What does it do? * It gives players more and faster the info they need. The (Selected Item Window) should show additional info like (Ship Race), (Ship Class), (Ship Type).
Why do I / we need it? * When you are attack by another ship you have a split second to decide to stay and fight (be a man) or leave and warp (be a chicken). But to make the correct decision you need info about your attacker and you need it fast, like in a few seconds.
I am not an expert on recognising ships. I do not even know what kind of ship it is even if it shot me.
Currently you see something like this: http://img300.imageshack.us/i/70502347.jpg/
But I like to see more something like this: http://img36.imageshack.us/i/64186621.jpg/
Let me and CCP know how you all think about this idea.

Not bad. It would be even cooler if the data shown was configurable.

Most of that can be accessed via the overview if set-up in that way (Ship type, Velocity, Corp etc etc) And well, you'll learn pretty fast which ships belong to which race just by looking at them or even hearing the names. ----------------- Yay!! |

well, you've already shown that some of the space is empty for no reason. Would be cool if that space was used for something, and I think what you've proposed is an excellent idea.

While I can now remember most ships by name, I can't remember them all, especially with adrenaline flowing, and more info delivered faster is on my wishlist for the EVE GUI. This would also have been a fantastic feature when starting the game. You idea helps to asses the situation with a glance, is simple and doesn't take away anything from the game.

I do have problems recognizing ships, mayself. But the I think: knowing that is what makes a good PvPer. I'm kinda biased...would like it, though, I guess. Give it a tech level indicator, as well.

Edited by: Mike C on 25/08/2009 22:32:46 Would rather see Corporation and Alliance information instead of Faction, which is not exactly useful. If ye cant remember the name of the frigate or the other names minus that (for example I can't for the life of me remember the name of the Amarr Freighter, but if I see Freighter + Providence I'll either recognize the name or not recognize the name and assume Amarr), you can at least tell the faction by the icon (lolcolor?). It would also be nice to be able to configure what is underneath the "distance" ticker, eg angular velocity, radial velocity, velocity, etc.. Just my 2ó.
EDIT 1/2: I'd settle for fixing the standings issues (Blues often showing as reds, cant tell you how many times target caller has primaried our Scorp cause of the effin overview).
EDIT 2/2: By standings issues, I mean the overview bugging out and showing wrong standings and showing alliance mates who due to overview settings shouldnt be on overview at all.

I've been around for ages, so I know all the ships by name/sight, but it's not always apparent when they're shooting at you from 15-20km.
More importantly, putting this info on the 'selected item' bar would definitely save some real estate in the overview window; for that reason alone I'm all for it.

NOTE: I know that the suggested space is used to show the selected ships health and armour bar, but I find showing that info useless because it is also shown in the lock box when the selected ship is targeted by my own ship.
I see my idea is getting allot of positive feedback from the EVE-Community, there is even a positive CCP DEV Team member comment. I think it is now time for CCP to let us all know if this idea has any change of getting realised.

I'm more interrested in the shield/armor left on the ship I select before I decide to engage the lock which takes another 3-7 seconds. The info you asked for to be put there I already get out of the overview (which is setup that way). ---------------------------------- None of yet! |

Yeah, that would be nice, although I'd prefer to see it as a set % instead of a hp bar. However, I wouldn't mind if it would require a lock before showing the info.

Edited by: Sjors Boomschors on 09/09/2009 10:05:07 I like the comments and feedback you all send on this idea, so I made some modifications on my first plan. See below the new selected item screen.
Currently you see something like this: http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/3285/98062054.jpg
