Suggestion: “Market Order Completed” and “Market Order Expired” notifications
Keywords: market, ui
Note: When I have many orders placed, it’s difficult to spot when it’s time to repost an order

Suggestion: Let us place consumables / deployable items on our ship hotkey bars.
Keywords: consumables, deployables, MTU, MTUs, hotkeys
Note: Having to open your inventory window and drag your MTU out every time to use it is just really silly. Why can’t I stick the thing on one of my ships hotkey bars? I don’t use them myself, but items like drugs etc should be able to be put there too. Why is the UI so bad with things like this?

Suggestion: Corp icon next to Agent’s name in Standings list
Keywords: Character sheet, standings, UI
Note: In the character sheet, the list of standings for agents gives no indication of who they work for, and finding the (eg) Thukker Mix agent you have the highest standing with can be a pain.

I like my pinned windows to be transparent , so I can see whats going on in space behind them.
I don’t want a “solution” that makes my spaceship game look like excel.
A solution suitable for both of us would be to have a second slider for pinned transparency.
The current slider continuing to apply to unpinned windows only as it does now.

Allow the “Locations in this system” window to be narrower ( half what it is now )
Its default minimum width is too fat IMO.
I often force it down to half its current “minimum” width by snapping it to other windows, but this is a pain.
esp when you dc and have to start again

Suggestion: Make systemnames in system-changed notices a clickable link
Keywords: chat, location-change
Note: Useful to easily access information about or set destination to previous systems
to make navigating back to a system i just visited a tad easier, it would be handy if the names of the systems in the notices in localchat about entering a new system would be a clickable link

Suggestion: Tradable Storyline missions.
Keywords: Missions, Storyline, Standing, LP, Social.
Note: Ability to outsource your stroryline mission. Add the ability to offer it for puplic view, if it’s accepted and completed you recieve the faction standing bonuses from the agent but without the negative standing hit to the opposing factions, however any NPC bounties, NPC drops (tags) negative standing, all the LP, isk (+bonus), and any item reward goes to the player that completed it.
The standing balance game in eve is horrid, this might add some social and fun aspect to it, rather than turning them down. Waste is bad right? Someone else might want to run them.

They added new ore and ice mining bot specialization skills years ago at this point, adding a new salvage bot specialization skill would not be that hard. They add new skills all the time. New skills is what gives people who’ve been playing 10+ or 15+ years something new to do with their queue(s)… I know as a 7 year player I appreciate when new skills to train are added to game. O_o
Read the title of the thread, this not a small thing.
k, fine. How’s THIS for a little thing, then:
Suggestion: some sort of warning when one’s drones are about to die
Keywords: drones, alarm sounds, warnings, indicators, anything
Note: my incursion fleet (in VG mode) lost about 20 total drones tonight because the Sansha Incursion aggro was going crazy haywire compared to usual and drone recall was borked (thanks, DDOSer(s)!).
Would be very nice to have some sort of warning, be it audio or visual (or both!) for when drones are being rapidly destroyed. Say… a sort of drone armor warning, let’s say (forget shield and hull, too much to keep track of, just armor would be enough to let you know drone(s) = taking serious damage.
If a sound for drones taking epic damage is too distracting with all the other sounds (inb4 EVE has sound? jokes), then a visual indication would be nice. Yes, there’s red bars like our watchlist bars, but A) those are delayed, and B) when incursion aggro (or sleeper or triglavian) aggro swaps to one of your drones, you often don’t get any warning from the HP bars because the drones are gone in 2 or 3 shots. I’ve seen a drone die once or twice where the drone window went from 100% / 100% / 100% hp down to… no drone! in a single server tick’s time.
In tonight’s case, a fleetmate lost a drone, hit recall, recall wasn’t working because the servers are still borked from the DDOS, 2 more drones died before they finally came in… other people lost 1 or 2 or 3 because they’re multiboxing to keep the fleet going because we don’t have enough warm bodies after the last 10 days… I personally lost 1 acolyte out of 10, no biggie… but 2 medium shield bot IIs (already replaced)… pain in the ass for logis who are trying to rep the rest of the fleet to lose their own drones to eysturs in an OTA that we can’t hack anymore because it was a “little thing” to add the hacking game to the OTA hack cans, btw… etc. etc. etc. you get the idea. maybe the whole drone window flashes a bit. Anything. Throw us a line here, CCPls, thanks.
I’ll save my “please give FCs a way to assign a DDD (drone bunny) slot in fleet (say one per squad) so that we can assign our drones nice and easy now like we can launch then with the default drone group launch key” (thanks for that, CCP!)… “or else a nice ‘please give each fleet member a way to assign their drones to the same person they just assigned them to last in the same fleet’ option.”… because I’ve suggested it once or twice before in threads such as this… doesn’t seem like it’s ever going to happen. Oh, I’ve got another brand new one, too! What was it… well, I could make 3 posts about the hypernet, but meh. Nah, was something else. Will come to me.

Yes please. This would have saved me 4 Augmented Acolytes earlier.

Suggestion: Make it possible to drag and drop Access List from the AL-settings window onto structure profile list entries in the Structure Browser.
Keywords: UI, access lists, access list management, structure browser, structure profiles
Notes: It is quite confusing why you cannot do that. You have to d&d the access lists on each and every individual structure setting and save every page to fill a structure profile with access lists. It would be much more convenient if you could just drag and drop the ALs on profiles, apply that profile to the structure settings and then adjust specific settings like taxes or remove ALs from specific services.

Suggestion: Make it possible to drag systems, structures, stations from the Search results window.
Keywords: UI, Search bar, search results, dragging
Notes: You can search for something with the Search bar. Dragging Alliances, Corps, Chars, Items works fine, but you cannot drag Systems, Stations or Structures. Instead, you have to open the Show Info of these entities and drag them from there.

Suggestion: Apply Skill Points defaults to number of points for next skill level
Keywords: UI, default, number entry
When I apply skill point to a skill I normally want to skill it up to the next level.
Rather than just display the number of skill point for next level as text
pre-populate the value in the input field
so I just have to OK to take skill to next level
value in input field should be capped by number of available skill points of course

You’re welcome to waste your time. A thread like this is looking for misspellings and things of that nature.
Very specifically NOT things that require any sort of design or approval.
Suggestion:
Save Shortcuts to a file to import on my other characters
Keywords:
Settings, Shortcuts,
Notes:
Having just reinstalled cause it was running through steam instead of standalone EVE. Knew I would have to redo all my window set ups and import my overview, but then i got to doing my shortcuts on only 2 of MANY characters in my accounts took 30 minutes to just get my mains parodied across the other characters and have 3 or 4 more active characters I’ll slowly change into my personal shortcuts but it being a spreadsheet of command and shortcut, figure this could be a small QoL thing someone might want to tackle in their time at the office.
This might be fixed by setting up the launcher profiles or whatever but it should be simple in game solution to import a saved file of my shortcuts from my main like my overview.

You can indeed backup and restore your settings - A tool like this makes it super simple.
I still think this is a good idea - more of our settings should have in-game options for import/export.

Counterpoint- it may be deliberately to make it impossible to accidentally spend SP. You currently have to make the conscious decision to type a value into the field, then click apply.
Suggestion: Bookmarks need a “Default Location” where bookmarks are being saved to regardless of what location you set before.
Keywords: UI, bookmarks, saving bookmarks
Notes: I find it rather annoying that saving locations for bookmarks carry over between different saving sessions. When I saved a bookmark into a specific folder, that folder is now the new standard even though I do not want to save the next bookmarks into that folder. Instead of this behavior, the saving location should default back to either the main folder or a specifically set folder.

Maybe so, but Karkur has clearly implemented some pretty “big” quality of life improvements from user-suggestions in this thread and the previous threads and back on the now “old” forums before.
Hell, even the assign favorite drone group and launch those drones with a single keyboard press is a pretty major QoL change, even if it was fairly easy to add to the shortcuts list. And who knows, maybe it wasn’t so easy? With that POS/drone code, you never know.
