Lets discuss what you like the most or what you think is bad. I’ll start.

1-9 okayish to very good addition
10 This one is not very well thought of. I don’t mind it, but I can see why someone is not interested it this and I don’t see a “Blink Off” option when right clicking the header. Additionally the blink should stop when we change the system as that information about update is no longer relevant then.
11 that is kinda bugfix isn’t it?
12 sound good but I find both ingame maps unusable anyway
13, 14, 15, 18 very good / why took it so long?
16, 21 ok
17, 19, 20, 22 don’t know what it is, but ok I guess
23 awesome change
24 great but quite a big help to ninja looters and botters to get away with loot safely isn’t it?
25 yeah lol
26, 27 don’t use but I guess good
28, 29, 30, 31 ok
32 great change

I had to change my conclusion as I was looking on wrong patch version - overall this is very good despite all the bugs and old issues reappearing. Too bad we have to wait for this so long.

Anyway, your opinion?

Excellent change. It would be even better, though, if asset search had some means of breaking stuff down by type…like ‘where are all my ships ?’ and could then display ship numbers on the map.

Another change I would love to see would be the ability to remotely plan a route. At the moment I can only see routes from where I already am to some destination. What would be good would be the ability to see what the route would be between two remote locations. That would be very useful. For example the ‘safest’ highsec route from Amarr region to Jita invovles going via Sarum Prime. But that is not something you would ever know without actually going to Sarum Prime.

I will say that these are overall good.

Good job CCP.

Now maintain this level of competence and you might get to hang out at mine for Xmas.

You can do this on dotlan . Not so convenient to do it on external site, but it has to suffice I guess…

Speaking of features of external sites, I would like to be able to open market of any region, but I don’t think that ever happens…

I think that is possible using waypoints. Add waypoints insteat of destination. I will test to confirm when at home as i am at work presently.

I was wrong.

I was able to determine where i got the idea that i could from, wormholes.
