FAQ (WIP)

Send suggestions for more FAQ's!

  • How do you evaluate what entity types are useful for each preset?

We check the tactical benefit of said entity VS the cluttering it causes on both the Overview Window List and the Ship Brackets.
If we aren't sure about the cost/benefit, we will usually:

  • Ask for direct feedback on the chat channel.
  • Ask for direct feedback on mass email via the maiiling list.
  • Summon testers to evaluate a pre-build and reach a consensus.
  • Run a Strawpoll.
  • If I click "Save" to commit the changes, the preset name will not save properly.

Sadly the game has a character limit on the Name's input field in addition to some other restrictions:

  • Character limit. Increased from 40 to 80 on the September 2016 release.
  • Cannot input capital letters. Added on the September 2016 release.
  • Cannot input HTML tags (<color> & <fontsize>):
    • There is not an easy solution to this aside from saving as a new preset with default style and shorter name.
    • The "not so easy" solution is to save the preset "as is", export the Overview Profile and edit the Preset name on the .YAML file directly with a text editor.
      - Replace &lt; and &gt; with < and > respectively in the .YAML file.
  • We will reach out to CCP to suggest a small feature patch to widen/remove these limits.
  • My Ship Brackets aren't loading?

This is a known issue due to bad a sync between the Overview profile and the game.
To fix it you need to open your Overview Settings window and click the Ships tab, this will force a resync.

  • How to give you feedback?

The prefered method is to use the Google Form Link next to the Green Feedback Text, both in the MOTD and the Mailing List welcoming mail.
Other methods are:

  • EVE-Mail or convo Zirio or Deuce Syundai in-game.
  • Message Zirio or Deuce Syundai on Slack
  • Message Zirio or Deuce Syundai on Discord

Will be featured in a future comprenhensive Overview Guide. (G)

  • How can I add/update/remove "X" entity(s) on a preset? (G)

If you have an "entity" in front of you in space, you can right click it and select Add/Remove X to/from the Overview
Or open your Overview settings window, go to the Tab Presets tab, and then the Types sub-tab.
Either use the filter to locate the specific entity or look through the list, then check/uncheck the entity(s) you want.

  • How can I add/update/remove "X" state(s) on a preset? (G)

Open your Overview settings window, go to the Tab Presets tab, and then the States sub-tab.
Locate the specific State and select how you want it to be displayed with one of its 3 options to the right.
