Fleet interface: Difference between revisions

* {{co|wheat|Broadcasts}}: Another way to make broadcasts (as well as the buttons along the bottom of the fleet window).

* {{co|wheat|View as Flat List/Hierarchy}}: Switches between the list of fleet members being displayed as a flat list and a hierarchy.

* {{co|wheat|Store Fleet Setup}}: Allows the Fleet Commander to store the fleet setup for future reference. Note that all wings must have unique names.

* {{co|wheat|Open Join Requests}}: This allows the Fleet Commander to see a list of people who have requested to join the fleet, but who have not been approved yet.

* {{co|wheat|Scope}}: You can select what type of fleet you are looking for. You can select from the following options:

** '''My Available Fleets''': Select any available fleet you can join.

* {{co|wheat|Range}}: You can choose the range in which you want to look for fleets. You can choose between '''Any''', '''5 Jumps''', '''10 Jumps''' and '''Region'''.

* {{co|wheat|Min. Standing}}: This will limit the number of fleets based on your standing towards the Fleet Boss. You can choose here from '''Any''', '''Good''' (above 0.0) and '''Excellent''' (above 5.0). With this you can limit the fleets so you don't accidentally join a fleet with those you have negative standings towards.

|This is the place to change options for your fleet advert:

* {{co|wheat|Fleetname}}: Here you can give your fleet a name.  

* {{co|wheat|Fleet description}}: Give a description to your fleet.

* {{co|wheat|Open Fleet to}}: Restrict joining to certain people/groups:

** '''Corporation''': Only people in your corporation can join your fleet.

** '''Alliance''': Only people who are in your alliance can join your fleet (with options for minimum standing and minimum security status).

** {{co|wheat|Based on standings}}: Only people who have standings higher or equal to the set standings or security status.

Once you have set up a fleet advert, you should be able to see it in the Fleet Finder tab. You can click and drag the Fleet Boss's portrait to a chat window to link the fleet in a chat channel.

Your fleet advert will display as below:

<br />

# {{co|yellow|Enemy Spotted}}:  You can click this one if you see an enemy. This is not generally used in [[EVE University]] fleets. ''Broadcasts to the whole fleet.''

# {{co|yellow|Need Armour}}: Click this button if you need your '''armor''' to be repaired. ''Broadcasts to fleet members on grid with you.''

## '''Superiors''' Broadcasts to your direct superiors. For example, if you are in Squad 1 of Wing one only the Fleet Commander, the Wing Commander of Wing 1 and the Squad Commander of Squad 1 will get this broadcast.  

When you broadcast your location the players receiving your broadcast will see a notification with your location. They can right click the broadcast to open up several options:

In this window you can select whether you want to receive certain broadcasts. For example, you may want to turn off the {{co|yellow|Need Armor}} if you aren't in a logistics ship.

You can also change the background color for each type of broadcast to make them easier to spot in the {{co|wheat|History}} tab.

<br />

The Fleet Composition window will give you some extra information on your fleet members. Only people in command positions have access to this screen and you can only see your subordinates. This means a Squad Commander will only see his squad, a Wing Commander his wing and the Fleet Commander and the Fleet Boss will see the entire fleet.

* {{co|wheat|Fleet Position}}: Shows the pilot's current position in the fleet.
