Blueprints can be locked down in a corporate hangar so that they cannot be removed.

A locked blueprint cannot be physically removed from the corporate hanger by any player in the corporation but they _can_ still do research, copy, manufacturing, etc. with it. In order to unlock the blueprint so it can be moved again, I think it needs to go through a vote by the people with the correct privelidges but I'm not 100% sure about how that part works.

Both locking and unlocking are actions done by vote. A vote is proposed by an eligible member to lock down a BPO. I think it's allowed 24 hours for the vote to happen. At the end, if yes votes outnumber the no votes, then the blueprint is locked. It's supposed to require a sanction by the CEO, but I believe I heard it happens without that sanction as soon as the vote is proposed. Unlocking requires another vote and a CEO sanctioned result to unlock before the prints can be removed.
Both systems have bugs that appear. Sometimes prints go into lockdown and come back out for no reason, and sometimes locked prints won't come out even when the full procedure is completed. ______________________________________________________ Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? |

There is truth in this.
I just dealt with prints that went through the entire procedure including the CEO sanction and still wouldn't unlock. After about 12 tries they finally went. |

The 'bugs' are generally from procedures not being followed.
1. A shareholder must request the vote 2. Voting takes 24 hours and the BPO goes into a temporary locked phase (this stops people running off with the BPO while voting is in progress). 3. Once the 24 hours has passed the CEO must sanction the vote.
If the 3 steps haven't been done correctly, then it is possible for the temporary lock to fail or if you try to unlock something that passed the vote but wasn't sanctioned, then weird things can happen. In my experience, if the voting AND sanctioning procedure is done correctly it works.
Having said that, it's a right pain if you have more than a couple of BPOs and needs a fix.
Having a CEO with majority shares makes it easier, unless you're the CEO, in which case it's bloody annoying. ______________________ Isn't it time you learned to fight back? Agony Unleashed Home of the PvP University.

Shareholder must be a corp member as well otherwise they can't see the blueprint in the corp hangar although tht's fairly obvious.
We have found that step 3 isn't necessary for locking as long as nobody votes in the negative. Doesn't even seem to need a majority vote. Unlocking always needs the CEO to sanction it.

[. Unlocking always needs the CEO to sanction it.
Does that mean if the CEO 'gets hit by a bus'(or quits) the BPO will remain in lockdown indefinetly, or will there be another CEO appointed if his account turns inactive?

It won't magically happen, but shareholders can (if I am not mistaken) propose a vote to remove the CEO and elect another. ______________________________________________________ Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? |
