Little things / Small QoL suggestions

Suggestion: Add a new Compression Only Service Module to Upwell Structures or Mobile Compression like an MTU
Keywords: Structures, Deployable, Mining, other
Note: Many of the Alliances and Corps require that they own a structure that can refine. A smaller (lower cost) service module that can specifically compress ores would be a benefit. This would be beneficial to small mining groups, as well, that don’t all have their own individual Orcas and Rorquals to mine in Frigates, Barges and Exhumers. They’d drop all ores (Asteroid, Moon, Gas, Abyssal, etc.) in a structure and then compress that ore for transport or bring a small deployable like an MTU that would offer limited compression range to small teams.

This would eliminate the need to anchor a POS and keep a compression ship available during hostilities and could be used in any structure, even if it’s not a refinery.

  • Examples:
  1. Small LS team anchors an Astrahus for defense and mines, in small ships, they can compress and export but not refine.
  2. NS Alliances at war dont want to use Capital Ships for compression, miners can still moon mine and compress in an Athanor, so less impact to market changes during wars.
  3. WH miners could huff gas without needing to bring a porpoise all the time.
  4. HS Corps and Individuals only mine and then export materials, so a smaller modules would be lower cost to build and operate.

Many, many more examples could listed.

This does nothing to address lower yields from not having a booster, while still addresses the needs for all groups.

No

And to your cursor point, that wont happen either. CCP at this point cant fix it

Suggestion: Adjust Dock/Jump 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 jump through a bridge from other members you are forced to use the right click menu, instead allow the use of the Jump/Dock hotkey that already exists. whether its a titan bridge, a cov ops bridge or an industrial one allow the use of [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 bridge target that your current ship is eligible to use.

SOE Arc mission “Marked for Death” states (when you ‘track’ the mission) “You need to destroy the Amarr Tactical Outpost”; however, you need to destroy all enemies ending in Izia Tabar. No need to destroy Outpost - can’t even fire on it with drones.

Suggestion: Rearrange launch groups in Launcher

Keywords: Launcher, groups
Note: Useful to arrange different groups together

When, for instance, I want to launch some of my cyno alts, it would be great if they appear below each other in the groups dropdown menu. Some were created ages past and sits at the top of the list, some have been created recently and sit at the bottom of the list.

Keyword: inventory

When in space and opening a container/MTU, the inventory for all the moon drills in system opens (even when not in range), please make that go away.

Keyword: Folders in station inventory

Hi can we have the ability to create folders when in the station inventory rather than using station containers to separate items. At the moment I use over hundreds of station containers in the stations just to separate all the items I have. I am a hoarder in game so thats why I need alot of station containers to separate out things.

Can you please explain to me why

As you are not one of ccp colleague they might take my suggestion seriously

The cursor size is hardcoded into the original database. Its been asked multiple times for years and ccp just cant touch it without probably breaking the game

  • Plus 50/75/100 m3 drone inventory for the Proteus Drone Synthesis Projector subsystem to bring the Proteus back in line with other cruisers like the Stratios and others. It cannot bring 5 medium drones for a complete drone size set which other cruisers do have. Why is a T3 top of the line ship so damn nerfed?

  • X2 minimal ore hold for the Hulk. With maximum bonus it cannot handle 2 cycles which is insane for the top of the line miner and hours of constant screen switching when multi-boxing already with 2-3 accounts. I understand the model differences in the Exhumer lineup but it feels very neglected when looking at what the bonus systems and crystals can boost in output. Let them miners be miners man. Nom nom nom. these boots are made for walking but they can’t take 5 steps. Feels like a lineup overhaul is needed because it all doesn’t make much sense. Why does a lesser miner have better specs for stable operations than the top of the line model? That’s just bullying man hahaha

Suggestion: Remove the skill window popup/tooltip in player inventory
Keywords: ui, skills, inventory, extreme irritation
This popup is the most r-worded ui element I have ever come across, and I won’t let it go at this point: it pops up over whatever you were doing and BLOCKS YOUR INTERACTION WITH THE INVENTORY. For example: if you were scrolling in your inventory, the popup window appears where your cursor is and stops your scrolling. If you were hovering over inventory items for other informative tooltips or browsing, the skill tooltip blocks your view.

This UI feature is so astronomically dumb I’m suffering a f****** stroke just typing this out

Suggestion: increase the number of shared location folders from 3 to at least 6.

Reason: Signal cartel has 6 folders of rescue cache’s in Jspace and it’s annoying to change between folders in every wh in order to find the rescue cache.

suggestion: put corresponding numbers on drones in the “Drones in space” window and under the drones on their targets.

Reason: will be able to know which drone in can move to which target.

suggestion: add a way to collate the list of Moon Minerals,

Reason: in some system this list is very long and if I want to move specific items from a can I hacked into the ships haul I need to stretch the window quiet a lot, and screen space is limited XD.

Making it so that notes are visible is the best idea

This could be implemented in a similar way to the corporate hangars where a player “rents” a hangar instead of a corp. Then is allowed to add an ACL to that hangar. If rent is not up to date and the rental expires then all the contents are delivered back to the character the initially rented the hangar.

apologies. my mistake.
deleted the post and made 3 new ones with 1 suggestion in each :slight_smile:

Switch name of Javelin and Spike rail gun ammo

If I have to motivate this in any way I’m gonna have another stroke

Suggestion: Add a link to Character Customization to the Character Sheet Personalization Tab

Keywords: ui, clothing, customization, character, character sheet, personalization, discoverability
Note: Discovering where to apply clothes, facial augmentations, create portraits, etc would be improved

Keeping an entry on Station Services makes sense giving clothing is only available from its actual location, but everything else about the feature screams for it to be findable from the character sheets. Clothing is also conceptually quite similar to ship skins and this change makes sense from a discoverability sense.
