Hi there,

as a mission runner I sometimes have to save the positions of up to 5 rooms per mission,filled with wrecks for my salvager, and about one or two hours later I don“t need those bookmarks anymore. And VERY often I just forget to delete those locations right after the salvage-job is done, so I have to delete hundrets of unneeded locations sometimes.
Today I thought it would be really cool if I could set a time how long a position should be saved right in the window where I can set the name of the bookmark. There could be a box to set a bookmark to permanent, last 1 hour, last one day or something that way.

Just a tiny idea, but it would make my mission-runner-life much easier =)

What you could do for now is just create a folder in your places tab, perhaps call it Missions and save the bookmarks there, which at least separates them from the others in the list. You can even save them as a corp bookmark now so everyone in your corp can use them if you're using alts or corpies to salvage.

Then its just a case of keep that folder popped open and just delete them when done.

I suppose timed bookmarks could be useful for scouts on pvp roams as well, they set up a few in a system for the fleet and set a few hours on them so they expire and don't clog up the list, if they don't expect to ever use them again.
