EVE Information Portal

Hey Dev, this Hiperion patch is for tooltips right?

THis is pretty much what we all expected to have change after incarna btw

I wonder how long this will last?

Well, after half year of absense in EVE I found 'tooltips' case in a better shape (no black screen of death), but it still needs some improvements.

1) Bracket list has too big interval between lines. Maybe add 'compact' listing (like in industry window)?

2) Tooltips delay slider does not affect tooltips of modules on HUD and (which is more important) tooltip does not fade away as I move poiter outside the module icon - happens when I want to overheat my modules in a row from left to right.

So, I cannot overheat (shift+click) when the tooltip is hovering my next right module----> shiploss probability is increasing!

I suggest a behavior type for appearing tooltips= they should fade away immideately after I move my point away OR if I only move my pointer.

Zero delay is needed.

3) In ship hangar - tooltips does not contain info about shiptype (remember how Epithal and Iteron icons looks like - they are pretty same).

And more - it contains info that is already before my eyes (ship name), which is quite strange.

So,shiptype info needed.

4) Too many zones, where tooltips are useless or its presense is very questionable.

For example:

a) Overview. Playing more than year I do not remember situation when I was lacking such kind of info, because Overview already has it.

b) Contracts listing and Inventory. Tooltips are hovering items and lines (in contracts).

I suggest a dedicated checkbox/slider for these zones.


Please, CCP, do not forget this thread - tooltips implementaion is still 'raw'.

Thank you.

You may not understand the way that CCP works. I'll clarify that for you:

1. Some Dev comes up with a bright idea that he thinks is cool
2. They do some development work and deploy it to the test server
3. Once players actually see this new idea, it is clear that it isn't quite as bright as the Dev thought
4. Lots of feedback is provided, outlining the problems and issues
5. 90% of said feedback is ignored, as CCP do not take criticism well, and never have done
6. Some cosmetic changes are made to give the impression that CCP actually listen, when in fact they only do what they want
7. Empty promises are made about future "iterations" to revisit and improve said bag of cr4p
8. 6 months later, no iterations have been made and they never will.


The 6 week release schedule had made matters worse, as now they do not have time to fix stuff they break during a release, before they start work on the next one.

As a result, CCP are introducing more and more bugs and broken gameplay with each release, and they are either too dumb to see this, or too pig-headed to admit it. Either way, its screwing the game up.

There is a slider for Tooltip delay.

Sneaky bump before 6 month limit
