Broadcast - no longer have to open fleet window but a 3 buttons around our capacitor. Players are able to change which broadcast they want on their capacitor based on fleet “i.e. shield reps / armor reps / etc.” Please and ty. ---

There are buttons to broadcast. They’re on the bottom of the broadcast window, which you should have up to see the FC’s broadcasts anyway. ![snippy2](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/3/7/5/375dd53b43c4eb764339c47d786e3803a6ea5f35.jpeg) You also have the ability to assign keyboard shortcuts to the various broadcasts, including shield, armor, and cap. ![snippy1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/7/d/4/7d452deb154ef94b1f124044888e3b5bf85ea246.jpeg) Enjoy. ---

understand you can assign shortcuts… how much easier would it be with 49300303 shortcuts already assigned to have something on your hud? How many icons on your hud are not used currently? A visual representation of that purpose would go a long way for new and old players alike 🙂 ---

You could just move/condense the fleet window next to your capacitor…? ---

How many icons aren’t used? None of them, they’re all used, some for multiple purposes. Fleet broadcast buttons are appropriately in the Fleet window, which is up when you need it and closed when you do not. If you’re not in fleet, the broadcast buttons are useless, thus would simply clutter the HUD. Optionally, fly logi. Don’t need to broadcast when you’re watch listed and able to call for reps over comms. 😇 Edit: The FPV button is actually useless. I stand corrected. ---

If you think having them in fleet window " opening " something else makes sense, to each their own. Cheers. Clutter the hud? not too cluttered to me 🙂 If not in a fleet it won’t show up 🙂 ---

“Why does everything you don’t need all the time need to be on the HUD?” B/c So many things in the game are currently in the hud (sarcasm). “the broadcast buttons are useless, thus would simply clutter the HUD” Where do you see clutter? But then again… i don’t play on a wooden pc and look at the awesome game on a 49inch gaming monitor. This is English. fyi. 🙂 ---

> [@Your\_Ex-Girlfriend](#): > > ptionally, fly logi. Don’t need to broadcast when you’re watch listed and able to call for reps over comms. 😇 Well, at your gameplay, you can put everyone in the watchlist (that’s cool), but when you have a full fleet, you can’t watch everyone (255). So sometimes, think about the big picture. I know it’s not easy to think about other gameplay when you don’t have an interest in it and I respect that. Fly safe. ---

> [@Neoxyde](#): > > Well, at your gameplay, you can put everyone in the watchlist (that’s cool), but when you have a full fleet, you can’t watch everyone (255). No one watchlists everyone, don’t be absurd. The purpose of the watchlist is completely defeated if you watch thhe entire fleet. This is basic sense here. As logi you watchlist the FC, people the FC tells you to watchlist, _ **and other logi** _. In most bigger fleets, the FC even gets a pre-lock as soon as the fleet drops warp > [@Neoxyde](#): > > So sometimes, think about the big picture. I know it’s not easy to think about other gameplay when you don’t have an interest in it and I respect that. Ever followed your own advice? I know it’s not easy to not see how things are used in the game, when you’re only focused on your tiny little part of it. When you’ve done it all, it becomes a lot easier to see the whole picture that the narrow minded simply cannot grasp. If you zoom out, you’ll find that “big picture” you’re looking at is just a painting in an entire gallery. ---

Or, just use the tools provided. Tell me, do you keep the fleet window open to see broadcasts during fleets? I don’t know about you, but the fleets I engage in and with, you’d better not be trying to find the called target among the hundreds of reds on the overview. You lock the target straight from the broadcast window. Now, we deduce that you only need fleet broadcast buttons while you’re in a fleet, because some things are absurdly obvious I shouldn’t need to state them, but here we are 🙄. Now, when we take the two logical positions of “you should have the fleet broadcast window open” and “the broadcast buttons are only needed in a fleet,” tell us what good they do on the HUD at all times? Lastly, I don’t know where y’all got the stupidity that the watchlist was for the whole fleet, but don’t make up arguments I never made. ---

So you want broadcast to open up on the capacitor when fleet is created? ---
