Game of Drones Team, make love to me, RIGHT NAOW -º

This is not a good practice: As a corp member I may want to move items to hangars I don't have (view) access to. This happens a lot of times.

Also: i love the game of drones logo...

My one source of confusion is the absence of drag and drop functionality in the "None" text highlighted in this image. Fantastic changes, otherwise!

Say I opened a wreck, and then I salvaged it. That used to close the cargo window. Will the same happen with the wreck in the tee - is it going to be removed automatically? To rephrase the question: will non-existent wrecks still stay in the tree, and need to be removed manually?

One thing I'd like is to be able to sell multiple stacks at once.

Clearly that requires some form of post-action consent. One way of implementing that is to ask the user what percentage of market price he's willing to sell each stack for. For instnace 60% or 85% or 110%. The game then goes through each stacks, and sells all the items that can be sold. I envision this as sometimes taking several seconds, maybe even minutes, but the player can just go AFK while it happens. It's certainly more attractive than the huge amount of micro-management that is currently required to sell multiple stacks.

How about renaming the "None" entry then? Like "No additional holds" or something similar?

Also, right click menus on the tree-items would be awesome :) I.e. enabling to approach inventory location "pos module: laboratory 123".

First off let me say this. Amazing!

I am worried about 1 thing though. With wrecks in space I generally try to keep a little small block that displays only about a 3x3grid worth of loot and let them all stack in the same location. I then put my cargohold window right next to or on top of it, keeping to the same small scale window sizing. This allows me to open containers, drag and drop items to my heart's content and still see what is happening around me. I know the overview is mostly used but I am sure there could be a few instances where it could get in the way. Especially since your attention will be automatically dragged to the big window in the center of your screen instead of watching the all important overview.

Other than that worry, I think it is going to be fantastic.

Also, right click menus on the tree-items would be awesome :) I.e. enabling to approach inventory location "pos module: laboratory 123".

"It is effectively possible to create a very simple or complex filter, depending on your needs."

How about having a way to "export" these filters, so they can be shared with other characters.

Um I got another one:

Will we be able to show 2 or more inventory windows, anyway? I could imagine a few use cases where this would be handy (production for example), to minimize clicking, etc.

Looks like it could be good or bad, either way I'll just have to give it a shot.

The only inventory improvement I really want is the ability to be able to use ctr - A, ctr - x, ctr - v. It would speed things up immensely and not change too much in terms of coding (I think). This would make looting in space much much faster and eliminate the hassle for the people that don't want to drag and drop (while getting shot at)

Will the new inventory system fix my situation, when I put more than 900 items somewhere, that somewhere grinds slow to an halt.

Having mucked around with this on Sisi a bit, this is an INCREDIBLY useful piece of information that I really could have used yesterday. Make sure to communicate that in a tooltip or something because I almost bit through my keyboard in frustration a couple times trying to load ammo into ship cargo holds, dragging it to tiny-ass icons.

It looks like a very neat change, might take a bit of time to change habbits (that's why most people hate changes) but it hopefully fixes one of the tedious part of the UI, with the added benefit of way less fiddling with various windows whenever the settings and cache has to be cleared.

But... making POS hangars/SMA items repackage-able and stackable? pleez? with "View content" right-click menu option for ships? (or will they work the way station ships are displayed?)

Oh and... might have missed the answer to that... estimated price based how? For those living in W-space would that mean no more jita-alt-price-checking? or is it based on regional prices (WH-dwellers screwed up)?

Ok, so I haven't read through this entire thread so I don't know if anyone already commented. WTF were you thinking with the "Game of Drones"?

1. WTF does this have to do with Drones?
2. Why would you be rubbing in the fact that CCP has decided that Drones deserve no time investment to get right?
3. Why not have named a sorely needed DRONE patch with this great title?
4. Seriously WTF....


On a very unrelated side note, the inventory window does look kind of nice. I do foresee alot of misplacing of items using the tree though.

PS. So in the future are we going to get a Drone related patch named "Cleanup on aisle five"?

I'll have to be honest; scrum team naming isn't what you would call exact science

We definitely haven't forgotten about the drone UI and we have some very interesting ideas floating around. The problem is simply that there are so many worthwhile UI improvement projects and so little time!

That is mind blowing.

So far, we have discovered two annoying Inventory bugs, which we will share here (filing proper bug reports is boring :)):

1. Creating separate windows for various entries in the Inventory index and then closing the main Inventory window results in this window becoming inaccessible from the Neocom; if you press the Inventory button, you're presented with a context menu containing the names of the separate Inventory windows you have created earlier. Of course, the button reverts to its original state once you close all these windows, but this is really inconvenient GÇö couldn't you just make the main Inventory window a part of any context menu that's being generated for the Inventory button?

(If this doesn't make any sense to you, please take a look at this video to see what I'm talking about: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35DuqyAJ2sY )

2. Opening a separate drone bay window and then switching ships results in this window being replaced with a cargohold window for the new ship; oddly enough, any cargohold windows stay put during these switches GÇö they even get to keep the "(active ship)" monicker in their titles.

(Another helpful video can be seen here: http://youtu.be/5Wb3LH5YdS8 )

Looks and works well except when im trying to figure out which ship is which. Mine are all named and I sometimes forget what ship I named what. If we could have the ship type in brackets next to the ship name would be awesome. Just in the tree that is.

Excellent! I'd like to offer a small suggestion. Rather than type it all out again I'll just link it. Hopefully that's ok.

Small suggestion offered inside

For player owned locations, this data is totally cacheable. For shared locations, not so much.

If you are going to unify why not take the opportunity and put assets under it as well. Place them under a Remote Stations header or something.

...and what kind of version are we expecting to see in tranq next week or will this project be delayed?

ccp pushing out half finished stuff with reduced functionality?

again?

lol nah no weed smoked today.

the system thats on sisi now has and is missing functions that teh current tq system has. ive detailed them above, check it out bud

By the wayGǪGǪaside from the slight O_o at you not believing what we say, should we interpret this as it being better to do what I did and record and actually show you the problems we find rather than just write them up in the classic test feedback way?

I mean, sure, we're talking about a visual interface so visuals are probably quite handy, and if a picture is worth 1,000 words, I suppose a video is worth 24,000 words a secondGǪ but still, it's a fair bit more work so does it actually have any added value to you?

Oh myGǪ From the patch notes:

GÇ£Market deliveries now appear under the Corporate hangar section in the Index tree of the inventory.GÇ¥

GǪsoooo, has anyone checked the latest build if this means the bug remains where the corp hangar section only shows if you have an actual corp hangar in the station?
