As many before me I ask for shared hangar mechanics. In my case it’s mostly for industry alts but I believe the usefulness of this goes far beyond industry. Mechanics: 1. Create or rent a hangar in a given station/structure, a monthly fee similar to corporate offices can be applied. 2. Assign an Access Control List(s) to that hangar allowing other characters to: - View - Use (as blueprint, including research and copy), - Take - Manage (hangar ACLs, attributes e.g. name) The hangar would be rented for a character but extending this mechanics to corporations is fine even if little redundant. Someone asked for similar mechanics for fleets (see references below). The mechanics would be similar to how we now create chats and assign ACLs to these. The reason to make it separate from corporation sharing mechanism is I want to share industry-related stuff with my alts only while being engaged in a regular corporation with other people and having management roles in that corporation. Besides having access to a lot of blueprints makes industry window slow - that would affect both me and other industrious members of the corporation.

Create a corporation. Put all your alts in that corporation. Hire a corporate office in an NPC station. Create a set of corporate hangers. Done. Yes, you have to make an investment of time and rental charges to the NPC station owner (don’t rent somewhere busy: it’s expensive). But there is a mechanism that enables you to do this already. There’s a lot of side effects to this as well: such as being able to hold things and control things as corporate assets meaning that if another player wants to work with you they can do. It is quite possible that you didn’t get traction with the initial postings because it was already a “non-issue”. ---

Yeah, I too have alts for different activities that I can’t all place in the same corp. Moreover, I remember that when I did try to set up a corporation hangar so that other corp members could use BPO’s, but not take them, it was a total PITA. As Geo has pointed out, this probably isn’t a major concern for most players. But that doesn’t change the fact that current system sucks. Anyway, you can try pinging/emailing brisc rubal or mike azariah, but I get the feeling that this issue isn’t going to get a lot of attention as it is. Regardless, if you post a reddit thread, @ me with a link, and I’ll go upvote it over there. ![No P2W](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/c/9/e/c9e5bbcb978427c1d2c78ed0bf7e727425ef954f.png) ---

An important distinction with the fleet hangar is that they are temporary. It doesn’t allow one person to easily share assets between his alts or store items even over night because once the fleet ends or logs off, everything goes into someones impound or asset safety. For sharing assets you should really be in a corp. ---

Again and again. I can share assets between my alts in 20 seconds and 10 clicks at a cost of 10 k ISK per transaction by creating a contract. The only difference it makes is removing extra mouse clicks. There is no difference in possibilities, only in grind. The solution with corporation prevents me from taking part in a normal corpo which take away great point of multiplayer game. ---

Ok, so you have no meaningful points against. Thanks. Claiming somewhere there are some points is not equal to having one. Did you read those threads I linked ? I did. There is nothing except “people have to click a lot” or some BS about how it will help stealing. If I can have an item on one of my chars account I can have it on another in as many ways as I please. Subject was not beaten to death. If anything it was ignored to death. I guess it was because the issue applies to a small subset of players who do industry on a larger scale and want to engage in a corporation. But then again, if the issue does not apply to you why say ‘no’ for the sake of saying ‘no’ ? ---

I would very much like this, a way to share a cargo container with everyone on an access list. I don’t want to be in a corp with just my alts, but it would make sharing stuff between my indy alts much much easier. ---

Or was it just an excuse? At the end of the day, this is what corps are for. And whilst the game may be alt friendly, it doesn’t need features specifically designed for enabling alts the same way it doesn’t need to cater to solo players. Either have your own corp and play with others using chat channels/alliance and such. Or ask for your own hangar if at all possible.
