Which programs suport multiboxing?

I want to ask which programs suport multiboxers fleets with 25+ ships flying together controlled by one player. I see theese fleets sometimes and is interesting how to manage so many accounts in real time. I know about 40 owned ships is possible, but computers power stil raising and next year or two we can flying with 100 ships for everyone probably. The direction of changes in the game is going in this direction and no one can stop it now. So it’s good to spread the knowledge of how to do it. Tell me what programs/scripts you use to fly and fight fleets of 20-40 ships.

Nice try CCP Team Security. :thinking:

You do ? The account you are logging in under doesn’t seem to have been active since 2010. Oh…wait…that’s par for the course here.

Using software for controlling multiple clients is against the TOS/EULA.

Tell that to the characters InsertName[0-99] infesting the chokepoints between trade hubs.

Report them. That’s the only thing you can do.

Or gank them, if you have enough firepower.

Multiboxing that many characters is legal, as long as players don’t use input broadcasting but send commands to each individual client and all accounts are Omega.

From what I heard, ‘EVEO’ or however it is called helps manage these fleets with quick switching and previews.

Multiboxing massive fleets is becoming a bigger and bigger issue though as PCs get stronger. If you ask me CCP should put in some soft limits on multiboxing now so that we do not end up with ‘single player with 50 character multiboxed fleets’ as PCs get stronger.

For example a 0.5s delay after bringing a client into focus before it allows inputs would hardly impact regular players but considerably slows down reaction speed of a multiboxed fleet of more than a few characters.

Also delete drone assist and fleet regroup please, CCP.

As people have said, there are some programs designed by third parties, like EVE-O Preview, which help can help players manage monitor space for multiple clients. A key nuance here is that each client does need to be controlled by the user. What you have described sounds like using a program to mirror commands to multiple clients simultaneously, known as input-broadcasting. Doing this is a violation of the EVE Online ToS and EULA, and will result in an immediate ban on all accounts.

We are already there. There is at least one player with about 50 smartbomber alts that I see quite often in Niyabaynen/Sarekuwa. And that CCTV guy who scouts lowsec and nullsec probably has 50+ too.

And powerful PCs are not the problem. Running 20+ was possible for more than decade. In fact, the power needed to run multiple clients spiked up quite a bit in last 3 years due to the graphic and UI “improvements”, and EVE requiring more RAM than before (especially as it suffers with memory leaks now). I was able to run 10 clients in 2018 with a mid-cost PC from 2014, in 2022 I was not able to multibox more than three lol and had to upgrade.

I use AutoBox GankerPro.

You should try downloading Sp0rk.e, here’s the link. :thinking:
