Hey CCP I am watching the Eve Vegas videos. At 02:38:35 in day 2: http://www.twitch.tv/ccp/b/471935009 you show a concept for a reworked in-space UI. I have to say I really like how the locked targets are highlighted in the overview.
Anyway I immediately thought, "Since lots of players would like to set up vastly different displays, give them a widely known and capable tool to do it." Four or five years ago I wouldnt dare ask this question; but with your recent codebase improvements how possible would it be to let players write layout and style with html and css?
here's one way i might choose to set up my windows:
// custom window definitions
#NJCombat.stack // all visible in vertical stack
..#selectedItem
..#drones
..#watchList
..#broadcasts
#NJIntel.tabs..// window of stacked tabs
..#dScan
..#peopleAndPlaces
..#inventory
#NJStation.tabs
..#eveMail
..#charSheet
..#assets
..#market
..#wallet
//Mandatory layouts
#space
..#infoPanels
..#hud
..#targets
..NJCombat
..NJIntel
#station
..#infoPanels
..#stationPanel
..NJStation
#pi
..#piControls
..#planet
#map
..#infoPanels
..#mapControls
..#map
#cq

I'd personally love to see the Eve UI open up to layout and scale customization. This was brought up at the UI roundtable during Eve Vegas. The reply was, sadly, somewhat dismissive.
Paraphrasing: "We'd rather everyone's eve look mostly the same, so everyone is having identify-ably shared experiences"
He did seem open to the idea of making individual elements scale-able or position-able within the game interface, though. He even added on to the scaling suggestion by suggesting that the windows simplify as their scaled down, to retain readability.

This idea does have some merit ... but what's the danger of a configurable ui ... would it leave the game vulnerable to more sophisticated bots? |
