4 corp hangers at a pos.
old system, right clcik 4 times all 28 hangers in 4 stacked windows. change to corp division 1, click each corp hanger wondow and you can see whats in all 4 hangers corp division 1 with 4 click, rinse repeat with all 4 corp hangers, division after division
new system shift click 28 times. 28 windows, now try to search through 4 corp hanger division 1's... go on, try.
now try division 2, 3 4, 5, 6 and 7...
oh it gets better, warp away( all 28 windows become your cargo window and dont auto close), come back.... do it again and again and again... i bet you jsut give up as its a nightmare
why have you removed right click menus that actually have a function ccp? I might be reading this wrong, but I don't see why you aren't using the tree view for this - it gives you the same functionality as before, but in one window (or 4 if you prefer one for each hangar) and you just 1 click to each division.
Goliath,
you are are correct indeed. We do not see how we should be using the UI tree as intended by CCP. Please release a devblog or youtube video on how we should using the UI tree.
From my own personal experience i am finding it somewhat troblesome trying to arrange the 100 or so containers I have in my corp hangars into a way that will make the UI tree workable for me. I'm am trying to adapt with some sucess. Allbeit little sucess.
Just a little bit more info:
I run a ressearch & copying POS where I make copies of lots of different BPO's to sell. Let me take one of these as an example.
Rifters
I currently make 1 run / 5 run / 10 run / 15 run / 20 run and 30 run copies to sell on contracts.This equates to 6 containers. If i didnt then i'd have no way of telling what run a BPC was unless i individually clicked onto each bpc before moving the bpc from my POS to a station and creating a contract. As mentioned the current solution to this is I have labelled containers. Lots of containers. In such a myirad of corporate hangars a single UI tree is navigated to the BPC location before dragging what I want to where I want. This allows me to create contracts of mulitpal BPCs.
Each POS mod has 7 hangars and I've got POS 10 mods to choose from. Yes 70 folders each expanding to the containers held in them. Considering that the only way currently to open a container inside a corp hangar is through the UI tree (The shift+click does not open the container -bug report already sent in). I am left with little option other than trying to negoitate several UI windows while remembering to try to shift+click my way thought the tree.
Stressful I tell you.
Creative Solution
Allow me to be able to open both my POS mods and containers contained within with double clicks (not shift+clicks) in different UI windows. The containers can then be opened and the mod dropped into where I need them before I package then off to contracts. |
