Whitehound 868	Posted - 2013.02.19 18:36:00 - [2] - Quote Pretty, but useless. I have already turned it off. Does anybody know what use it has besides drawing zic-zac lines on my screen? I do like the fact that one can now optimize the current route without opening the map. However, it still cannot handle more than 10-11 waypoints. Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

I think its that the lines point to the stars as they are in space, for me this made the whole traveling seem even larger than it already is.

Ranger 1 Ranger Corp 3576	Posted - 2013.02.19 20:21:00 - [11] - Quote The stars in EvE are not just a random pattern, they actually represent your star map. For the moment actually having the route you are going to take is simply another visualization tool... interesting (and very helps with the immersion factor) but it does not claim to enhance functionality in any meaningful way. At this point it's really not intended to. However the next step is to allow you to turn on star info overlays (if you wish) where you can hover over a star on your route and get info... perhaps even interact with it to a degree (remove from autopilot route, add to avoid systems, perhaps even hover to get access to all of those juicy details available through the map but just for the system you are hovering over). For new players especially I can see this being intuitive and engaging, giving even more strongly the impression of actually being in a living breathing high tech universe. I'd be a little happier if that little line tracked back all the way to the gate you are going to be jumping out of, or even connecting all the way back to the gate you jumped in through. Heck, some people would probably like to see the route behind them as well (perhaps depicted with a different color line). Still, no criticism from me for those that find it distracting. I'm just please that CCP provided the means to turn it on/off easily. It shows that CCP is coming to realize how important customization to taste is to our finicky generation of gamers... and that is a good thing. 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.

Not all the stars you see are part of the bitmaps. The stars of the Eve universe are overlaid on top of the bitmap. I assume the closer ones then. As setting a very long auto-pilot route gives you a route that fades out and seems to disappear beyond the next-ish constellation, or roughly 12 or so jumps. Very interesting.

Let the Developers decide what is and what isn't useful. I for one love the change, it really adds to the immersion of the game. The little things tend to go a long way in such a big universe.

mynnna GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 443	Posted - 2013.02.20 08:00:00 - [47] - Quote It'd be pretty easy to have the starmap actually reflect the real layout of Eve. The location of each and every system within the cluster is stored in the database as XYZ coordinates. With that information, calculating the relative position of all other starts to the system you're in (as well as how bright they should be) isn't all that difficult, and from there, drawing lines between them is rather simple. Whether that's actually how it works (versus just being random or something) is a question for CCP though. e: Also, as a qualified bittervet, I will say that is the most pointless yet completely awesome new feature EVE has seen in awhile. **** the haters, it owns. This post was crafted by a member of the GoonSwarm Federation Economic Cabal, the foremost authority on Eve: Online economics and gameplay.

Kirk used it at the end of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. In addition to many lines from Shakespeare, famous lines seemed to be a running gag in that movie, most of them intentionally attributed to the wrong source. "You have not experienced Shakespeare until you have read him in the original Klingon." - Gorkon "Perhaps you have heard Russian epic of Cinderella? If shoe fits, wear it!

What you do is you create a compromise - a hybrid of two algorithms. First do you sort the waypoints by nearest distance to each other. This can be done with hundreds of waypoints and gives a near optimal solution, which is already helpful. Then can you optimize the first 10-11 waypoints perfectly. Right now will it not do anything when you have more than 10-11 waypoints and are forced to trim the number down. I often have to go through 20-30 stations to pick up assets from trades. I would be happy if I could just get a near perfect solution for my routes. Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

I am then always surprised when I read in the patch notes about some weapon not sitting right or intersecting with a ship's hull. This must be really important to some. The 3D models in the info to the guns are also pretty and yet useless. When was the last time you have looked at those? What I do like and find useful are the engine trails, because they give me information about where a ship is, into which direction it is moving and how fast. The zic-zac lines in space remind me more of a horoscope than of anything else. The idea of star gates was never one that had any particular 3D direction. One simply jumps from one place to another. This could be jumps across the entire universe and back for all I care. It has just nothing to do with a continuous trajectory in the sense of Newton's Laws, but I see it as a "quantum travel" and so the lines are purely imaginative. Loss is meaningful.

According to the dev post earlier in this thread it did not take long to put together. This is a youtube playlist going over my first 30 ship losses. Video sucks but the audio came out well.There are some good lessons, and if you know the game there's some funny stories.

I am then always surprised when I read in the patch notes about some weapon not sitting right or intersecting with a ship's hull. This must be really important to some. The 3D models in the info to the guns are also pretty and yet useless. When was the last time you have looked at those? i look at them every time i run some mission. because they are cool Whitehound wrote: What I do like and find useful are the engine trails, because they give me information about where a ship is, into which direction it is moving and how fast. stop being pvper and evading most of the game Eve is bigger than killboard

With the effort it takes to assign stars on each wallpaper for every system in Eve, one must wonder how much dev time went into this... I questioned this as well. The dev responsible respoonded that he did it in his off time. While it doesn't do anything for me, as I agree with those that find it useless, I have no problem with a dev doing stuff like this on their own time. I do find it impressive the things that some people will get excited about.

Not everyone likes the things you like.
