Sounds great, though it's raised 1 question:
With the multiple rows of locked targets, when all the first row of targets have gone, will your modules try to activate on the first entry in the second row? E.g. if I've got a cap chain/RR/remote sebo/eccm going with a buddy as the first entry of my second locked targets row, and am shooting several rats in my first row, once all the rats die and I mash my guns F keys again, will I be trying to activate them on my buddy? I realise this will possible to be prevented via the Crimewatch safeties, but will it still be trying to be moving along the locked targets list, or are they almost as 2 different lists? If that makes sense...
Also seconding shortcut for compact large dscan drag & drop please.
And what about those on-grid bookmark brackets promised ~this time last year and said to be ready for the next patch at the time? |

I realize that the words are links to show info on the ships, but FC's may be interested in just the number and types of ships, rather than their fittings.

Somewhere over 9000 times I'd guess - which is exactly where these changes rate on the scale of awesome!
Two rows of targets - very cool!
Drag d-scan to chat? Freakin' awesome!
EDIT: Yeah, the above posted compression for multiple ship types would be nice too.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |

They could add an option to "Never activate aggressive modules on targets I have friendly modules on." Or take into account your fleet / corp / alliance, so that friendly modules always go to those and aggression modules never do.
Oh, "Auto-sort target list by fleet/corp/alliance membership." Top row enemies, bottom row friends, if you so desire. |

It makes it far easier to figure out who in my fleets have not renamed their ships so I can yell... politely ask them to change their ship name. :D
sooo, let me get this straight:
we have this scenario:
Player A is in system X (wormhole) Player B is in system Y - linked via WH to system X, and is siting on that connection waiting for prey
Player A sees scaning Anathema on D-scan
Player A links thatanathema into fleet chat
Sudenly player B sees WH activation and Anathema shows up, he clicks in the link in fleet, and if the show info shows ship with player, than that was exaclty the same ship that hes fleet mate show in another system, if not, he know that that player is still there somewhere
Isnt that a little to much info from D-scan?????? Read and support: Don't mess with OUR WH's What is Your stance on WH stuff? |

To be clear, and I may get Karkur to update the blog with this information, the show info of the ship from D-scan will only show the pilot information if they are on-grid and can be seen. Basically your d-scan needs to show a distance of not "-" or all you get is the show info of the ship, no pilot information.
So this is not actually giving any new information, just giving another way to find the information.
To put it another way if the link from D-Scan shows pilot information it is because the person linking it sees that target on their overview. Content Designer | Team Five 0 @regnerBA |

Because I think Max is implying it would be the same link to all, and the chat recipient could wait on looking at the link until someone had jumped the wormhole across to the side the recipient's on, and then before they've even broken cloak you could check the link and if you get a pic you know/assume they're still the pilot of the linked ship, and in it on grid/in system with you. Although you do use the phrase 'be seen'... |

No. Here one sec:
Player A is at the Abune gate in Heydieles. On grid with Player A are 3 hostiles in Rifters. Player A presses his D-Scan button with max range set. The results of the D-Scan are the 3 Rifters, and 2 Ravens. Player A drags all of the results into his fleet chat.
Player B is in the fleet with Player A. Player B clicks the links. Player B will see a show info for each of the Rifters and the Ravens. Player B will also see the character information for the Rifters.
This is no different than Player A just saying "Derp, Herp, and Blarg are all in Rifters on the gate." Now he just says "here are the Rifters on the gate."
Does that make sense? Content Designer | Team Five 0 @regnerBA |

I think you are confusing who needs to be on grid.
The link will show image only if player A is on grid with the anathema. It does not matter where is player B. The link will remain the same and ill not change depending on player B position.
And btw you cant link cloaked ships from d-scan so you cant use this feature to check if someone is on grid with you cloaked. |

The questions relate to the persistence of the chat contents/generated links vs the changing nature of dscan results and peoples' locations & current ships.
I don't think I'm confused about the original case of the generation of the drag & drop links, but how they decay over time w.r.t. what intel they still give, or if they can be used to infer anything new subsequently.
I think currently if you show info on someone's ship from dscan as they warp off, you lose the option to go via the pilot's portrait to the current pilot of that ship. But with this new generated links system (assuming you produce the link when they're visible on grid) you/anyone can see the pilot even when you aren't even in system with them, let alone on grid. And does it keep showing the same results from a given link even if the pilot no longer owns/is onboard that ship? If it stops doing so, does that not then imply they've ejected/stored/reshipped/been exploded, to anyone reading the chat elsewhere in an arbitrary system at any subsequent time? |

Will the new D-Scan drag and drop affect the copy / paste output from the D-Scan?
Not because I just spent a week writing a POS fitting parser that relied on it or anything. |

While it's a fair question, the only thing that comes to mind is snarky responses based on there being a test server with all the information available for you to test yourself. If it does persist, the test server would also be the perfect place to bug it.

My interpretation is that the dragged link contains only the information (pilot info, etc.) that was available to the person creating the link at the time of the link creation. It doesn't matter what the linked ship does after that moment (cloaks, jumps, whatever), the information in that link never changes... no matter who is viewing the link or their physical position in relation to the target in the link.
Perhaps I have that wrong.
Edit: I almost forgot. Consistantly excellent work, well done. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

But there should be an expected result they can tell us they've decided it will do, and can recite that from a design doc rather than players have to rediscover it on a test server that could be partially implemented atm. I mean, I hope they've thought this through and have agreed limits to the intel permeation. It could well be that the link result never changes & isn't dynamic once generated, that's no problem afaik. Just I think most specific ship/item links are dynamic atm, e.g. showing pilot and insurance. |

From what's said:
You'll get the regular show info for the ship when you're not on grid with it. When you're on grid with it, you'll also get the little pilot picture you can click through.

I have a feeling you are over thinking this (no offense), but we'll see.
By the way there are many aspects of EVE's game mechanics that need to be found through experimentation instead of documentation. Some of these may not be intentional, but I'm sure many of them are (the subtlies of jump gate, MWD, cloak, warp come to mind). That being said it looks like the intent here is to line things out pretty clearly. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

I do appreciate these changes, they do have an impact.
However, why no changes to the industry UI or industry changes? Long, long...long overdue IMO.
I've posted the same list of changes in every one of these 'little things threads' and nothing. I'm not saying that my ideas are the best but I find it hard to believe that the industry UI isn't a common area suggested for improvement. Or how about doing something so ridiculously simple like increasing the survey scanner range to 30km? How do we get 'on the list' so to speak?
