This especially applies to WH space but is relevant to anybody who scans in EvE.
Once a site is created its signature ID should not change after downtime. It is rather irritating to have to scan down the same sites after downtime again and again. It is really that simple. I am not sure why this hasn't been done already. I can't imagine it is that hard for the server to remember the name of a signature ID of a site or object in space.
This is just one of those little things (thousand papercuts) that should be changed. WHAT?!?! Have you ever even been in a wormhole? Really, let's let the common sense monster out of its cage on this one (Since you seem to be scared of it). When you scan something down in a wormhole, you bookmark it. Then you open up "People and Places" and while holding shift, click and drag to your cargo hold. Then take that item and put it in the corporate hangar where anyone can get it. Best part, name your exit WH "EXIT" or "C3 -> C2". Then, rinse, repeat as necessary. -1 Wow...you fell off the boat there bud. This isn't just regarding WH's themselves...this goes for annoms and sigs in general. Read this thread again...think about it a bit and try again. You aren't even on the same page here... And you missed my point genius... Bookmark your sigs and you won't have to rescan them!! Here's a floatie, the boat left before you showed up.
You forgot something mr. genius.
Signatures of sites change regardless of whether you bookmarked them or not.
And you have to filter out the ones that are already bookmarked from the ones that arent when scanning for new ones amogst the old ones.
So this is still a bit of a annoyance...in other words..your both right...and your both wrong.
In short...a simple solution is to keep sites that have not changed to stick with the original signature until they expire. Simple. |

Jack.... trolling is inappropraite.
And my point is valid in any security system.
Don't believe me? Look it up your self and try it.
Im sure any WHS guru will also vouch for this as well. |

Trolling quote removed. Zymurgist One: You never leave high sec, so have no right to speak of things outside of said security space Two: You fail as a troll, and thus garnered CCP's attention Three: Biomass your toon and reroll into something that isn't made of fail old 0:7 Four: GTFO
Once again... your emo-raging and not paying attention to detais.
The GM removed My Quote of Your Post of which was deleted for trolling.
Plaese Jack...stop embarassing yourself and clean up before you get kicked out of the forums. |

A lot of people keep talking about scanning.... just to be clear.
Its got nothing to do with scanning.
Its the signature tags asigned to sites as they spawn...then cycle through every downtime.
The proposal kinda jumps all over the place but the solution as i said before is to keep the signatures locked until they cease to exsist or get exhausted by a player running through said signature.
In Wormhole Space you could be in a fresh Class 3 or 4 and get anywhere from 25 to 50 Signatures on a good day.
And from there on you could have 5 to 10 NEW signatures (Minimum of 3 on average) every 24 hours.
And that's not including new spawns during the day that tirgger to say a WH collapse.
You'd have to take copious notes...and bookmarks have to be filed and not just "Slapped" together with a funny name.
Then coordinate that with an entire team if your living in said wormhole to make sure they dont lose track.
You end up rescanning sites again even if they are bookmarked to eliminate the signatures when they change.
THAT is the frustration....
This is the case for Known Space (not just "high sec" as some foolish indiidvuals poke fun at).
The only difference is...your not going to get tons and tons of signatures every day in Known Space because tis "Known Space"
More like 5 if your fortiante.
0.0 might be more depending on the I-HUB + Upgrades installed.
Feel free to shed a little light on that 0.0 gurus.
Scannings fine.
Its the Game Mechanic tagging signatures on sites....that should be adjsuted....but not drastically made easier....just less painful. |

I've dabbled in probing once or twice. It's extremely unhelpful when underskilled and the sigs are moving 40 AU's a second while I'm desperately trying to scan them down. Sigs don't actually move at all. Thats just your skills causing discrepancies in your scan results. This thread is referring to the actual Sig ID's...(ABC-123)...changing every day even though the sig itself is the same and in the same place.
I think he's referring to ships... but still. |
