As of now, Fleet finder allows filtering by range, with folloving options:

  • Any
  • 5 jumps
  • 10 jumps
  • Region


I would like to add 'Currnet region and neighbouring regions' - I find that often fleet is just a few jumps away, but in a different region, and 10 jumps is way too short range, especially in 0.0 where jumpbridges are common.
This option would show fleets that are reasonably reachable.

I can't really speak for your corp/alliance but in mine I normally find out about fleets because:

(1) My CEO screams at me to join or I get tarred and feathered
(2) My alliance chat is spammed to hell and back with the Fleet
(3) The FC screams at us to join fleet or else
(4) My corp chat is spammed with the Fleet
(5) Corp/Alliance people scream at us on comms to stop being terribad carebears and join fleet
(6) Planned ops are posted on the forums in advance to help the terrible spies we have
(7) Really important ops are usually sent out in an alliance mail

I don't think adding any more range to the fleet finder is really necessary unless your corp/alliance only have secret fleets you are not suppose to know about.
