CCP Optimal has a new dev blog out regarding some rather neat changes to the fitting interface. As a compulsive ship fitter myself, I've been wanting to see this in-game for a long time and I hope it will make some of you happy as well Smile

Don't forget to give us your thoughts and feedback on the changes.

he only needs 15m of the 30m of drones.

drone control units ! counted for dps

smartbombs ! counted for dps

bomb bombs ! counted for dps

siege module ! counted for dps

capacitor stability still calculated like if everything is running at once.

Finally! Big smile

Looks good to me but not sure about the drone calculations - although I must admit to not knowing a better solution.

Believe in what they do, not what they say.

There's not a way to get a full breakdown on damage type in there is there? Possibly through a tooltip?
for instance, hover over the gun icon and it says in a tooltip "thermal 89% em 0% explosive 12 % and so on", hover over drones it displays "Thermal 100% (who doesn't use thermal drones on a mission boat)", but if you hover over the total it gives you a full breakdown? That'd be nice.
edit- as for the drone issue, just load the drones you want and leave the rest of the bay empty.

It's the little things like these (that aren't that little but whatever) that are surprisingly meaningful in the end.

Is the EHP still based on the lowest resist or more like EFT that has an average resist calculation?

I want to be able to see range on missiles. Just crudely calculated range, taking skillz, rigs, missiles themselves and so forth into account. Having to calculate this out-of-game is a bother.

Darn, I had hoped for the ability to mount a saved fit with items stored in containers/canisters, but ok.

Very nice so far.

Would like to see:
left side expansion of fitting window with dronebay so you can group them before undocking.
that would also allow to just select which group is active.

Buttons to set modules active / inactive would be pretty nice. most MWDs don't have to run all the time.

Still a good work so far :)

As EVE combat is far from being a one dimensional affair, it goes without saying that the DPS values are not to be taken too directly, but rather as an estimate on how much pain your boat will deliver on average


Shouldnt that be "an estimate on how much pain your boat will deliver in ideal conditions"? I doubt a ship does it's maximum dps 'on average'.

Otherwise, useful little addition.

How about adding display for optimal range/falloff too and theoretical max missile range.

I know you can see those from guns but missile range needs some calculation.

Now, I wonder...

It was SO hard for CCP to realize this sort of low hanging, winnitude-ripe fruits is what the players crave for?

You're showering us with an awesome rain of What We Ever Wanted, and every day the salivation for the Winter Expansion reaches new levels.

We really needed to resort to financial threats (i.e. subs cancelation) to make you return to the glorious path of starship epicness for which we - addicted like we are - worship you guys?
