Pilot Tracking

Pilot tracking provides a dynamic solution for real-time location monitoring of team members, significantly boosting coordination and safety within your operations. This feature seamlessly integrates with the map, delivering the following benefits:

• Automatic Updates: The map position is refreshed automatically, removing the need for manual input and ensuring you have the most current locations at all times.
• Auto-detection of Connections: System connections between pilots are auto-detected, allowing you to concentrate on exploration without distraction.
• Enhanced Coordination: By knowing the real-time locations of your team members, you can better coordinate movements and strategies, optimizing mission outcomes.

This system's ability to maintain real-time awareness supports efficient navigation and discovery in EVE Online's vast and complex wormhole space.

Automatic Tagging of Target Systems

The automatic tagging feature assigns sequential letters (A, B, C, etc.) to target systems of the same class originating from the same system. This functionality simplifies navigation and bookmark management within the game.

Manual Adjustment

Tags can be manually adjusted by using the following keys:

• + : Increment tag
• - : Decrement tag
• Up : Move tag up
• Down : Move tag down

Bookmarks exemple in game

Here are examples of how the tags appear, aiding easy navigation:

• ">> LS - EJC": Represents a low-security system tag.
• ">> LSB - KWE": An example of subsequent tagging from the same origin.
• ">> HS - MCE": Represents a high-security system tag.

By automating and customizing system tagging, you enhance your operational efficiency and map readability within the game environment.
