Little things / Small QoL suggestions

When you zoom in to look at your ship or anyone elses ship it zooms into where the kill mail marks are located…

Suggestion: War dec requirements

Keywords: war, eligibility, small scale
Note: If eligible for should be allowed to declare

If a corp or alliance is eligible for war they should be allowed to declare it as well. Seems strange that you can put a target on your chest but you not allowed to aim back? It would also stimulate small scale/casual high sec pvp, clean up abandoned POS, reintroduce a demand for star bases and in turn help stimulate the economy. It would stimulate the economy in the standard ways of isk loss due to property loss but also fuel, charters and the price of the war dec. As it sits, the system is set up for either big blocks or people that are dedicated to high sec war that can field fleets to defend 1b+ structures. The people that want to try out more aspects of eve on their own level and scale without being swallowed into sov alliances are being denied. For people like me that has a touch of social anxiety, being able to do more things with out being surrounded by hundreds or thousands of “friends” would be a massive improvement. I think it would also give people reasons to try out their hand at leading a corporation or eventually an alliance when there are more things to do on a small scale while they settle in. Sorry for the novel.

Suggestion: Ability to Set Destination With A Hotkey

Keywords: UX, Hotkeys, Shortcuts,
Note: Useful when playing multiple characters and FC changes Destination on a whim

When I’m on a fleet with multiple characters it is incredibly time consuming to set destination from the right click menu. Make this hotkey function when [keybind] + left click is performed on any system/structure that is linked in chat or broadcasted travel to.

Suggestion: Ability to Add to Watchlist With A Hotkey

Keywords: UX, Hotkeys, Shortcuts,
Note: Useful when playing multiple characters and FC links a titan to keep at range on

When I’m on a fleet with multiple characters it is incredibly time consuming to add someone to watchlist from the right click menu. Make this hotkey function when [keybind] + left click is performed on any character that has typed in chat, is linked in chat, from chat member list or from fleet members window.

QOL update: Fitting simulations only show main cargo hold. Ships that don’t primarily use the main cargo hold are not represented properly…

i.e. Fleet hanger specialized cargo holds

Suggestion: Adjust Warp To Hotkey to allow use on Fleet Members

Keywords: UX, Hotkeys, Shortcuts, Fleet
Note: Useful when you use hotkeys to navigate the game

Whilst on a fleet and you want to warp to other members you are forced to use the right click menu, instead allow the use of the Warp To hotkey that already exists. Make this hotkey function when [keybind] + left click is performed on any character that is on an overview, typed in chat, on your watchlist or from fleet members window that are a member of your fleet and is a valid warp target.

Suggestion: Filter Groups

Keywords: UI, Inventory, Filter
Note: Useful when you have many different filters

Allow Item filters to be grouped into named sub folders so that when participating in different activities I can see only the filters that would be appropriate, I don’t need to see my PI filters when piloting a Hel and I don’t need to see module filters when sorting materials for industry jobs.

Suggestion: Fitting Management window inconsistent with other windows behaviour

Keywords: UI, Hotkey, Shortcuts
Note: Useful when you use hotkeys to navigate the game

The Fitting Management window is inconsistent with other windows behaviour. With other windows when you press the keybind for the window while it is already open and has focus it will close the window, for the Fitting Management window this is currently not true and needs to be addressed.

Suggestion: Ability for fleet and wing commanders to be able to direct fleet and wing members.

I can regroup and fleet warp, but I can’t have a wing or fleet KAR 5k or Orbit 15k, allowing me as fleet or wing boss to do this would go a long way in fleet coordination and follows similar rules as fleet warping.

Suggestion: Add Global Setting For Chats

Keywords: UI, Setting
Note: Useful when you want all your chats to behave the same including newly joined channels or PM’s

Specifically add a global setting for all chats for Show Compact Member List and Message Portraits in the user interface section of the main menu.

Keywords: ui, multibuy, fitting
Note: Ability to buy missing items

Would be nice to have the “buy missing” filter when multibuying at ship fitting window

This x1000

Suggestion: Ability to select and move a specific amount of multiple items at once.

Keywords: ui, hangar, PI, items
Note: Speed up PI, etc

It would be great to be able to shift-click multiple stacks of items and select x amount of all to drag from your hangar to a ship cargo hold, and from a customs office to a launchpad.

Suggestion: drag and drop a bookmark from my people & places into inventory

Keywords: ui, bookmarks
Note: give us back this feature will make the game richer

Hi, the possibility to drage&drop BM to inventory will allow us to buy/share/contract bookmarks,
for example it can improve exploration by creating an interest for “unique places on New Eden”,
or activities like a scout who can tell me exactly where and when are valuable BlackHoles,
it can also works with spying, like the cloaked scout can BM enemies places and sell back this info to somebody :smiley:

Suggestion: Option from CCP to make the cursor bigger

Keywords: ui, mouse, cursor, QoL
Note: it can make the game more playable

Hi, I tried playing EVE Online in 4K and the cursor is so small I can’t see it;
so: stuck at 1920x1080
I’m not alone, and as time goes on, more people will have 4K-capable displays.
I know this is an old problem, possibly due to coding issues, but you can certainly add an UI part that fit to the old one.
I know of several external software programs that do this, but it’s not “clean”.
it would be much better if this functionality could come directly from CCP.

Suggestion: Increased limit to corp > Alliance contracts. Or an ADV contracting skill

IS it maybe worth time to revisit and maybe look at increasing the number of contracts a corp can have up to their alliance?
We all know during war times especially large alliances rely heavily on fitted ships being seeded so members can quickly reinforce.
Corp contracts is the easiest method for this but 500 slots fill quickly and also sell quickly when there’s a good brawl to be had.
So maybe time to either think of increasing that to 1k or even 2k per corp or even an advanced contracting skill that can give individuals more than 21 slots?

Suggestion: Abandon colony from Planetary Industry window

Keywords: ui, pi, QoL
Note: Right click on planet → Abandon Colony

My alliance is relocating. I have to move 120PI colonies. Going into the planet and abandoning the colony by decommissioning the command center is sluggish.

Suggestion: bring back Captain’s Quarter cuz it’s nice

Keywords: Place to be, capsuleer, QoL,
Note: Because not every cool ideas has to be big

Captain’s Quarter don’t has to be the biggest thing off the world,
the old one was cool enough to let our mind invent our next capsuleer adventure;

_ First, it’s cool to watch our actual ship on a human scale,
it make the “WOW effect” and magnifies developpers work
(especially accurate since SKINR + LEGION skins improvements + global redesign, etc..)

_ This game is dark, so providing a way to watch our ships from a more illuminated perspective improve things.
plus it will change a bit because most every stations have the same inside ^^

_ Watching the Corpo’s adds (freelance missions?) + THE SCOPE + bad guys and pirates news on the TV from the couch is priceless (at least put also a NES channel on that TV).

_ Also we could have a projector who project some selected market’s prices in real time on a wall
(and a place for store clothes, for now my uniform is lying on the ground in a corner of the storage)

_ I’m NOT a POD; I’m a poor lonesome Capsuleer, i’m a long long way from home,
and this poor lonesome capsuleer has got a long long way to roam.

Long story short:
Captain’s Quarter work so you have the PoW;
it don’t has to be big or OnLy EfFiCiEnT, it has to be fun, it add perspectives to the game,
now just add some ship 3D projections + usefull options,
take advantage of it to add Omega + NES adds + the perspectives of some new ideas,
and please let us fit our ship from the ground
like we said in France: “ça n’mange pas d’pain”
