Not mine. Converting entries into items in space is a bit different than moving a DB entry to a different state.

Maybe creating something rather simple.

If destroyed or unanchored. Spawn one wreck. That you salvage to get access to all the loot. The salvage time could be set long so server have time to roll. ?? It can not be the first 50, as suggested it needs to be random on all items to keep things fair?!

The Pilot hangar stuff sounds good, however I would prefer to have all structures which currently have storage got a Pilot hanger, so that you can use manufacturing arrays, labs, and storage facilities to have your own stuff.
Then make it possible to use the pilot hangar as input/output, and you would make a lot of indy CEOs very happy.
When using the pilot hangar as input, the payment of rental fees should be taken from the personal wallet, rather than a corp wallet.

That implementation would also enable renting slots at a POS owned by a different corporation than your own.

Comments, enhancements, and thoughts on the above is welcome, as always.

I'd disagree. No POS modules currently allow storage of an unlimited amount of m3. POCOs, which do allow this, do not drop anything when destroyed.

Just imagine if a corp with high member turnover maintains a POS with a PHA for 5 years.

Or, for that matter, imagine if a corp collectively created 3 new chars every day(could be done with trial accounts, or just extra alt slots), and used each new alt to fill a bay in the PHA with shuttles(this would only cost about 880mil for the entire year). You'd fit 80 shuttles into each bay if they're 40k m3 bays. After a year of doing this, if someone blew up the PHA, you'd suddenly have up to 87,600 shuttles spawned in space.

For that matter, fill the bays with frozen corpses. Each bay can hold 20,000 of them.

Hmm, would this crash the server? Or just cause an insane amount of lag?

Or, you can have a small team work on tweaking really outdated code to solve some common headaches while another team works on the much larger problem of an all-new design and code base.

And this is why I was saying about creating a new type of wreck for this mod for the dropped items to spawn within.

There has to be a intermediary step. While CCP could revamp the POS code, it will take them some time.

So if a POS code revamp takes a year.. should they just completely stall out on providing anything while they revamp it?

Is it optimal, nope. Is it Modular, nope.

Does it Help.. good lord yes it does.

Yea I know there is no alliance POS's, abilities to launch personal POS's, set standards or share Manufacturing arrays among the alliances. Those are headaches but people have managed (though they really do need to address the whole manufacturing/job cancelling issue).

The new hanger is a good idea, the Capital array is a good idea. Will it fix the current code.. no.

Will it help people in the interim While they fix the current code.... I believe so. Its not a solution, its emergency aid.


But Lord they need to fix the whole "cancel manufacturing job" issue that's present. BIIIIG problem.

So the excuse I keep hearing is there isn't enough time to implement changes before the expansion goes live. This is incredibly annoying. What happened to "planning ahead". Clearly this is a very large and important issue and instead of putting a band aid on it, perhaps fixing it at the source is a smarter idea.

How long will we have to wait before we finally get something that works? Plenty of people have given plenty of suggestions and all we get is "not enough time". Perhaps you should get a team together and dedicated them towards the POS Revamp. Theres an idea.

That's the problem.


No, the update will not change it even a little.


We're all waiting for it.


It seems, it was you, who didn't understood the problem.

If you don't think the changes coming will help out a large number of EvE players, perhaps you should actually read this thread.

If you feel that the current system working while waiting for a complete rework is "the problem" I don't know what to tell you.
