That's a fraps of me anchoring five deathstars tonight, not something I have very much choice in doing. If there ever were a demonstration of how boring the process is, that video should be it.
No, the bits where the video is totally still are not an error. That's me waiting for a timer.

Make a new capital ship call it a POS, and have all the modules on it be the guns, hangers, labs, etc.
Fly it out to the spot, park it, anchor it, fire up the station shield, use it, un-anchor it, fly to a new spot, rinse, repeat.
Or maybe this could be the Titan redesign T2 version that is looming in the distant future.

Taking down and setting up posses is the most tedious, boring and annoying thing in the whole of eve. It¦s also known to cause decrease of mental capacity over time.
Much support for this topic.

Edited by: Madscience on 31/08/2008 02:35:07 let me expand on the idea someone mention before me that most space game has a colony ship. how about we have a colony ship too that costs around 20m in mineral to build and required a tower. Diff tower size give diff amount slot to prefit on the ship like large tower will give 10 slot, med 6 and small 3.
The ship has a reserved fuel bay for 1day to supply the pos and a fuel bay to hold fuel for jumping. This ship is light, so it has quite long jump range. When lauched, the ship will automaticly anchor the tower and continue to anchor/online the mod on prefit slot.

Burden of proof's on you to show that this change cannot be decoupled from POS spam. TWD's already tried and failed, now it's your turn.

After seeing what firends have to go through to set up a POS, I can't be btoerhed even though I like the idea. People complain about POS spam, but reality is that the mind-numbin logistics involved discourage solo and small corp players and actually promote alliance POS spam because it's at least semi-practical for an alliance.
Yes, should be like ship fitting. Lengthy time is OK, nobody is complaining about that - it's the horrible interface and the sit....wait....wait....click. Progress bars =/= gameplay...even mining is more fun.

I disagree completely with the OP. the amount of time a pos manager put into setting up a pos shouldn't be shorter than the time it takes to destroy it.
Best argument i can put forth is the issue of people like goonswarm knowing full well they can take advantage of any leeway given on this subject to ninja a deathstar into somewhere they'd normally never get away with. Sort of like sticking yer tongue out and making a raspberry, since it would take them way less time, and effort (needing only one person) to impact a great many more players negatively.
which is what GoonSwarm pride themselves in, is it not? |

CCP: allow cooperation when anchoring modules (stacking penalty when anchoring n modules). Eve supposed be a multiplayer online game not a linear batch script. Add skills decreasing anchoring time. |

As for anchoring and onlining... you dont have to stay at the tower during.
But ya... a game aka enterainment shouldnt destroy your soul. ------------------------ To make a megathron from scratch, you must first invent the eve universe. |

Yea, sounds boring and tedious beyond measure. Alot in this game needs automation, which would greatly increase the enjoyment of the game. But I guess that is the price you pay for one of the biggest money making devices in the game.

Edited by: Mister Xerox on 28/11/2008 05:53:14 Agreed.
POS managment is a chore that I would not wish on the most dedicated miner.
Anchoring anything once the tower is in place and online should be defined by the character's Anchoring skill, or Starbase Management skill, or something. You can anchor (or unanchor) one item per level of skill. Subsequently the supporting skill would reduce onlining time.
Also, introduce Fuel Rod blueprints. 1 for each Race. Each 'run' of the blueprint would produce a fuel rod for 24 hours (of a Standard POS) and reduce the 'size' of the fuel load by no more than 10%. You will still need to bring the 'consumables' for Powergrid, CPU load, and Starbase Charters, but the raw fuel needs to be made a whole heck of a lot more Logistic friendly.
OH! And for the love of Jove make Enriched Uranium fit into cans! I hate nothing worse than trying to lay aside my next duration's fuel in a can only to be told that I can't fit my Uranium into it.

Don't decrease tower anchoring time, just increase the number of items that can be anchored at a time once it's in place.
Once Sov 4 has been achieved limit the possiblity of anchoring towers to corps with +1 to the soverign alliance. If two forces are at war, or have negative political standings, increase anchoring time for the faction that has the weaker (non-existant) soverignty status. And put up a beacon in local that lets everyone know what's going down (for the soverign alliance only).

Edited by: Ticondrius on 28/11/2008 10:03:42 POS deployment. WE HATES IT! YES..PRECIOUS!
Building on the idea of predeploying a pos: pos-in-a-box.
You basically get out into space and 'prefit' the pos, selecting from a list of possible towers and structures. Note that this requires no actual items. Once you have your pos design all set out, you complete it, and receive something like a BPC or reaction, let's call it the 'Deployment Plan' or DP. You then take the pos tower out, and anchor/online it as normal, THEN drop ALL of the modules for it into a new storage space, along with the DP. Then hit the 'Deploy' button on the pos and watch all your pretty structures appear and begin anchoring and onlining, one at a time. Once done, you can recover the DP from the tower and reuse it as much as you like.
Note that you cannot make an impossible DP, such as a small tower with 50 large guns. CPU and PG requirements will be checked during DP creation. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- PROPOSAL: Good Bug Reporting Incentives MMORPG: Many Men Online Role Playing Girls |

Shooting pos is so much more unbearable. Reducing the pos numbers should work better or complet redesign of this part of eve would be even better.
