All traders should consider expressing to CCP what an enormous boost in game play they gave when they just 1] added region sort to the market window and 2] created mutiple serach criteria querries in the asset search window.

Being that am a Level 4 Tycoon with one character and Wholesalers with other characters, I would waste hours and hours of time checking my orders because of the lack of a regional sort query. Gathering up assets was ludicrous without the ability to do multi-query searches.

These two huge improvements are far, far more important to game play than any new content or new expansions.

It should never have taken this long to implement such common sense interface improvements, but all traders should let CCP know what a boost this is to game play and perhaps they will do more database/query/interface fixes in the future (hopefully) and spend less time worrying about new expansions.

Agree, it's a fabulous change. Also the ability to double click an order in the wallet to open it in the market is, while a small convenience, a happy one.

I'm still left wanting the ability to folderize the orders windows.

This is surely something that traders across the board would never agree upon, but I for one would like to be able to make folders and drop my orders under those, simply for organizational aesthetics and sense of rhythm when updating.

I have over 600 open sell orders.

Before this region sort addition, I swear, a significant part of my time was spent just checking orders and wasting time doing multi-clicks to find out what region system was in and sorting thru all the orders.

This enhancement has now allowed me to play the game instead of "work" the game by eliminating all that wasted time--no more non-region orders cluttering up your region search for the current region.

Secondly, I don't think many know about the multi-criteria search enhancement made to the search tab of the assets window.

Example, I have a current search for:

security: high, region: kor, minimum: 8, category: module

This is so much easier and faster to see what you have and get it gathered up. With assets scattered all over nearly every system in EVE, this enhancement is as valuable as the region sort function in the markets window.

CCP still has other interfaces to bring up to "game playable" standards, but we need to give them credit for finally making some much needed improvement. The new "Contracts" interface improvement was also a huge improvememnt. More of these types of game play improvements are needed.

There is a new Clear Cache option in the Eve online launcher!!

If you suffer from Market Lagg after several weeks of gameplay, this option fixes that right up!

Thank you CCP!
