You know you can copy skills without a mirror now? Why do you need a mirror? |

A refresh of sell orders/contracts also is something that helps greatly. Some items are not seeded and it's difficult to get a hold of them otherwise.

I'm planning on building a Supercarrier on SISI, and would like to set up a POS & gather all the material for it, knowing it'll take about 30 days to JUST build the carrier & further 35 days (aprox) for my skills to be complete. Although now i won't need to worry about skills i guess, due to the "/copyskills " command ! ^^ Although, it says that only my "fully trained skills" will be copied, does this mean that Only my skills that i've trained to Level 5 will be copied ? Not quite sure how it'll work :/

Not quite sure how it'll work :/ Fully trained levels of a skill. You also will have to login to your character on TQ before the data gets saved and therefore available for that feature. As I understood it, that data gets saved each day.

I will try it right now, I've already used the command on the SISI server, signing into TQ just like you mentioned. ^^ |

You seem to have it backwards.
First you log TQ, which will then save a snapshot of your skills.
Then you log SiSi and can copy that snapshot over onto your SiSi character. |

I tried it, and it did work, it copied 7 skills. Was afraid it'd reset the skills that were NOT maxed for some reason, but it didn't do that c: Was slightly paranoid though! ^^ |

We'll get warning before the mirror itself happens, though, right? |

Depends what you mean? So, we usually update the mirror as part of a regular downtime. In that respect, you'll get the warning of the downtime timer. We may also post on the forums when we're applying it, but that's usually a couple of hours warning at best. If you mean the date that we take the snapshot on TQ, that's already happened.

I meant telling the players in advance what day the mirror will be applied to the test server. |

Essentially the process as is goes like this: - EVE QA request a new "master" mirror. From request to creation usually takes somewhere between 2 days and a working week. - A "slave" of the master mirror is created for use on a test server (in this case Sisi) - Some processing work is done on the new slave mirror, which we commonly refer to as "pruning". This is removing all of the sensitive info, like POS positions and setups, scrambling moon minerals, removing standings reqs from outposts, etc. This process can take a few days. - Ops let us know the mirror is ready for use - We apply the mirror to Sisi
We don't like to inform players as to when we are going to take the snapshot, as that might cause them to play differently on TQ. Following the creation of the master, I don't necessarily see what the benefit to informing people would be, but obviously I won't have considered all possible use cases, so if you can tell me the value in it we can definitely look into it.

I like knowing the general time frame for a new mirror, such as "new mirror sometime next week," so I don't go and fit out a few hundred ships for a practice the following weekend, just to have to fit out those ships again three days later because there was a mirror!
So +1 to essentially keeping it the same, as in, keep giving us a general time frame that a mirror is upcoming.
BTW, the new /copyskills is soooo brilliant!! Love love love it! Hopefully that will reduce the need for mirrors for ya'll, since we're all well aware that creating a mirror is a time consuming hassle for CCP!
