Awesome little changes and <3 the chart :)

Since there has been a lot of talk about the watchlist. Would it be possible to make the watchlist behave in such a way that if you click someone in the list (assuming the pilot is on grid), you'd then also be selecting his/her ship in space (just like you can select one of your drones in space by clicking on it in the Drones window)?

Reason I ask is cause in fleets where you for example have a fleetmember to anchor on or something similar, it would be nice to have this ability cause it would more easily let you see his/her position relative to yourself, fining that pilot in the overview is usualy not viable as you'd most likely have the overview set to hide fleet members. Having to lock the person just to be able to see where he/she is in the "pack" seems a bit unnessecary and potentialy risky.

Thank you, Punkturis! That would be awesome!




That would be great!

And as a reward, I've arranged you a vacation of relaxing on a Florida or Georgia beach while being served by guys with southern gentlemen accents.

Or not. Oops

I'll just point out a cake that is not a lie. Easy Mug Cake



I can't promise anything else than passing on your suggestions Blink

also, nom cake!!

I'm sure seeing the date is a trivial thing to those of you who live in the same time zone as the EVE server, but for those of us in the rest of the world, it can get confusing. Opening up the calendar is not an optimal solution, especially when it worked fine for years the way it was.

I'd like to request something for a not-too-distant sprint. Some time ago the overview was setup to export overview settings & re-import them, which is a huge help when the overview gets reset (like in this patch). Can you pleeeeease (pretty please with sugar/cherries/beer/ *insert your preferred bribe-able libation here* on top) consider doing the same for the Window positions, ESC-menu settings, etc. that are typically reset? Or make them sync-able with the host? Something so we don't have to manually re-set it all

When I saw they were nuked again tonight I just logged off. After a long day of work, I just wanted to play a little, not spend a lot of time re-tweaking the UI. (Yes, I know it's not a lot in the grand scheme of things, but it still sucks). This is especially painful for those of us with multiple accounts & alts & a little OCD. After 6 years of playing the game, I always cringe after each patch until I see if the settings were lost yet again. If you could make this easier to restore you'd be my personal hero.

Im happy with target bars as it is but some times when you spin around the ship on some of the background parts it's harder to see these bars.

noooo! I don't like inter-office politics, we're all working towards the same goal, making EVE better for everybody and I think it's better if we do so as a "team" even though we're not on the same team, know what I mean?

karkur and I talk alot about the little things we're implementing and consult each other and it's much better that wayBig smile

Usability suggestion for the many who spend lots of time on the forums: please add a "read news" button in the empty space between the other buttons.

The only problem with this is I can't decide if percent shield left or clear watch list is the greatest change...

Thanks for some fantastic improvements :)


Any chance of getting an Alliance option in the right click auto link menu? Character and Corp are already there.

Sorry but I think the bar's on the watch list are still woefully inadequate.

Sooo... I was wondering if it would be possible to make damage to drones visible in Hangar and Drone Hangar. This would be pretty helpful.

On a sidenote... when I open information about drones in my drone hangar now... its showing with numbers after skills. Very nice... but why are the numbers completely mixed and in another order as the standard information window without skill involvement? (when you open it in space station hangar)

An Option would be nice in watchlist to show %values and/or real values of the shields etc. (also for targets)

Ok now. Punkturis clearly for the win. I hope everyone in CCP knows, that you are the reason for 1/4 subscribed accounts :D

It really should have a tree system, similar to market, so all the goods are sorted into categories...
