PLEASE give us the following context menu options, relating to distance, as follows.
Warp To Within -> Custom DistanceKeep at Range -> Custom DistanceOrbit -> Custom Distance Allow us to enter a distance in kilometers or meters for the custom one, meters being entered as 0.001 for 1 meter.
It would be great to make an additional keyboard shortcut key, or the option for behavior of the current one, to display an input box for distance, displaying the last distance typed in ANY of the custom distance, within any of the context menus. This would be VERY useful for quick reference instead of having to use the mouse for custom distances and it would store the last distance typed, to allow only pressing enter to repeat the distance, or the ability to enter a new one. It would make us able to press one key combination on the keyboard to display this box, of the last one typed, and then press the keyboard key for the action, like warp to or orbit or keep at range.
Of course, leave the other distances that are already there so no one can complain about this interfering with gameplay. |

You can do this. Select a random object, goto the selected item info tab. This is the tab with the portrait and ship picture if you selected a player ship. Then right click on the Keep at range / warp to / w/e and select set default. Enter desired number into the resulting box. You now have a custom distance.

I think he want to set custom distance function (the text field where you enter the custom value) accessible from the right click menu itself and via shortcut.
As in: I want to orbit your mom at 8,500m. I have to right click the orbit button then enter a distance then click the orbit button. He's asking for right-click your mom, orbit at custom distance, enter 8500, hit enter. BAM! orbiting at 8,500m -or- hit shortcut, enter value, hit enter and BAM! orbiting at 8,500m.

I can see this being useful and deadly at the same time.
Ill have to lean twoards no ont his idea becuase the delays it can cause will be fatally exploited by some victims out there that are quickly losing more tools to save themselves. |

maybe remove the shortcut, but i dont see any reason why you are currently not allowed to set a custom distance e.g. for warp to.
@elvis, please add to the top: "approach to custom distance" , because for some reason a container or wreck cannot be kept in range, just approached... and maybe make your headline a little more descriptive to attract more attention ;)
adding this to my ideas list... more little ideas that need your support: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=261507#post261507 enjoying the order cancellation confirmation? sometimes CCP listens - there is hope after all :) www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1431503 |
