Change to how I do bookmarks... Thoughts?

I will. It’s at lvl.4 now and next lvl takes 8d 11h 38m. I’m only training skills that take 1d and 3d for now. It will be a while before I get into skills that take 4,5,6,7 and 8d’s.
But they still won’t have a 17 thousand kilometers falloff, lol

How I organize bookmark locations:

First if you have more than one account, you can share bookmarks between them. Start a new shared folder for Global Locations and then named groups for corps or individual group activities. For example;

Global - All owned characters invited
CEO - Your mains.
Mining - Your miners.
Defenders - The ones doing the ratting.
MBT - Group of individual characters “Mike, Bob, and Tim”

Setting access to these folders is simple using the Social → Access Lists
As others stated above, I use short code for mining belts:

KB2-A in my thought process is Kernite rich Belt in 2nd orbit A is the place holder B would be the second belt in that same orbit. VB8-C would be the third Veldspar Belt in the 8th orbit. All of these would only appear to my miner characters.

My defenders are the ones who use distance. I set them a perch some distance back from the field and mark it as KB2-A 500km. This allows them to see the enemies without immediate engagement. A few sniper perches are set inside the field to warp in close. If the defender is getting too damaged they back out to the 500km perch.

Finally all my safe spots for scanning are called Safe. The systems I mine without stations, I store cans in spots I called Depot, never make it easy for them to flip your can. I never lost a can yet. It is up to you how you want to do naming conventions. Whatever works for you, is the best for you.

Have fun!

Nice insight thank you :slight_smile:

But where does the other half of my M&M go? Do I have to split a green one, or can it be a reject yellow?

Or we can call it 17 ”AU.

AU is already used in the game, we’re unnecessarily complicating things by switching between km and AU in our distance measurements. Let’s stick to one notation!

“My ship is moving 10 nAU/s” is much clearer to everyone than 1500 m/s, don’t you think? :stuck_out_tongue:

Let’s unify all distance measurements in a true New Eden fashion while also immortalizing the Frostpacker clan: convert every distance measurement units (AU, km, m and so on) into Frostpack(s), where 1 Frostpack (F) equals 0.3048 meter.

(Of course you can add the usual measurements of B for billion, M for million, K for thousand and so on before it.)

:smirk: :wink: :blush:

It doesn’t really look like you are looking for help. The post looks more lie bragging about how you do it well.

They explained how they did it for reference, then they’re offering replies to legitimate feedback provided, outside of some minor confusion that was quickly cleared up for OP.

This is how you have an exchange of ideas. Do try to follow the relevant conversation.

I don’t bother with folders. Eve automatically displays whatever bookmarks you have saved for a system, so I just give them appropriate names. Gates start with G, Celestials with C, and so on.

Thus, a bookmark might be called ‘G - Uedama/Sivala - 20km’
which is basically a bookmark 20km from the Uedama/Sivala gate. In lowsec systems I always creat bookmarks 150km away from all the gates
so I can warp to those bookmarks, see if anyone is at the gate, and then can warp the rest of the way to the gate if I want.

Exactly.

A thread about bookmarks
 the most self-explanatory no-sweat-easy stuff in the whole game :roll_eyes:

With as many ways of personal notation as there are people doing it.

Never a bad idea to see if someone has a more efficient system.

Thanks
This has turned out to be an interesting thread. I like to see how other people do things. Big game, always better ways/things I didnt think of.
