Double Clicking should open system/constellation/region in the Adjacent System/Constellation/Region tabs

A thing that recently jumped to my attention very frequently is that I cannot double click the systems in the Adjacent Systems tab in the system info window, and likewise not adjacent constellations or regions in the respective info window. Instead, I need to navigate my mouse to the tiny (i) icon or right click the line and go to Open Info.

This should be changed and a more intuitive double click should open the next info window. The same should obviously be the case for location info in the Location tab in Station info windows.

:: Chats ::

General improvements of Chat Management for Operators and usability and utility improvements:


  • If you add a character/corp/alliance to the Blocked/Muted list from the Peoples & Places or character/corp/alliance window, you should be able to add a reason just like when you add a character directly from the user list to the Blocked/Muted lists.
    • At the moment, it is not possible to add reasons to anything that an operator blocks/mutes from outside the the user list, which is very inconvenient in case you need to block corps/alliances from accessing your chat as other operators do not know for what reason these entities were blocked. A mail about the block/mute is a semi-solution, but they tend to go unnoticed or go missing in all the other mail spam you receive and they are not easily accessible from the chat window itself.
  • Just like in the user list of chats, if you press a (or several letters) letter, the list should skip to the first character/entity with that letter (or letter combination) in the Blocked/Muted list.
    • At the moment, this is not possible and if you have hundreds of blocked/muted entities in your list, the scrolling is quite extensive.
  • The right click menu for entries in the Blocked/Muted list only contains the option "Remove from Blocked/Muted". There need to be more options in that menu, but at the very least Show Info so that you can access more infos on the char/corp/alliance to add them to the Blocked/Muted list, for example.
  • It should be possible to have Mailing Lists connected directly to a chat. They are currently always 2 separate entities, but it is in many cases necessary to have a Mailing List together with the chat in order to receive more info (more details than you can add to the MOTD, for example), more explanations, more things to do. In this case, it should be possible for the Chat Operators to manage both the Chat and the Mailing List from the same window and they should share the same Blocked/Muted lists, for example.
  • In combination with this, it should also be possible to link Mailing Lists directly into a chat/MOTD and/or to ask people who join the chat whether they want to join the ML of the chat as well (standard notification window with the Do Not Show Again check box).
  • In the same manner, Operators should also be able to setup calendar events that show up to all people in the chat. With this, especially groups like NPSI fleets and public roams could setup events and fleets easier and wouldn't necessarily need to send out mails (ingame or out of game) or use the chat MOTD to list things like regular events and could reserve it for special occasions.

CTRL and ALT highlights weapon rack in the HUD

Whenever I try to use CTRL or ALT with the F-keys, I always have the problem of not seeing which rack I activate with which key. Thus, when I press the CTRL or ALT key, I would like to see the HUD light up like this in order to clearly see what pressing a key is doing and what I can do with this pressed key.

Show standings tags in the mailing list management window in the user list and access lists

I'm currently trying to maintain a mailing list. Part of that work is to keep recurrently checking whether there are people in the list that should not be there (now neutrals who recently left the allowed alliances, for instance). This means currently that I have to right-click -> Show Info every single character in the user list and check the Char info window. It works for now as the user count is fairly low, but with 10-20 pages of people, this would be unbearable.

Therefore, standing tags should be displayed behind the entries to easily see who is blue to you (and thus allowed), who is red/neutral and not allowed therefore.

Alternatively, the ML already support access and but people who leave an allowed entity are not kicked automatically from the mailing list. This should be changed. If you change from an allowed state into a prohibited state, you should no longer be able to be part of the ML and get booted automatically. Or the ML should send the Owner/Operators a summary of who left allowed status within xyz time. Whatever it is, the management of MLs need to improve.

Right click option "Show Transactions" in the orders tab

Right now, in order to view transactions for a particular item, you need go to the Transactions tab of the wallet and enter the item name in the small search box. Naturally, as it is an old functionality and UI part, the box is small and can't be widened, which makes entering long item names cumbersome. Furthermore, when you only enter parts of the name, the game starts laboriously searching for all the times with that exact phrase in the name, which, naturally can freeze your client for a fair bit of time and in the end, the game presents you with a long list of all items that have this particular name fragment in the name.

In order to make this easier and less clunky, I want to see the option "Show Transactions" added to the right click menu on one of your orders in the orders tab. This would ideally mean that you go directly to your wallet's transactions tab and that the game looks up this exact item and nothing else, that has a vaguely similar name.
