When you first create a new character, their medical clone will automatically be located at the academy space station in the [[~~Tutorial_and_Career_Agents_in_EVE~~#~~Starter_Systems_in_EVE~~|starter system]] where they begin their life.

When you first create a new character, their medical clone will automatically be located at the academy space station in the [[Tutorial and Career Agents in EVE#Starter Systems in EVE|starter system]] where they begin their life.

You can move your medical clone elsewhere by setting a different Home Station. Dock up in a station (or citadel) and either using the Clone Bay, or in the absence of such, simply right click on the station's link (top left corner of the screen), selecting "Set Home Station" from the contextual menu to move your medical clone to that station.

To remote install a clone you must be at a station with a Clone Bay. The simplest way to remotely install a clone is to open the Clone Bay in the station facilities and select "Change Station". This will give you the list of possible stations you can swap to.

Unlike the medical clone, jump clones require specialized training ({{sk|Infomorph Psychology}}), and to install one you need to be docked at a station with a Clone Bay, a citadel with a Stand Up Clone Service, or access to a [[Rorqual]] or [[Titan]], to use an onboard Clone Vat Bay, if fitted.

Furthermore, and again unlike medical clones, these can be activated at will: you "jump" from one clone to another. There is, though, a cost per use at NPC stations for 900,000 ISK. There is also a one-day cooldown between uses, which can be reduced by training {{sk| Infomorph Synchronizing}}. If you "jump" from one jump clone in a player-owned [[Upwell structure]] to another jump clone in the same structure, you avoid the cooldown.

Players use jump clones to safeguard valuable [[implants]] and to quickly travel around New Eden.
