thats where the nit picky part comes in its not hard to just show listed items or to search for it all this would help is when you have it set to icon in your cargo not a big thing but also not hard to implement so i thought i would put it out there |

Did someone cart three months of fuel out to a POS in the middle of nowhere before realizing it was the wrong type? Totally have not done that... nope. >.>
As for the ideas.. sure I guess. It's not terribly important but can't see any real reason why not other than the bit of developer time to develop the icons and implement them.
But what colors for what race?
I always think of Gal as green, and Cal as blue, which are rather too close together for an easy visual difference. Same with my impression of Minmatar as orange/brown and Amarr as tan/red.
What colors do we assign each of them in order to have a clear visual difference while still staying where people would automatically associate that color with that race? |

Not as if there isn't precedence already for color coding by faction. It could even show the back ground normally shown for the towers of their respective races. |

As with any human, we must map out everything for the sake of living. So what happens when you put the same aspect in a game with random events? They go nuts trying to figure out how to predict and map out everything.

Shhh don't let them know that they might tease me
as for colors using the current one for the ECM modules would work maybe darken the cal/gal variants a bit as those can sometimes look the same at a glace but i'm no psychologist so idk what colors people would react to best |

Supported. If CCP can do it for ECM modules, they can certainly do it for fuel blocks and doing so makes just as much sense, if not more.

Id like to see it done for ice too, just a little red/blue/green/yellow on some part of the icon. |

this may be even more helpful considering how multiple types of ice are for the same race gunna change the OP |

While this seems completely sensible, it's also worth mentioning that the four different types of fuel block are also somewhat different from one another. Granted you do have to look somewhat closely. |

Aye the stands they are on but that's not really something you notice without looking for it

Agree, the same for isotopes. Names are good , but when you need to do something fast ... you land in on a midpoint without proper fuel in your cargo hold :D |

This seems like a sensible and easily applied update.
However, with the direction of homogenization that CCP are taking right now I wouldn't be surprised if racial specific fuels went out the window and we just ended up making plain old boring fuel blocks. 'Cause, you know, having four different fuels that do the same thing is overcomplicating things for the sake of overcomplicating things.

no if your talking about what they are doing to modules that's different.
different fuel blocks are set up to take different isotopes to drive the market and make areas of space hold different value.
the more people that use caldari towers/capitals the more the demand there is for the fuel/iso and so the more white glaze is worth. and if fewer people use minmatar tower/capitals then minmatar isotopes will be in less demand and worth less lowering the price of minmatar ice.
this pushes people to mine in different areas of space. Do i mine in caldari where i can get more isk per block? or do i mine in minmatar space with less competition so i can get more blocks per belt .
there is a lot more to it than it just being an over complicated mechanic from the early days of eve

+1 for fuel blocks +1 for isotopes
would suggest the ice gets a background, not an outright colour change, +0.5
all in all, +2.5
also - why in the HELL has this not been done yet?
For posting an idea into F&I:
come up with idea, try and think how people could abuse this, try to fix your idea - loop the process until you can't see how it could be abused, then post to the forums to let us figure out how to abuse it.....
If your idea can be abused, it [u]WILL[/u] be.

Standard faction background like they have for ships + a drawing of a cube over it. They can probably paste a cube icon over a default empty background and call it a day.
I don't even use POS fuel/topes and still think it should be done.
Colouring the blocks like they did for ECM would work too. |

Sounds like a good idea that will save a lot of headache. I don't even do POS stuff and I can see that. |
