custom paint on ships I think is something everyone wants.

I think I would make a fleet of ships that says "I love ccp..."

and put the name of an employee space man on each one.

So, like I'd have a "I love CCP Navigator" and so on

If anyone would retire from CCP, I'd retire the ship to a special hangar.

As long as the colour list was plain and simple, one way to f up Eve is to have space full of hot pink spaceships

4 suggestions:

* Just as you can orbit and stay at range, there should be an option to "keep formation" in the sense that you should be able to adhere to the position in the fleet where you are currently in. Perhaps even this should be something that you can do even when you are not in fleet, like right click and select formation->right. This will then keep you inline at the right side of the target you right clicked on (many "right and left hand slots" could make this an option for more than one ship to align to).

* Permanent naming of capital ships. This way the manufacturer that made such effort and put his soul into creating the ship to feel proud of his work.

* Corp/alliance sticker/icon on ship

* Add a screen/window inside station quarters to display what is actually happening outside station. Would also be cool to be able to leave a ship and step into a POS control tower and in the same way get a view of the outside.

The ability to bookmark you location without having to open the People & Places window. In order to use it properly, the People & Places window is big, hence it take up a lot of monitor space when i activate it to create a book mark fro my position.

Instead, add an 'Add My Location' option when we left click in empty space or on the ship hud. That will makes things a lot better.

Something that irritates me from a science and industry perspective;

Right click a blueprint copy > the option to copy and perform me/pe research.
Right click a T2 blurprint copy > as well as the above the option to invent.

Basically the right click menu doesn't exclude thing you will never be able to perform, cluttering the already large menu with useless options.

In hindsight my post should have had more psssshhhh

I've suggested this about 10 times now in all the appropriate threads, including this one. They apparently do not care. It is the quintessential example of a "little thing" too.

We already have that. Ungroup all weapons, then shift+drag the modules on top of each other.

Those are two features that I'd like to see.

When my connection is lost, I'd like to be able to quit EVE immediately, rather than "Quit Game" causing the application wait for a couple of minutes, then complain that the connection to the server was lost, with the option of restarting EVE or quitting the game.

A new interface for launching and controlling drones.
Its so annoying when they all get unstacked and you have to scroll down and shiftclick to select the ones you want to launch, also you cant see which ones are already damaged so you end up relaunching your damaged drones instead of fresh ones..


Also. Dont remove the login screen!

Drones:
Allow groups of mixed drones, e.g. my "ewar group" of 3xTP and 1xWeb drones.

For groups containing "extra" drones, e.g. a group 10 light drones, the least damaged drones should launch. The goal is to prevent damaged drones from launching again after you barely get them back in the drone bay after it grabs full room aggro.

A recall-only-damaged drones hotkey.

Super trivial and marauder specific:
* A setting for tractor beams to automatically disengage when the wreck is next to the ship,
* A settings for salvagers to automatically salvage a wreck which is locked and in range. Lazy? Maybe, maybe not. TP, tractor, and salvager juggling while counting volleys in a Golem is a bit non-trivial at times. (Also, if salvage drones can auto-salvage why can't salvager modules?)

Improve the readability of tables in the market view by giving us the option to shade every second row.

  • Unlock all targets Hotkey. pleeeeaaaseeeee

  • merge salvaging and looting

  • tractor beams need to auto turn off when they reach minimum distance. (with an in module option to have the current functionality, ofc.)

  • consolidated "cancel" button. currently one key stops the ship (ctrl + space) and the other things either have no cancel option or its unique to that action, such as the cancel undock on odyssey.

    • things we need to cancel and currently we can't: targeting, activation of a targeted module with nothing locked, loading of character wardrobe, probe scanning, etc.

  • remove squad, wing and fleeet booster position. if someone has a gang link it buffs people in the same system, or grid. best buff overrides the others.

    • maybe even allow any ship to fit gang links. obviously frigs couldn't fit them due to pg and cpu needs, and cruiser size ships would have to give up a lot to fit one, but Bcs and battleships should fit them with ease. with command ships, t3 with subsystems and capitals having bonuses to the effects ofc.

It would be nice if the ctrl+tab functionality placed windows in the order of most recently used so that we can toggle between recently used windows.

Try alt+tab on Windows ... see? amazing.

The bookmark system needs looked at, if at all possible make it client side or something. Right now copying bookmarks is a chore, and it's one you are pretty much stuck doing if you are a nullsec pilot and interested in PVP.

Note when I say a chore; if I want to go PvP effectively in a new region, I basically need 3-5 bookmarks for every gate in the region, this means I can spend upwards of 8 hours importing bookmarks.

EDIT: Also cut Jumpclones down to a 12 hour timer or something. I hate the 24 hour timer. Everyone hates the 24 hour timer. Hell the 24 hour timer is why I haven't JC'd back to import my current 8 hour set of bookmarks for delve. I'm winging it and it's miserable.

This has probably already been typed, but given it just bit me...

Make searches in the Asset tab include inside containers. Or a tickbox option to enable it.
