An Eye For An Eye
Rule of Three

Ok, well I live in drone space currently, but have lived in several other regions. When looting it is common in a Raven to shoot your wrecks/cans due to the tractor beams needing lock. However, i never much cared until i got to drone space and when you shoot a can, you just killed 100% of your rat. You get no bounty to make it ok, that was the bounty. So I propose a "feature" of the tractor beam:
*When active on a can/wreck, no other modules may be active on the wreck other then a salvager.*
This would stop people from killing cans on accident, and give me far less headachs knowing i just blew up 4-10mil. -Venix

doesnt matter how much attention you pay, 3-4 hours of ratting will make you kill a can sometime with 2 tractor beams and torps.

Er, no - the entire point of paying attention is that you hit the right button instead of the wrong one.
If tractors somehow auto-fired torps you may have an argument, but they don't.

That would be nice, because fingers DO slip, despite having full control.
Back in december I wanted to salvage a wreck in an asteroid belt, but I accidently hit a weapon key instead of the salvager. While the wreck wasn't destroyed, CONCORD came swiftly and converted my ship into a wreck.

1: No daily downtime.
2: Updated dump of the database.
3: An update of the ingame browser, to fix ex: slow tables. |

Fortunately, the design ethos in Eve has never been centred around protecting the user from themselves. This is why you won't get a magic feature that stops you making mistakes when you slip up, just like you won't get your stuff back if you get scammed and petition a GM.

agreed.
maybe its the way you have your raven set up. put the trac beams on the end of the setup away from the nasty torps.

If you take the tractor out of the high slot area, then it becomes a LOT harder to F1-F6...F7 it. Move it down near the lows, use the mouse to activate, so it's a completely different motion you're using for "fire" vs. "Loot Collection"
