The current jumpclone cooldown is 24h. This leads to a delay if you need to jump daily of some minutes. Sometimes you dont manage to login in time, so its maybe even an hour. This adds up until you can't really login anymore (during night etc) basically loosing a day.

So I propose for us who jump daily to reduce it to 23h to compensate for this.

Of course reducing it to even less woud make Eve a more flexible and elastic place.

He's saying it leads to timezone creep for the jump timer.

Day 1: Log in at 11:55, Activate at 12:00
Day 2: Log in at 12:00, Activate at 12:15
Day 3: Log in at 13:00, Activate at 13:05
Day 4: Log in at 11:55, Cannot activate until 13:06
Day 5: Log in at 12:00. Cannot activate until 13:07

There is no way to nudge it back down to your original time without skipping an entire day, so if CCP wants people to be able to jump once per day, it really should be down to 23h or 23:30 timer.

I don't really have this problem myself, but it seems like an obvious usability fix - this is not so much a disadvantage as it is a bit silly and annoying.

Do the opposite. Increase it to 28 hours so that jumping daily isn't a viable option.

Let me explain. Assume I jump 19:00 in the eveing every day.

I won't be able to do this on the minute, so it creeps back in time by 5-15 minutes every day, sometimes even longer.

So at some point I am only able to jump at midnight or later, or not at all because I am asleep, basically missing one day.

So in order to jump consistently every day the cooldown needs to be 23h.


I would love to have it even shorter but I guess that wishful thinking.
