Edited by: Undocumented worker on 07/10/2008 03:29:15 Ok, I have SN 4 the mobile lab is located 2 jumps away, the lab is set to allow all. However i keep getting an error message that says the bpo must be in the same system as the lab. Anybody have an idea about why i can't research/copy? IS the skill broken? Am I broken?
BPO: high sec in corp hanger LAB: low sec Jumps: 2 SN: 3

The skill just allows YOU to be in a different place. The blueprint must be in the same system as the POS (assuming you're talking about one). ---

Edited by: Undocumented worker on 07/10/2008 03:51:47 Edited by: Undocumented worker on 07/10/2008 03:49:47 so basically it's just a remote start skill then?
That's kind of disappointing, wish ccp would fix the description

well it means you can save your expensive bpo's in a station instead of your pos that can get attacked, blown up, looted, etc.... <a href="http://rumandmonkey.com/widgets/toys/testgen/6199/"><img src="http://stat.rumandmonkey.com/tests/9/9/6199/25764.jpg" title="Industrialist with teeth" alt="Industrialist with teeth" border="0" |

The skill has 2 functions:
- you can place the BPO in a corporation hangar in the same system of the BPO and research it at the POS without moving the BPO to the POS;
- if the BPO is already in a corporation hangar in the same system of the BPO you can start/deliver the job remotely from x systems away (the range depend on your skill level).
What you can't do is placing the BPO in a corporation hangar in a different system or in a private hangar in the same or different system and research them from there.

Quote: Skill at running research operations remotely. Each level increases the distance at which research projects can be started.
Where in the description does it say anything about lifting constraints about the blueprint's location? I only see phrases about remote starting.

Skill at running research operations remotely. Each level increases the distance at which research projects can be started. Level 1 allows for range within the same solar system, Level 2 extends that range to systems within 5 jumps, and each subsequent level then doubles it. Level 5 allows for full regional range. -- BIG Lottery, BIG Deal, InEve

The skill only has the second function. The first function is possible without the skill.

See above. You don't need the skill to do that. The skill in NO way effects where the BPO may be. None at all. Only where 'you' may be (without it you must be within 3000m of the lab, but you can still put on jobs that have the BPO in an office in the same system as the POS).

Yep seems everyone that doesn't ask first says this, you'd think by now CCP would have changed the description. --

F^^^^^ TBO say if level 1 allows to start it from STATION not a POS then why to hell LVL2 doesnĘt allow to start from a different systems I donĘt care as long as itĘs clearą and to avoid confusion I love this game!!!

Level 1 does NOT allow you to start it from a station. It allows you to start it from within the same solar system (you personally) that means inside the station, or undocked in a belt etc.
The BPO can be at the station even WITHOUT the skill. (you personally have to be at the POS, but not the BPO).
The BPO's possible locations are never effected by the skill at all.

The fact you can start a job from the POS Lab when the BPO is in the station, without the skill even trained to me is a bug and will be eventually fixed. |

It's not a bug. The skill is not supposed to affect the BPO location.
Without the skill YOU personally must be at the POS. Within 3000m of the lab. You can use the S&I window to put on the job though.
It wouldn't make any sense if one level of the skill affected the possible BPO location but the next level didn't. |

The skills description itself isn't confusing... however, all the slightly wrong information spread about it is. This skill very plainly describes what it does. However, all the misinformation spread about it allowing the BPO to be placed in a station and used for POS manufacturing/research is what causes the confusion. That misconception has already been demonstrated numerous times in tis thread already.
BPO's can always be stored anywhere in the same system (has to be a corp hanger). PERIOD. No skills required for this 'feature'. This skill affects YOUR ability to interact with he factory/lab in question. Normally, you have to be withing 3000m of the factory/lab to operate it (start a job). This skill allows you to do it further away than that 3000m, as the description states.
I do agree there should ALSO be a skill that allows the BPO's location to be stretched as well, and that might very well happen, as they've been talking about turning BP's into some sort of license that is tracked in a separate database, instead of an actual item, as they currently exist.

The skill is still worth having, at least at level 1. It's a royal pain in the ass to keep having to physically be in location to start a job. Same with manufacturing and buying/selling remotely. If you do any of this, freeing yourself up from having to always physically be there to get anything done is unbelievably useful (unless you're an alt and never actually leave the system).

Really? So you could have a BPO in the corp hangar of an Orca and start research on it at a POS in the system? And then what happens if the Orca flies to another system?
I wish I had a character on Sisi that could fly an Orca so I could test this...

Nope. Only Two locations. The lab itself, or in a corp office in system.
Can't be in another POS structure, carrier hangar or cargo or anything like that.

Yep, even though you don't 'have' to have it, it's still very useful to have, saving you the undock/travel to POS time. |
