After hearing about the warp to zero skill that you could train to improve the autopilot i think i kinda like the idea. Basically you will train a skill, which at level 5 will have increased the precision of your autopilot with 10km. This means you will land approximately 5km from gates or stations when autopiloting |

Why would anyone train this?
Alternatively: why do we need to encourage more AFK play by making it more efficient? Rifterlings - small gang frigate PvP - low/nullsec operations, newbie-friendly, free ship program; Join today! www.rifterlings.com

I guess people would train it to make the auto pilot more convenient, and thus traveling in general. |

This will result in more idiots losing ships since they think with the skill its safe in lowsec.
I'm all for it. |

Agreed. More AFK autopiloters in low/null are a welcome addition to my list of targets. |

At what point do things become too convenient?
Their does come a point where a game becomes so dumbed down and "convenient" that any sort of challenge related adrenaline rush ceases, leaving nothing to do but tedious farming for tedious pvp, and when a game reaches that stage it's membership numbers usually sink like the Titanic.
Please don't step over that ledge CCP, challenge is what makes an MMO worth playing. "Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must undergo the fatigues of supporting it." - Thomas Paine |

Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective. |

Because pressing "jump" once every minute or so (instead of warp to zero and then jump like it used to me) so too hard.
Actually go for it, more idiots autopiloting and i can save SP by never training it and still travelling faster It's not been nice, but thanks for using lube

I support this idea.
Without the skill, autopilot should warp you to 65km.
Each level of skill can reduce that distance by 10km.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |

You mean those all important shuttle kills, that no respectable killboard even counts as real kills?

I'm all for it tbh. Why shouldn't this change? Unless you people actually enjoy sitting at your computers pushing jump every minute. |

This is a dumb idea. If CCP makes it a skill then essentially everyone will train it and it will become the standard. CCP needs to think long term. There is an 'eventuality' to Eve in that there is no hard cap on skills and eventually everyone will have 100mil SP+ eventually.
Doesn't add anything to gameplay as well.

A very bad idea, because it is a very bad idea to hit auto pilot. I support stupid people losing their ships for being stupid, and hitting the auto pilot and going AFK until it lands is very stupid. Set dest/ warp to 0/jump rinse repeat is the best way to travel. |

Yes there is, if you are AFK you are not playing, if you are not playing you deserve to be taught a lesson. And on the bright side, this idea is so not needed, it has no chance to ever be brought live. CCP, also thinks stupid people should pay for their stupidity.
We can argure for weeks on if being AFK auto piliot is stupid.
If you cannot be at your keyboard while traveling, park your ship. You already have all the options you need to travel. |
