Hey,

I tried to activate a Capital Emergency Hull Energizer today but had my safety set to yellow because I try to avoid getting killrights on me and stuff.. for reasons.

Turns out you get a criminal timer when activating it so you can only activate it with your safety set to red. That's okay. I can live with that, if we're supposed to get a criminal timer I'm willing to get one too, no problem.

But please put that somewhere in the description / attributes of the module! Or add the red background glow that you get when you mouseover the module (if your safety isn't red) like with Smartbombs or when mousing over an offensive module while having someone else targeted in hisec.
There is no indication at all that you get a criminal timer when activating it and when you find that out for the first time you lose a capital without activating that module because the moment you want to activate it, if you don't have your safety red already, it's most likely too late.

Description / Attributes of the module: https://s14.postimg.org/dcfrh11nl/Capital_Emergency_Hull_Energizer.png

So, my suggestion is, either remove the criminal timer OR add the fact that you get one (or that your safety has to be set to red) to the description / attirbutes.

Seems reasonable. You might consider posting this in the "Little things" thread on the new forums. Make sure you post in the proper format so the scraping tool picks your idea up.

Ugh, could you link me to that? My bookmark to the features and ideas forum got me here. :-)

That seems weird. Why would a self-only module trigger a criminal flag?

It is weird but when you attempt to use it in lowsec it does.
