. So for ex, if u had unchecked 'negative standings' and checked 'pilots in my fleet', u won't get those fleet mates with neg standings in your overview.

As above post states, check everything and uncheck only war/bad/horrible standing. This is for all blue pilots.

Uncheck alliance/corp/neut/war/bad/terrible/militia for fleet mates. remember, its neutrals and not neutral standing (the last option). Both are different.

Never, ever, ever uncheck the neutral standing box. You'll die or miss targets almost all the time.

Also try not to uncheck outlaw/negative/low sec status (completely different from standings). They count towards both blue and red members and unchecking them won't show them in overview. Most pilots confuse this part so its good to have to slight negative sec status on your pvp main (try not ratting with it Big smile). You might get lucky.

Hope this helps.

Edit: Sorry, did not read second part of your query. I am not sure about this, but if they are fleeted then they will shoe if you do like above. Only those not in your fleet will not show. Let us know if thats right.

I would still like to see *ONLY* fleet members, so I can see ranges and stuff... I don't have a unlimited rep range ^^ Or maybe some idiot fleet member drifting out of range not paying attention...

well, that's entirely possible, if you mess with the other tabs in overview settings. also, its best to get your fleetmates in the habit of broadcasting for reps, so you don't have to go digging through your overview to find them.
