HI EVE for many, GANKERS and other station CAMPERS can be a risk to any pilot that sets to undock that in mind. A possible tool for any undocking pilot would be a live feed of the surrounding area of a station or a drone that can be controlled by anyone for a small fee or timed use. Not trying to take any fun away, but if it is offer. It can be use full for risky situations. 1. Drone can be disable 2. Watch outside fights
thanks for any replies |

Meh. You can just pop outside and look as it is. I also seem to recall that there are some pretty huge technical hurdles in the way of being in two places at once, which is how such a thing would have to be constructed.
Also, F&I is that way GåÆ

...but still, Camera drones would have some very sweet functionality way outside of the the box as per OP.
Yes I can park an alt there and even stream the visuals to another monitor yet there might well be times when I choose/prefer not to have an alt char present at the location simply because of reasons.

I want a feed of the station undock in my captains quarters. That would be the only real reason to ever use it.

You have 30 seconds invulnerability timer once you undock as long as you do not move the ship, so scout during that window and dock back. Don't believe me? Try locking someone who just undocked...I am not sure if smartbombs will work though, but you should worry about that in null sec. |

A distinct lack of imagination there !
Personally I might choose to use one or more on say some hostile staging systems, on some hostile Jump Bridges or even some strategically chosen gates when chasing hostile fleets, in fact anywhere that I might choose not to have an alt present.

Try locking someone who just undocked...I am not sure if smartbombs will work though, but you should worry about that in null sec. The only thing that you can do without breaking the invulnerability during that 30 seconds is stop your ship (CNTRL-C). So undock, stop ship, zoom out, look around. Is the surrounding not to your liking? Dock back up and hope that greener pastures have grown to your doorstep the next time you plan to undock.
Edit: Yes, Smartbombs do work.
Here I used to have a sig of our old Camper in space. Now it is disregarded as being the wrong format.
Looking out the window I see one thing: Nothing wrong with the format of our Camper! Silly CCP......

No. This would diminish the sandbox content of station campers and wardeccers and result in less destroyed which in turn will cause further market stagnation. |

Have been in a lot of fleets camped inside stations and this subject is always discussed ...people that say use a alt are missing the point and are tunnel visioned thinking everyone has limitless supply of alts . being solo should is already hard enough why not just add 1 station drone camera that can be accessed through your TV that can at least show outside within 100km ....not include d/scan obviously Basically being camped in station is boring and the ability to see outside is not game breaking and I'm unsure why anyone other than station campers are against this .. |

Well, as long as the same point of unobstructed observation is bestowed upon other wouldbe tenants of the station you are at, I think it's worthy enough idea, if only the technical hurdles as mention before can be overcome. Having an LP/OP Alt of sorts is a simple yet novel alternative that works well enough for now, but that doesn't necessarily mean this is a useless idea. I don't see how one could abuse it (or at least any more than the next "Joe Schmo") as long as it's freely accessible without restrictions.

I usually have the scouts out and about in the locality anyway though.

I think a cool variation would be a probe you could launch from a probe launcher that would give you a feed of its location. I don't know if it is feasible within the code, but it would give a lot of options for gathering battlefield intel. |

This takes a lot of risk out of EVE, which is against one of EVE online's main identities.
0/10, would downvote again.

All praise the instaundocks?
My highsec base of choice is the amarr tradehub station and i have never even gotten LOCKED on the undock let alone fired upon...
Since i am never there longer then my invulerability timer... And i habitially undock expensive ships through active highsec "wardecs/ganking licences"... Also i drive freighters through Uedama in US primetime and do other such silly things since well, i've never been anywhere dangerous long enough to get ganked... |

Thanks for the reply's and decisions on my post. Even with many different views of this possibility. The choice of another option of viewing the outside world of eve can add to an awareness of eve gameplay. Maybe a limiting factor for space interactions it can proved others a new since of interaction with stationed players to the world outside they cannot view. Thank you for the reply's. |

First of all, this topic is redundant and has been brought up several times, you'd know this if you cared to use the search tool.
miguel Manjarrez wrote:GANKERS and other station CAMPERS can be a risk to any pilot that sets to undock that in mind.
Secondly (With the quote above), that is a risk that you and everybody else has to take.
Basicly, all you need is a warp out point. It'll let you warp to safety before the server tick makes you visible to others. |

Thanks for the reply. I do apologize for not searching the first questions to this topic. Either now or later if possible if not for eve pilots then for DUST players. So they can view the world of EVE and might take a look and interest at another aspect of eve. |

Thanks for the reply to this topic. Maybe, but a quick look without transitions of characters might assist in choices. |

Thanks for the reply. This option in game play can effect different situations were without it can be predictable, but with it players might out of necessity have to find new ways of interacting in space. |
