The "always show" is a great addition, amongst many other good UI improvements. Great job!

<3 the advanced search btw. Every time i am drunk and forgot where i parked my ship i enter "ships" and it tells me where it is!

edit: regarding naming jumpclones. there is sadly a bug where it resets the name when you jump to the clone. So whatever clone you are currently in will end up without name if you jump away from it.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

Lots of nice changes all together there, quite a few will benefit me and I see alot of use for all of them, great devblog :)

One thing...

supspect?

One other 'little thing' I'd like to see is a separate area in the hangar for mods I just pulled off a ship (say "hangar floor")

I dock, pull off a few mods, switch ships, have to search the whole hangar for those mods (because I'm not space rich and have lots of spares) re-mount then proceed...

The idea would be that recently un-mounted mods would stay in a separate window until I un-dock or clear the window, would be really helpful in some situations where I want the same mods, but on a different ship.

An alternative solution to this would be an option to disable the auto-sort feature either entirely or for specific inventory containers, until (iirc) the great inventory mangling you had to manually sort via the rclick menu, if you didn't then the most recent items placed somewhere would be at the bottom of the list (unless there were gaps from you removing other items in the container previously) and be accordingly easy to find again right away. In general I find the current auto-sorting to be far more of a nuisance than it's ever a use as organising your inventory according to personal taste is now impossible. Whilst a well-intentioned one it's a feature that would also benefit greatly from an option turn off if we wanted.

Plz, another 'little thing' to make our lives easier in certain use cases?

Not a bad idea, but you can already achieve the same by keeping your mods packaged in your hangar, and sort by quantity. This way all the mods that you pull off a ship will end up on top of the list, since they are unpackaged.

Another feature of the inventory I use a lot is the filtering, I've got filters for high, med, and low slot modules which helps a lot with ship fitting. (I live in a POS so no cans available)

jumpclone naming is already on TQ in the last update you did .... perhaps you mean the names will actually stay after you change JC's ??

T3's need to be versatile so no rigs are necessary ... they should not have OP dps and tank

ABC's should be T2, remove drone assist, separate HAM's and Torps range, -3 HS for droneboats

I know about advanced search keywords but I almost never remember them and looking for reference in devblog or forums is too much of a hassle so I very rarely use them. And here comes CCP 'teh awesome' karkur and gives me a tooltip. Oh boy!

And separating scanners into separate windows? I would argue it's one of the best UI improvements ever.

Now, if I only could find power in me to log in...

No. I probably didn't make it clear enough that the last section is already out on TQ.

I've not written "this kind" of devblog since June I think, so there are a few things that we've added since then and have not told you guys about. I noticed that some people didn't know about those changes, so I figured I'd list them there.

makes sense.. any chance of making the naming persistent when you change to another JC.. it gets annoying having too rename the same clone over and over and over.....

I'll look into it... but I'm pretty sure it's because technically it is a new clone that is being created... but maybe we can do some magic P
