===Local chat===
Local chat shows you all the pilots in your current system. It's a good idea to separate this window from your other chat windows and make it as tall as possible, so that you can see as many other pilots in local as possible. When you enter a system, you should check the names you see for anyone who you know causes trouble. You should also double-click their names and view their corp/alliance. Do several of them share a corp or alliance? If so, engaging them could mean an incoming gank for you. As you spend more time in the campus, you'll begin to recognize the names of players, corporations, and alliances and can roughly estimate how much trouble you might find in a given system.

{{expansion past | Between 12 July and 16 September 2019 Nullsec zones were under [[Blackout|blackout]], so pilots in will not automatically appear in the local member list like they would in a Highsec or Lowsec system. This means that there is no indication of who or how many other pilots are in the same space system you are in. }}
