Hello

So sum times i train random alts on one of my four accounts to do things and the one thing that has always annoyed me was the need to *stop* a skill training on one char to then quickly spend a day training something on another.

So i was curious how hard it would be to implement an idea were say if im on an alt and want to train a skill to lvl 1 for something. Could when you click *train now to level 1* it would say *do u want to pause skill training on taranius de consolvile?*

Just wondered if this would be considered a good idea or a bad idea

training two chars at half speed= training one char at full speed= auto pausing one chars training so the other can train

seriously i dont see a difference, tho given a choice i at least want the auto pause thing cause damn thats some annoying bs

I'd rather CCP wasted their time giving us custom paint jobs for our ships or something fun that everyone can benefit from.

Oh god.

How about being able to pay double and triple the amount of a single account to be able to train two and/or three characters at the same time on the same account?

Good bye account per alt.

Would never work

What im suggesting is, u make an alt and then u think im gonna train this skill to level 1

U need to log char B

Log on char A

Stop training on A

Log back on B

Start training on B

Rinse and repeat

I think it could be changed

Off topic but CCP should allow you to link accounts to a single core account or email. When logged in you can switch between all characters on said linked account, and have multiple instances up so long as they are on separate alternate accounts. That way you don't need to remember multiple account infos or keep logging on and off to switch accounts. This would also mean CCP would need to create a "Log off to character screen", but that should have been done years ago.

Now that is the best suggestion posted in this thread.

I would love to be able to have all three characters on the account use the one training queue. Thus if I have four skills queued up with 1-10 hours of training time, then I log to my alt and queue up a bunch of other 1 hour skills, and each character would be making use of the account's training time as the queue progresses.

No more "that other character on this account is training", just slot the skill in there (or kick out the other characters' training queues).

It would also be nice if training could be paused when clone jumping and then automatically restarted. With the all-characters-share-one-queue idea, there would no longer be the issue of "do we restart training on the active character?" Just pause the queue in all circumstances, then restart the queue in all circumstances.

Excellent idea.
