Welcome

I was walking around my condo while creating grand market shames and I missed one simple thing. There is no Market view TV screen in there. Most activities in EVE require to often visit the Market, so i believe it would be cool if we would have Market TV type shortcut in the quarter similarly as PI have.

For me simple new TV screen with latest viewed market item price history chart displayed would be best. Or maybe Stock exchange like screen could be done where price of all "quick bar" items would be listed...

Another feature that i lack in my place is F10 starmap. There is a lot of empty space between table and the screen array where flattened starmap could be displayed (especially in Gallente one where is that nice glassy floor thing that could work as holo projector). that also would be a shortcut to the main map, but it also could view latest settings used in the main starmap window. Things as stars colors, statistics, tiles, sorv changes blinking and maybe current AP route marked would be showed. Same for system map...

I'm programming illiterate but i don't think that it would ad any workload to either client or server. Both features could be generated / updated only when source application is used (market window opened and item browsed or starmap is opened) and then data could be stored on client side (AP route tracking may create issues).

I think that would add a lot to quarter usability as it would contain almost all tools that eve have and would finally start to create a complete feeling that person sitting on the sofa is the most important one in galaxy and have whole New Eden in a reach of a hand.

Please feel free to comment my ideas.
