NSC Standing Fleet: Difference between revisions

Line 11:

The main job of the fleet boss is to move people in and out of Fleet/Wing command positions when asked to do so. Also, they are responsible for adding/removing new Wings and Squads as needed.

The fleet boss is not the FC, nor in charge of anyone by default.

====Setting up the NSC Fleet====

* There are two main routes into the NSC~~'s area of null security space from~~ these ~~locations:~~

If the NSC standing fleet is not active, double check in mumble or the NSC.E-UNI chat channel that the fleet is down. If there is no fleet, follow these instructions to create one.

** Through Harroule (~~low sec) and MHC~~-~~R3 (null sec~~)

#Open the Fleet window via your NeoCom (NeoCom->Social->Fleet)

** Through Reblier (low sec) and ~~6-CZ49 (null sec)~~

#Right click on the four lines on the fleet tab and select "Form Fleet"

** Other routes should be avoided unless you ~~know~~ the ~~area very well. In particular~~, ~~avoid Orvolle/PF-346~~.

##If you already have a fleet set up saved, you can now load it by following the next steps, otherwise continue on with Step 3.

*Both of the ~~low sec/null sec gates are frequently camped~~ and ~~for~~ your ~~first trip to~~ the ~~NSC you are strongly advised not~~ to ~~attempt~~ to ~~reach~~ the ~~campus unassisted.~~

###Open the Fleet window and click on the four lines to open the Fleet menu.

*Join the ~~NSC~~ standing fleet and ~~Mumble channel. Ask for intel~~ on the ~~route~~, and ~~decide whether to use~~ the ~~Harroule or Reblier routes based on that intel~~.

###Select Fleet setups, then select your saved name.

*Ask for a scout; in many cases, someone will be able to go to ~~your null sec entry system~~ (~~MHC-R3 or 6-CZ40~~) ~~to let you know~~ the ~~best time to enter,~~ and ~~provide a guide~~ the ~~rest of the way~~.

###Make sure the message of the day is up to date.

*Set your autopilot destination to your chosen entry system, then ~~"add waypoint"~~ to ~~[http:~~/~~/evemaps.dotlan~~.~~net~~/~~system~~/PC9~~-AY PC9-AY]~~.

###Continue to Step 8

*Be aware that the ~~gates may be bubbled with mobile warp disruptors, and that every neutral~~ in ~~Local is probably actively trying~~ to ~~find~~ and ~~kill you~~. ~~See~~ the ~~advice below~~ on "~~Traveling Safely~~".

#Once the fleet is created, right click on the four lines again and select "Set Free-Move"

*On arrival in [http:~~//evemaps~~.~~dotlan~~.~~net/system/PC9-AY PC9-AY], dock~~ at the ~~NSC home station ([http://evemaps.dotlan.net/station/PC9-AY_III_-_Intaki_Commerce_Trading_Post Intaki Commerce Trading Post])~~ and ~~set your jump clone~~.

#Set up '''''at least two wings each with a full five squads'''''

*Welcome to the ~~NSC!~~

##Don't worry about fleet leadership skill levels and passing boosts; this is the standing fleet, not a dragonslayer.

##Add wings by right-clicking on "Fleet" and selecting "Create New Wing"

##Add squads by right-clicking on a wing and selecting "Create New Squad"

##Wings and squads can be renamed from the defaults, but please keep them both short and pronounceable and make all the names different. The aim is to be able to say things like "bombers move to red squad" and have people form up without confusion.

#Set the Message of the Day (MOTD) for the fleet.

##Click the "Channel Settings" icon in the fleet chat window and Select the "Open Channel Settings Window" option.

##In the text box, copy/paste the following then select OK <br/> <blockquote>Welcome to the NSC Standing Fleet.<br/> When you are in the fleet, make sure you also are in Mumble. <br/> Drop fleet when you go AFK <br/> Be advised that bubbles are up in PC9. Use tacticals or bounce of celestials when travelling in Null Sec!!<blockquote>

#Create the NSC Fleet Advert

##Select the "Fleet Finder" tab in the fleet window

##Select the "My Advert" tab

##Click the "Create Advert" button at the bottom of the window

##Set the "Fleet Name" to "NSC Standing Fleet"

##Check the "My Corporation" and "My Alliance" check boxes. Also, select "Hide Details in Advert" box at the bottom on the window. Leave everything else as default.

##Select the "Submit" button.

#You can store any fleet setup, whether you created the fleet or not and whether you are fleet boss or not:

##In the fleet menu, click the four lines to open the menu.

##Click "Store Fleet Setup" option

##Enter the name "NSC Fleet" and check the "Include Current Message of the Day Setting" and "Include Current Free-move Setting".

#Marvel at the greatness of the Fleet you have created and welcome people as they join in.

#Save the fleet setup from the Fleet windows setting menu for future use.
