If you look at an anchored Giant can. It says 29days remaining or whatever. How about a JEtcan timer so you know when it will pop.

EVERYONE knows these cans expire in 2 hours.
Why make it any harder than it is on the dev's?
Seriously... try to put a little more effort into thinking and less time on just meeting your quota ok? =============== CEO of Clan Shadow Cadre www.shadowcadre.com ===============

It's not a ridiculous request. It's simple - it's something that the servers already keep track of and just don't display to the end user.
The workaround that everyone uses is to name their cans with the time it was created. Which works. It would be convenient if it were automated.
It's a very minor issue, but people who deal with jetcans frequently would appreciate it.
Supported.

Makes sense to me, as long as it's unobtrusive. Convenient, and it's something the server is keeping track of anyways. Might be some hidden lag bomb associated with it, but it's certainly worth asking for. ----- Bloodmoney Incorporated is recruiting! |

The 'unknown' time of jetcan popping is a nice little piece of jeapardy added to some often reasonably tedious aspects of the game. A timer would also seem out of place on as aspect which is supposed to be random due the ravages of space, etc.
Those with smarts already label cans with the time. A timer just seems so... unreal...

too minor an issue and really only affects lone miners as group miners now have the orca to use so jet cans aren't there long enough to worry about the time...
as one of the others stated there destroyed by the ravages of space due to being of a flimsy construction this should be variable and is to some extent..
as far as i know if you don't name your can it will last about an hour, if you do name a can it will last 2hrs max but you want to make sure you empty it at least 10 mins b4 that and naming a can doesn't take long to do with the time included and then any fleet m8's hauling can then see your time in the overview andnot have to click on anything.

Jetcans are designed to eject rubbish, you don't need to know when they pop, because you're not supposed to place items of value in them.

What's wrong with a change that only makes life easier for solo miners? They're players too. It's not a career I do more than a token amount of myself, but I have no objection to CCP helping other people too.

Yes, and nocxium is supposed to come from miners in lowsec. How's that working?
Seriously though, jetcans aren't for rubbish, they're for things you don't want in your cargo hold right now. If you, say, jettison cap boosters to grab PvP loot, you still want them back, just later. Knowing how much later you can get them back is known information and very useful information in some cases. It should be easily available. ----- Bloodmoney Incorporated is recruiting! |

Hehe, I don't see a problem with this. Don't really need it, but just because people are against it I'll support it I mean, c'mon, it's not game breaking is it?
