I made a little tool that might help you find target.

Open this using the IGB: http://www.eve-crp.com/

After trusting the site, use the link on the top left corner

Be mild on the feedback !

It should also show npc activity within a 4 jmup radius above average traffic routes and ship and pod kills which could indicate gate camps or other ppv activities. All of this should indicate where possible pvp action for you could be.

Instead of checking every single system yourself, you can get a quick overview of what is happening within a 4 jump radius of where you are

I'll try this out in-game soon.

I must admit I was expecting sage but moralistic advice along the lines of "don't get TOO drunk".

It would be nice if it also showed other people using the app at the same time on the map, so that people looking for fights could actually find each other.

That could be easily done, but then I should make a mechanism so that people can opt-out, and it would mean I would have to start logging where you guys are, which I do not want to do.

+ imagine one guys uses the tool, you think it is a target, you go there, and actually he is in a 50man gang :)

BOOM

Let's keep i simpel for now, and see how it can be made better. An opion, is to make a second one with thea feauture, so people can choose which one to use

Then what the heck am I doing solo-roaming?

Actually, now that I think about it, I could do it the other way arround, show people from your own corp or allaince on that map so an FC can see where his scouts are

And another question to you guys, how do you feel about looking 4 jumps arround you like this. I could make it 5 or more. Is 4 enough?

This definitely has sparked my curiosity... I will give it a try tonight, once I have consumed enough boosters, aka Johnnie Walker, for a nice evening roam. Pirate

I made a few changes. Biggest change is that is now is readable in high sec too. Due to too many systems and possible sjumps, the navigator was overloaded with info, now it will adjust according to how mnay systems are near you.

Systems with ice belts are marked now too

You got any other ideas to improve this?

Awesome work. The DotLAN radar is just a bit too much information at once.

I know sometimes it's difficult to realize just how much you spend on incidental things each month or year, but seriously, EVE is very cheap entertainment compared to most things... If you are a smoker, smoke one less pack a week and pay for EVE, with money left over to pick up a cheap bundle of flowers for the EVE widow upstairs.

I like it, very useful,.

What time period is the NPC count for, last 1 hour?

What's classed as above average traffic?

What additional options for player activity are possible to add?
