Hello

During discussions with my corporation, we have come up with a couple of ideas that we think should be added to Eve.

1) An alarm that can be set for a full ore bay on a mining ship. Like the tones that can be set for shield and armor damage, we would like to have tones that warn when our ship's ore bay becomes full.

2) War declaration and cool down periods on the corporation calendar. All corp members receive the eve-mails sent when the corp is war decked. We would like to see this information our our calendar as well. We already see calendar posts automatically made for PoS tower fuel issues.

Thank you

Hi there,
They sound not crazy, the first one poeple will complain that it promotes afk mining, but i get what you mean, and the second one u can do manually ofc, but i get the idea.

There is a ideas and suggestions forum section , maybe a forum admin can move this one there

If you're actively playing the game you're not going to need this because you can see it's full. If you're not actively playing you have bigger problems, like the fact that you're begging to be asploded because you're not paying attention.

No, your rights end in optimal+2*falloff

unless, you know, your in an actually tanked skiff or somesuch in highsec, and decide to write a paper while you mine.

and lets face it, AFK or not, if someone wants a barge in highsec dead, its dead. you dont have to hold it down or anything, just perma-bump it for an hour or two until your friends get home from highschool and logon, then go suicide kill it with between 1-10 catalysts depending on the barge, for roughly 4-5 million isk a piece.
