Suggestion: Let us assign a default skin per ship Keywords: Skins Note: As title suggests, let us assign a default skin per ship so we always look the part when blowing up in space. More often than not we forget to go through all those extra clicks and as a result our explosions don’t look as cool as they could have been. Also Karkur & Team, keep up the good work, we really appreciate what you are doing! ---

Suggestion: Overviews need their own dedicated icon. Keywords: UI, overview, icon, multiple overview Note: It is now more likely than ever before that people have overviews minimized. They use the same generic icon as scanners and other multi windows, which makes it hard to see what is what in the neocom. ![grafik](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/6/1/9/61917b198b4cd1cd009abdc1d9f3193389d3e694.png) Which icon is the overview here? ---

When we click on the fleet icon, could it default to join a fleet rather than form a fleet? Unless one ship fleets becomes normal, most people will be joining a fleet rather than making a fleet. ---

Suggestion: The right click menu for the combat hud icon ships should have a new option “Select”. Keywords: UI, combat hud icons Note: See here: ![grafik](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/9/b/c/9bcfc8d4e314d6f617af5a4567d667a35c4ddc29.jpeg) I have locked this ship already but there are several Dire Pithi Invaders in that room. Without looking and scrolling through the overview, you cannot figure out which ship puts the ewar on you if there are several doing or attempting the same ewar against you (this is particularly bad with ECM as this icon appears regardless of successful or unsuccessful ECM against you, and thus can have lots of entries.) ---

I believe if you ctrl+click it will select the correct one if it is locked already ---

IT does that but there are caveats: If you have multiple Dire Pithis that web and don’t web you, you can’t tell which is which because the first layer list does not have icons or other identifiers. You have to check the overview for icons or know the names of the elite frigates that typically web. When it comes to ECM, CTRL Click does not work at all. It tries to lock the listed targets but it can’t do that because I am jammed and the game apparently can’t select the ship that successfully applied ECM to my ship. ---

Ctrl + click is very helpful for me in PvP for defanging ECM. Whenever I see the ECM icon on my HUD I ctrl + click it to prelock every Griffin or EC-300 on the grid. Makes it much easier to clear EC-300 jams. ---

No. Would just promote more mass-multiboxing and afk gameplay. ---

No. Same reason as above. I’d like to see less automatition, more rewarding active gameplay and less mass-multiboxing. Shipboard compression is a bad game mechanic already, reasons given many times over in the discussion topics when the mechanic was introduced. No need to make it even automatic. ---

**Suggestion:** configurable client profiles per client & launch group **Keywords:** launcher, launch groups, client profile Currently you have to select the client profile per client before you launch a launch group.
