Feature Suggestion: AI Pilot Companions for Alt Characters — Powered by MCP

Summary:  
EVE players often manage multiple characters (alts) for support, scouting, logistics, hauling, and industry tasks — but juggling them in real time is clunky, repetitive, and heavily manual. I propose a new system: AI Pilot Companions, driven by the MCP (Model Contextual Protocol) engine, allowing players to assign AI behavior to one or more alts on the same account or across linked accounts.

This system turns your alts into smart, context-aware copilots — not just simple autopilot scripts, but persistent, evolving AI agents that respond to your playstyle, objectives, and environment.  
👥 Alt Support — Smarter, Not Harder

Every EVE veteran knows the pain of multi-boxing:

```
Clicking back and forth just to warp two ships

Managing boosts, salvaging, hauling while in combat

Moving materials or market orders between hubs

```

With AI Companions:

```
You assign an alt to follow you, support you, or run a parallel operation — no micromanagement required.

The AI learns and adapts from your MCP history (playstyle, routes, combat patterns, market behavior).

You gain the benefits of multiboxing without the tedium — while still needing to make strategic decisions and manage risk.

```

🧠 User-Selectable AI Models — Tiered Options

Players could choose from several AI profiles depending on playstyle and subscription tier. Each one is customizable and upgradeable over time.  
AI Tier Cost Role Focus Features  
Basic DroneMind Free or low-cost Warp-follow, looting, salvage Basic mimic behavior, manual triggers  
FleetMate Alpha Omega add-on PvE/PvP Anchoring, auto-target assist, simple ECM/remote rep  
HaulerBot Plex-based or ISK rental Industry/Logistics Auto-hauling between hubs, contextual pickups/drop-offs  
TradeBrain Premium Market/Industry Regional price tracking, passive hauling, smart arbitrage suggestions  
Combat AI+ (Experimental) High-tier PvP Threat analysis, evasive maneuvers, fleet support logic

Each AI model would be:

```
Modular — select behavior modules (follow, scan, salvage, scout, attack assist)

Persistent — learning from your activity over time

Override-capable — you can jump in and take control anytime

```

🔧 Technical Feasibility

```
MCP already models context and long-term player behavior.

The AI Pilot layer would operate similarly to advanced fleet commands, behavior trees, and conditional scripting — governed by your MCP signature and selected behavior profile.

Data could be cached client-side or hosted securely via CCP servers, allowing both on-demand and persistent background operation.

AI actions would remain bound to legal API calls and within EULA limits — no automation abuse, just enhanced assistive behavior for alt accounts.

```

🪐 Immersion Potential

AI Pilots could come with distinct personalities, lore backgrounds, or racial themes:

```
A Stoic Amarr logistical bot that quotes scripture while boosting

A sarcastic Gallente salvage AI that complains about your loot choices

A rogue Triglavian “echo agent” that grows more independent over time

```

Players could even unlock cosmetic UI skins or “AI voices” as part of loyalty programs or events.

TL;DR:  
Turn your alt into something more — an intelligent wingman, scout, hauler, or analyst that works with you, not just for you. AI Pilot Companions powered by MCP offer smarter multiboxing, deeper immersion, and more engaging solo or small-gang play — while respecting the complexity and player-driven nature of EVE.

NPC alt implementation:  
After months of crushing pirate incursions, you catch the attention of a reclusive and powerful figure within the Amarr Navy. Through the MCP system, he begins to interact with you directly — sending reinforcements during tight battles, and granting exclusive missions no one else sees. Over time, as your loyalty and behavior align with Imperial ideals, he assigns you a personal protégé — a clone-born AI pilot modeled after a fallen Paladin, designed to serve _you_. This AI, powered by your own MCP history and this figure’s behavioral framework, becomes a loyal alt character you can deploy as a **copilot** , smart fleetmate, or logistics wing across the galaxy. It mirrors your strategic tendencies, references shared history in combat dialogue, and evolves over time. This isn’t just an NPC helper — it’s a **living legacy of your actions** , forged into code, bonded to your cause, and ready to follow you anywhere in New Eden.  
But more than just a tactical wingman, the AI speaks in local — subtly or boldly, depending on your style — backing your presence. In local chat, what it says will triggered off your own words.  
Its tone, vocabulary, and even level of sass evolve from your MCP behavior — a true digital reflection of your legacy.

It’s called fleet warp…

No, just…no. You’re playing an MMO with 30,000 other players on any given day. Join a corp, make friends…

Yes, please try that in wormhole space or nullsec. Let me know how it works out for you…

Basically what you are wanting is a bot, and we have more than enough of those as it is…

So, input broadcasting on steroids?  
No thanks.  
Multiboxing should be hard and involve a certain amount of hassle.

If a player can do it npcs shouldn’t.

If you can’t handle the amount of accounts you need get friends

Please go create your own game. Thank you.

We need less mass-accounting in the game, not more and especially not more powerful massmultiboxing. That crap should be nerfed into the ground.
