Wow, so many pages...

Well, I'm going to throw into the mix and say "ROLES". More granularity and clearer explanations as to what each does. I had originally thought about roles in an organic way (sort of like the root system of a plant) that would allow you to click and string together roles for a person but that may be long. I did read earlier about an idea for a can that you could drag and drop roles into and think that would be cool as well.

A more clear way to link a series of roles into a title to save CEO's from having to do the same assigning over and over.

The ability to strip roles immediately.....that would be nice.

A clear interface to allow someone to rent/use a lab or manufacturing array and permissions that accompany it.

Ability to mass produce corp medals for members.

Ideally, I would love to see a tab that would be restricted to CEO's and Directors only. Items could be stored in a corp hangar/ corp hangar array that would only be seen by CEO's and directors.

It would also be nice to be able to label corporation storage individually instead of making them division based. and also set local access to them

I.E. on 1 pos i have 2 corporate storages, but I have to give access to them in pares of 7.
with 2 hangars i would like to be able to give 14 people each their own division, and lock them from the other players. and force a maximum space.

how i'd like to see this is like this

Right click the hangar => manage => chose (corp access, role access, individual access) and with individual access i can just drag and drop corp members to the tab they should have access to.

Also with pos fuel. id would be nice if there was an option where people can add fuel, but not take it......

If you ever get around to sorting out POS structures and permissions perhaps this might be considered (if its not thought to be to
much of a niche concept).
A special permission which can be granted to any Alliance member who can be granted access to POS weapons systems.
dependant upon the following.
1. They have the required skill.
2. Time limited permission. (Time limit granted by CEO or appropriate Director).
3. This must be an instant grant (not one with the ditzy 24hr. delay).
4. Instantly revocable at any point by the POS corps CEO or appropriate director however this would incur a "cool down" penalty
5. Easy interface i.e. drag and drop pilot icon into suitable window, apply selected time limit from 1 to 24hrs max. at any one
time.
6. Any pilot undergoing the 24hr. clearance prior to leaving a corporation in the Alliance or a member of a corporation which is
preparing to leave an alliance would be unable to be granted permissions.

Game play enhanced by enabling alliance corps members to assist each other more directly.

Risk vs. Reward also allows for the infiltrators to gain trusted status.
and affect directly the potential out come of a battle by shooting the wrong side and or not shooting at all.
It would be difficult to kill this person from within the shield as they have alliance permissions to be inside the bubble
especially as you cannot target anyone from inside it.

However the forced instant revoke of permission would stop the "traitorous" pilot from accessing any of the
system(s) balanced by the instant revoke of permission which would result in create a short cool down period before those
system(s) previously controlled by the now established "traitor" be taken up by another.

Some way to grant roles or remove roles to big blocks of names easily would be ideal.

As would some kind of CEO+director level feature for things like PI alts... My corp used to live in wormholes which means that A) we all had a stack of them B) noone knew if PI SLAVE X-Z belonged to one player or if his were the PI CLONEs or what, which was ofcourse made worse by the whole "11 toons in corp on 7 players with stacks of alts each, and then 2 guys leave... Now who do we need to kick to stop the intel leak???"

Alliance Contracts!

Either let us create buy / sell orders on the market that only alliance m8's can see --

OR (easier way / interim)

make it so alliance contracts last longer than 2 weeks!

Did I also mention moving stuff from a corp hanger to a trade window should be allowed? why do I have to move it to my ship or personal inventory to put in a trade window? I can contract it out of the corp hanger, why not trade out of it?

Just ran into this little gem. Apparently there is no role to accept corp contracts, which means that everyone can accept them. Please at least give us a role for this.

Only Contract Managers can accept on behalf of a corp, i.e. potentially spend corp ISK.

What you want is to limit visibility to certain people / groups.

Well, you should be using titiles, but aside from that it sounds like you really want to be able to put people into a hierarchy, and be able to move their sub-tree around, or prune it.

[Note that this sort of thing has been requested earlier in this thread by many people, and sadly is outside the scope of this UI Improvement thread.]

allow "safety guidelines"

for example:

It should be possible to set a limit roles for withdraw ISK from corp-account. (max per day/week)
To repeal limits (CEO set conditions) 2 or 3 player with a special role have to confirm exceptions.

Actually it is especially at POS not possible to set reasonable access rights, that are able on one side
to protect assets for theft on the other side to be able to act. What I mean is. You just have the chance,
to make the player able to act at the cost of safety. (Why cant player protect (with acess code) theyr ship in ship maintanance?).

Logs in hangar/assets are also very important for the integrity in every larger corp.


Make it possible to transfer LP/points to a LP-corp wallet.


special corp-purchases

The corp should be able to set corp-purchases.

for example:

A director set "buy tritanium for 3,50 ISK, on behalf of the corp, at station-xyz from all corpmates"

Transferring isk from corp wallet to another corp wallet is troublesome.
Why not add a right mouse option to transfer corp isk, just as we transfer corp isk to characters.

i was thinking about that today

Silly for the corp to have it own wallet divisions why not give the own toon more wallet divisions.
Even a Allinace wallet would be nice

no .... corp divisions are crucial for businesses that run varying programmes.

However, changing between wallets 'only' when in the wallet is freeking annyoing. Should have access to choose any wallett anytime,.

Also, think it got touched on before ... but another vote in favour in actually making corp shares 'useable' in a business manner.

Currently the 'number' of shares is a pointless feature in relation to how they should work, as share's can't be traded in anyway. They are solely there to dilute the payout or voting. (and that, only because you can't transfer shares around. So, for every change, you have to increase ad infinitum.

make shares tradable, on the market even. Copy the share structure of real corporates. Include both voting shares, and non-voting shares.

Leave it to the corp to publish their won accounts - the proof of pudding will be in the Share payouts each period (be that weekly, daily, or otherwise. And enable auto or manual share premiums.

I'm just one of many accountantys who play the game who would probably happily help setup a simple version of true corporate shares that could be implmented into the game. Not all at once, ... patch by patch.

The first step would be to be able to transfer shares between toons (maybe even restrict it within a corp initially, with the sole exception of returning shares once you've left a corp. Also, the option to grab back shares (at a set fee, maybe original price) after a character is out of game for a set period (maybe 6 or 12 months with no subscription) as an option.

Dockable POS, be able to dock at your own pos with limted dock slots, push the boat out walking about your own pos

Also i would like to see in eve is shield effects and views looking out of the station to see ships coming in and docking in real time that you would see if your undocked

I have seen a little on the forums and on the rumour mill that suggests that CCP are looking at changing the "corpmates may shoot eachother" mechanic to counter AWOXers. The apparent belief is that all corps will change to the same mechanic as the NPC corps. That is, in high sec you are a criminal for shooting at a corpmate. Much as I hate AWOXing, this mechanic doesn't work for me. At the moment you cannot force someone out of corp without them docking. Killing their pod is the only real way to force someone to dock. Thus if people can't shoot corp mates then there will be no way to force people out of corp if they prove to be a problem. This is totally separate to the issue of not being able to do training or tournaments or special events.

Fortunately there is an easy solution for this. It shouldn't require much extra code either. Make the ability to attack other corp mates a role you can assign to members or to titles. This allows for corp enforcers, games/training/events and for even AWOXers to continue operating. AWOXers would just have to work harder for their prizes. At the moment there is absolutely no way to stop an AWOXer even with tight screening methods. A clean API is to easy to set up and all they have to do is be accepted. At the moment you cannot even offer to help move a new member to your base since they could gank your transport.

AWOXing is making corps too paranoid to take new people which means new pilots are out in the cold. This is bad because we don't end up keeping them.

Not 100% a corp mechanic, but:

Allow boosters/ships with boosters in cargo in contracts.
