Alliance POS Usage should not be so broken!
The real problem is that there is no way to secure your very valuable blueprints when doing research. Anyone in the corp could go rogue, steel everything and run. There is no security on these valuable assets! This leads many to dividing into sub-corps that are all part of an alliance to share the POS while securing the blueprints etc.

This could be easily fixed in one of 3 waysIdea:

  • create a "hanger" that can be used by ALL of the industry/research tasks, but is restricted to just "owning" pilot.
  • allow materials to be taken from a station or outpost in the same solarsystem as the POS, just like is possible for the BPO's, but for all materials needed for an industrial/research job.
  • make a way for another corp (in the same alliance) to open up a POS structure containing a corp hangar and see inside it besides only the owning POS corp.


If you agree with any of these ideas, put some comments and likes on this and see if we can't get a dev's attention. Blink

This is a good point, on the actual system the whole POS management is a nightmare, it definitely need some love.

Maybe a personal tab on POS Hangar that allow to use the BPO/Materials from it would solve most of the security problems.
