This particular bit of code converts the real security value to a single-place decimal (actually, to a integer representation between -1000 and +1000, but whatever) prior to doing the comparison, rounding the same way that we do for ingame sec display. |

CCP Greyscale, Players have dropped a few ideas to help account for POS array "online/offline shenanigans" over here: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4697380#post4697380
I made a somewhat complicated suggestion for tracking time and costing benefits per structure, but this idea by Maenth "seems simple" - linking all arrays of same type as a group: you could have all, or none online. |

Two things:
1) Are you still going to require Charters for 0.4? 2) Would you please randomize the minerals for those 0.4 moons on patch day to give back the excitement of scanning :)

I know this is not related to industry so close, but one of the most bad thing with the pos system for me now, onlineing many defensive modules like 20-30 modules with 2 min timer, is serious pain.
Need reduced online time for those, or need a queue for pos module actions like online offline unanchor .. Queue system like skill training, when i can set all the actions i want, and come back after 2 hour, to check te status.
This is something its possible in the future or you guys want rework the whole pos system so wedont expect better handling for the old system?

the odds of anything nontrivial happening with the pos code is zero within margin of error. |

CCP Nullarbor wrote:Careby wrote:I may have missed a detail or two, but isn't there going to be a problem with the number of available office slots at stations with research?
Currently a small corp uses a POS for research because of limited station research slots, and can locate their office at any station in the system. If those corps move their research from POS to station post-Crius, it seems to me they will have to locate their office at a station that has research. And because of system-wide cost scaling, there seems to be little incentive to manufacture at stations without research. Which would seem to lead everyone to congregate at the research stations, which would then lead to high office rent at those stations. This might make it very expensive to run corporation research jobs.
A large corporation doing research may have no problem with high office rent. An individual doing research doesn't need to rent an office. But a small corporation which does need a corporation hangar for blueprint research may find the office cost difficult to bear. Are there any planned changes to the number of available offices and/or the rent structure? And if office rent will not be an issue, why will anyone use a non-research station for industry?
This is a very valid concern and something we will keep a close eye on.
Have you considered merging the Research station service with the Industry one? With this update, the two feel a bit more disconnected than necessary.
One upside of a change like that would be an 'opening up' of more systems to work from. My 'home' region of Derelik, for example, could use a nice shaking up like this (though with the moon bombshell that region and others like it may go a bit nuts for the next few months).

Dude you should have played a few years ago. Five minutes to anchor, five minutes to online. Minimum. Unanchoring was even worse, with like 10-20mins times for stuff like manufacturing arrays or labs. An overhauled POS system might get some kind of queue, but I can't ever see it happening for the current system.
The main thing we need for starbases right now is a balancing pass on the weapons. Most of their stats are identical to the original release in the 2004 Exodus expansion - which pre-dates capital ships of any kind. Since then there have been huge increases in general ship hitpoints, including ten-fold increases for capitals, and cruisers able to pack more hitpoints than some actual POS guns. We've seen a rebalance of speed, with many ships easily able to beat the tracking of even the fastest weapons. Revisited ship ewar never made it through to starbases, where POS scrams don't shutdown MWD or MJDs, and modules like damps and ECM take over a minute to lock their natural target of logistics cruisers. Energy neuts have long been rendered useless by 5 minute siege cycles, and by fighter-bombers able to incapacitate modules in seconds.
This doesn't have be a major project, and it serves as an excellent way to tide us over with starbases until a full overhaul is in sight. A balancing pass on starbase weapon stats is no different from the recent reviews of Hybrid weapons, Citadel torps or Interdictors. But it needs to be done, because right now our Deathstars have the firepower of an X-Wing. |

After finally having some time, I anchored my first ever POS and brought online a few modules I wanted to test with.
Thankfully I've had experience watching others do the online/offline thing, so I knew what to expect there (plus I helped with PI requirement planning for the last one, when fuel blocks got introduced). My questions/feedback are regarding the modules.
-> As I mentioned in the Research thread, my Research V skill is not being taken into account. Though some are saying its a UI bug, the timer appeared off as well by the end. I appear to have confirmed this, as the research POS lab is being accounted for both in UI and timer.
I do like the risk/reward thing here for research. Research V and a decent lab can cut research times by over half, which sould certainly help when dealing with larger PBOs than the ones I'm playing with (biggest ones are Thrasher and one of the new mobile things).
-> What is the background / codebase behind the Compression Array? Its insane. 20 Mil m3 capacity, compresses 10:1 by volume instantly. This basically turns every moon into a potential Rorqual, minus the boosts. And on that note, what is your eventual goal for the Rorqual's purpose after this change hits?

Reshuffle all the moons in 0.4 as of the Crius release
A land rush by those most connected with the community, those most informed, has already begun. As with the last major moon change, where moon deposits were changed, nobody should know until the change actually hits the server. |
