Hey all,
Is it me or CCP who is missing something?
Everytime I change ships, my pod loses its name and its skin.
Is there no way to apply the YC119 skin permanently to my pod? Do I really have to manually apply it and change my pod name EACH time I switch ships? |

Wild guess: everytime you change ships, your pod is created and destroyed.
i.e. it isn't the same pod, so the name and skin setting is lost. |

My pod is destroyed even when changing ships in the same station from a confessor to a shuttle?
Odd game mechanics. |

Odd game mechanics. you can only fly one ship at a time so you are either in your pod or in a ship, so the server really has no reason to remember your pod while you are in a ship. Historically the pod is a generic thing so it doesn't really matter. Pod skins are silly.

This always has bummed me out. Why have skins if they don't stay. |

This is a good point. It would be nice if we could set a default skin for various hulls. Hell, I'd settle for including the skin when you save a fit. Maybe post to F&I? I think most pods would appreciate that feature.
Signatures should be used responsibly...

I spend a good amount of time in a pod, so to me pod skins are not silly :(
This seems like a simple fix |

There is always a fun way to show off your nifty new pod skin.

This, but the coding is really messed up because it destroys all capsules in the ships hanger when you board a ship. So if you say have some empty capsules (which is possible google it ) then those will be destroyed as well as the active capsule. |

I have quite a few pods in assets, if you repackage them they persist as assets but can't be contracted or loaded into cargo.

Sir,
I implore that you regularly change pod due to hygienic regulations. Maybe you don't have trouble soaking in a yellowish goo or enjoy being in a snow globe that has brown flakes, but I want to keep myself clean. And regulations should force you to minimize creating and distributing strange diseases.

If you warp away you can avoid the pod destruction :) |

What makes pod skins odd is that when you exit a ship and go back into it... the skin remains... because the object never disappears. The pod however is new each time you exit a ship.
Which does make skins for pods kind of odd since pods don't persist like ships do.
But... hey... it was free. |

This pisses me off too. Why have the damn skins if you have to reset them every damn time.

There's a lot of easy fixes i think CCP could make and I am not sure why they are not. |

Back with the release of skins this was an issue. Now with pod skins its even worse.
I could see server load from accessing skins every time someone switches a ship if 'default skin settings' were introduced, but its still a feature I wish we had. |
