Starrakatt Celtic Anarchy The Bastard Cartel 651	Posted - 2017.02.18 22:38:44 - [2] - Quote There is no such thing as a Watchlist. And if there was one, it would called a Buddylist, and it would already be sorted alphabetically. Join Celtic Anarchy! Sneaky bastard.

Not a bad idea, would make finding people if you have several people added to your watchlist.

Lugh Crow-Slave 3796	Posted - 2017.02.19 01:53:54 - [4] - Quote ... or you could just add them alphabetically. to be honest if you have so many people in it that you need this you have to many on your watch list. Teach your fleet to broadcast BLOPS Hauler

Nat Silverguard Aideron Robotics 704	Posted - 2017.02.19 07:57:10 - [6] - Quote i won't be even using this feature but i see no harm also. i usually put the FC at top, then my 2 cap chain buddies, then the rest of the logibros, then ewars. the rest should broadcast. Just Add Water

This would be a terrible idea I always add the "special snowflakes" or the really important people in a fleet for that matter first and then the rest after them. 100 times easier to find the important people in the list that way and I can be lazy and not have to remember their character names.
Daichi Yamato Jabbersnarks and Wonderglass 3766	Posted - 2017.02.19 14:15:04 - [10] - Quote I wouldn't use this but can't see why not. Just click name to sort by ascending/descending but also let me drag and drop them into any order i like. For those worried about miss clicking, what about the ability to 'lock it'.

IF THEY WERE GOING TO STRUCTURE IT, this is how I'd rather they do it, chain of command

And I still haven't heard what extra utility this would provide over the overview BLOPS Hauler

Teach your fleet to broadcast There are other uses for a watchlist besides Logi, and generally speaking it would be nice to have a bit more functionality like sorting. Heck, while we're at it can we get groups too, like the drones window?

Generally keeping track of various people, roles, or that one idiot that never seems to catch the fleet warp. They're almost essential for anything that involves assigning drones too. This sort of organization is especially important with the increased emphasis CCP has been putting on fleet based PvE. Besides, generally speaking more robust tools allow for more complexity and player inventiveness, which is always fun.

I'm not saying this should be a high priority but I do think a rework of the Watchlist (and the fleet UI in general really) should be somewhere on CCP's to-do list.
