- The module icons next to targets can be clicked to disable that module. I've found it useful for juggling multiple salvagers and tractor beams when dealing with a lot of nearby wrecks.
- Secure Containers can hold more volume than they take up in your cargo bay. With some micromanaging, these can increase your effective total cargo space.

Don't drink and fly, or if you must, at least use a disposable ship.
Why there should be a breathalyzer to login to Eve:

I have a better idea. Create an EVE wiki. Players add content, CCP/ISD/GMs/players that demonstrate good faith moderate it.
Eve Wiki is already in progress.
Unforunately, I'm terribly impatient about it.

You can open all the cans in your cargo at once by doing <ctrl-a> to select them, then right-click on one and pick "Open all".

- You can remap the ctrl-Q instaquit option in the proper menu if you press it too many times on accident
- The << and >> icons on the left and right of the display open and close the small minibuttons and ship modules displays in space.
- Right clicking on the capacitor opens the same menu as right clicking your ship.
- You can showinfo fitted modules and charges on your ship to show them with all active bonuses.
- Tech2 gear often has the same stats as the best t1 named, but with a greater fitting cost, and often a cheaper price.
- Amarrians focus on EM damage, Caldari on Kinetic, Gallente on Thermal, and Minmatar explosive.
- Short range turrets will typically do more damage over time than longer range turrets.
- At optimal range or shorter, gun damage is only affected by tracking. At optimal + falloff, you have a ~50% hit chance. At optimal + 2x falloff, you have a 5% hit chance.
- Reprocessing spare loot from NPC wrecks can net you a lot of minerals.
- Ships with lots of lows are suited to armor tank. Ships with lots of mids are suited to shield tank.

You can zoom (like a tele lens) if you hold CTRL + LMB + RMB and then drag your mouse in various directions.
You don't even need to press CTRL afaik. Just press the RMB then hold it and press the LMB, and then continue holding both of them and move your mouse around to zoom. It can get stuck like that though, which requires a session change to fix.
Yes, you can zoom normally with only LMB & RMB.
But if you try to hold CTRL you will see a different kind of zoom (you can basically zoom in to a single turret if you want)
You're doing it Wrong!
Pressing LMB then RMB performs the "normal zoom". If you press the RMB first, then the LMB you get the "telephoto zoom".
CTRL + LMB locks a target from space or the overview.
ALT + LMB performs "Look At" on a target from space. ALT + LMB on empty space performs "Reset Camera".
Hmm, that's weird. because i don't get telephoto zoom without holding CTRL. Doesn't matter which order i click with the mouse buttons i still only get the "standard" zoom?

If you double-click the squad tab in the gang window it will break off into a separate window which you can then move around the screen and resize.
To improve performance when needed, turn off sound, turrets and effects by pressing ctrl+alt+shift+f12, ctrl+alt+shift+t and ctrl+alt+shift+e respectively.
Warp Disruption Probes, Mobile Warp Disruptors and Doomsday Devices cannot be used in low sec.

Team speak and Vent:
Designate the "Speak" button to a spare button on your mouse if available.
ie, on the side where your thumb rests etc.
saves reaching for the keyboard

In your Eve shortcut icon on your desktop:
Right click, select properties.
In the field for "shortcut key" press "e"
This will enable you to open Eve by pressing CTRL + ALT + E
Do the same for Teamspeak or Vent but use T or V respectively

If you want to compare your orders to the market click the "View Market Details" in your wallet and the market window will open.
Stack all will stack all packaged items (displaying a number in lower right corner). To repackage all items use Ctrl+A, right mouse and repackage.
Just make sure not to repackage all those cans being used to organize that hangar...
<-- guilty 
use audit secure cans. this will make you unable to do this.

Sliding a microwarpdrive into the F1 slot of your UI and keeping F1 jammed down allows you to Autopilot and MWD to each gate every time ;)
 
does this count as a macro?

"ctrl + shift + f" opens the fitting window, even in space, useful for checking some ship info
"ctrl + shift + alt + t" turns off all turret effects, can help with lag
"ctrl + shift + alt + e" turns off all effects, like shield boosters, armor reps, shield hardeners, webs, ect. can help with lag
the overview is highly customizable, by right clicking on the overview and clicking open overview settings. I like to remove almost everything but ships.
right click on everything

Using the tactical overlay on your solarsystem map shows a larger layout in AU instead of kilometers; it's extremely handy for exploration, but also good for.. *ahem* "other" activities. 
The F11 window shows your current directional scanner orientation (assuming it's not 360 degrees) as a green overlay, allowing you to see what you're covering with your current scan.

You can drag and drop items from your hangar or cans directly onto a ship you are loading without opening it's cargo bay.
(Still don't understand why this works for ships and not cans )

Dunno if this could somehow be condensed, but:
Appearance is important in EVE. As an example, if you look like a "carebear" because you're mining, NPCing, or mission-running, people will want to attack you, given the chance. Thus, playing decoy is often useful if you want to get someone into engagement range; just sit there and wait for them to attack you, then open fire at the right moment. Conversely, if you look tough enough (either through ship class and fit or actions), it will sometimes scare off the less determined, even if you're not fit for PvP.

When you have multiple way points set, you can optimize your route:
1. Open the map (f10)
2. Make sure the map control panel is open.
3. Click on the way points tab.
4. Click optimize.
Voila, the most efficient route is generated to all the waypoints. A useful tool when picking up purchases, doing trade routes, multiple courier missions, or other carebear stuff.

Two things with cynos:
> You can't active a cyno with 450 LO if the LO is in stacks of 200 and 250. Keep the stacks split to avoid pressing the button by mistake.
> When you set your cyno to manual and turn it off you get a little error that pops up and says "Can't do this because it has x seconds remaining" and then will flash red. To make it go green again (I.e. to attempt to turn it off again and be given the timer) either drag a module from one slot to another, or show / hide passive modules.
P.s. I hate cyno'ing.

Do not join gangs with players who's corp are engaged in war, you will become a legitimate target for their opposition.
Do not join gangs with players at all, unless you know them. People at war can join after you and you will unknowingly become a legitimate target for their opposition. |

to split a stack of items, hold down shift and drag it into the new location. You will then be prompted for how many of the item you want to move.

It is possible to do invention jobs remotely, at a corp POS. The bpcs have to be in a corp hangar in an outpost or NPC station and selected via the 'Corp Blueprints' screen, and all the other materials need to be put in mobile labs at the POS.

When you click "dock" instead of "warp to" a station, pressing CTRL + Space stops the automatic docking sequence when you drop out of warp.

If jumping into a gatecamp with a bubble, always reapproach the gate.
If planning to reapproach the gate, always remember to wait 25 seconds before decloaking so you don't get a session change in progress message when you try to jump.

how to make lots of money in exploration if you are totally new to it :
Ask me to help you out and you could get a 220M ISK payout on your first outing

A good trick to avoid bouncing off when you do that is, after waiting about 20 seconds, right-click the gate and make it the first waypoint for autopilot, then press the autopilot button. When you've turned around, pulse the MWD (if you have one). Just make sure you turn AP off after you've jumped.
