Well that blue tag up there ^^^^^^ seems to be a good thing.

But yeah. Please do this.

I also would like to know how the shields would work
Or if there WOULD be a shield.

+1 The pos also needs to be deployable by individual players not for the corp. This allows the player to leave the corp and retain control of the pos, or stay in corp and not worry about directors meddling with his "player owned station" (pos). The pos, when deployed as an individual, will be controlled by the player who onlines it. That player may then grant permissions to specific parts of the pos (on a pos module basis) to individual players, corps, or alliances as desired. IE. the player who onlines it is the owner and may for instance set the corp to be allowed to fuel it, but only he can remove fuel from it, and only he may set the password or set who may enter the pos or offline it.

yeah, this couldn't be exploited or anything. Roll

It was a good thing 5 years ago.

Nothing happened.

Turn a star base into a capital ship that you turn on its 'seige' mode and it deploys everything? and all the modules you have fitted to it will function as the star base's stuff? various bays and the sorts too?

Yeah, what Velicitia said. That's a completely different thing. If that's what you want to suggest please make a new thread.

Dont see whats so hard about implementing player created ranks

player creates rank

player adds list of available roles to rank

player names the rank

assigns players to that rank

If you use a pos which was anchored and onlined for an individual and not for the corp, then you deserve to lose anything you bring into it. Get your own pos and use it if you don't trust the owning corp/individual. A POS would be onlined for a corp to take advantage of directorship control and alliance perks like jump bridges, etc.

Still needs doing, just like it still needed doing a few years back. So, CCP, this still needs doing...

Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing.

OK, so now you set up two large POS in some system, and are cranking out T1 and T2 ships/modules/etc. You get a dec, and just drop corp to avoid it, whilst still cranking said stuff.


you see the problem now?

no, you need a cat o' nine tails ... sorry. They can be purchased at the booth over there for 1 ISK.

If you wish to use said mace, Soundwave is over there Arrow (he's the guy wearing the $1000 jeans).

there's not much new to bring ... hence continuing to flog the dead horse. Blink
Pretty much, at this point, the thread's purpose it just keeping CCP from forgetting about POS in favour of more $1000 jeans or something.

+1 for the thread and thanks for keeping it alive.

One side thought, with the advent these new Fuel Blocks, now towers have a fixed consumption rate, no matter if the only thing online is a Corp Hanger or in full manufacture/death star mode.

I believe this is an error that should be addressed.

Nothing clever at this time.

I did think it a bit strange, that. I honestly didn't think there were that many people who played this game who found arithmetic difficult. Must be though for them to feel the need to simplify it that much.
