Fleet interface

The Fleet User Interface

The fleet interface can do some handy things for you. This is a merge and edit of all previous fleet window UI articles.

Fleet Window

The general fleet window has 2 settings, you can see a flatlist or a hierarchy

Flatlist

Fleet as flatlist In this screenshot you can see the fleet as a flat list. You see the ranks of people in the fleetlist but you can't see what wing or squad people are in. In this example Red is the fleetcommander. Green are the wingcommanders and blue are the squadcommanders. Normal fleetmembers get no colour.

Broadcasting

File:Broadcasts.JPG Broadcasting(Clickable)	Broadcasting to the fleet 1 Enemy Spotted - Broadcasts to: Global - You can click this one if you see an enemy.

SC will broadcast to everyone in the squad and squadmembers broadcast to everyone in the squad too. (limited they are within the broadcast range) 2) Everyone This will broadcast your command to everyone in the fleet (limited they are within the broadcast range) 3) Superiors This will broadcast to your direct superiors. If you are in wing1 squad1 only the fleetcommander, the wingcommander of wing1 and the squadcommander of squad1 will get this broadcast. (limited they are within the broadcast range)
File:BroadcastDistanceToFleetmember.JPG Checking the distance(Clickable)	Broadcasting your location extra option The broadcast option Location has an extra feature. If you rightclick on the broadcast and click on distance, you get a popup with the distance between you and that fleetmember in jumps and in lightyears (ly). The amount of jumps is calculated in on the shortest route setting.

Fleet composition

Who's in the fleet and what are they flying? The fleet composition window will give you some extra information on your fleetmembers Only people in command positions have access to this screen and you can only see your subordinates. This means a squadcommander will only see his squad, a wingcommander his wing and the fleetcommander and the boss will see the entire fleet. 1 Pilotname - Shows the name of the pilot 2 Location - Shows where the pilot is located 3 Shiptype - Shows what ship the pilot is flying 4 Shipgroup - Shows what shipgroup the pilot's ship belongs to 5 Fleetrole - Shows the role in the fleet. i.e. Squadmember, squadcommander, wingcommander or fleetcommander 6 Leadership skills - Shows what leaderships skills the pilot has. First number is Fleet Command, second is Wing Command and last is Leadership

History

File:BroadcastHistory.JPG Broadcast history(Clickable)	Checking what has been broadcasted In the broadcast history you are shown all broadcasts which you have turn on in the broadcast settings. It also shows who it was from and who it was send to.
File:VoiceHistory.JPG Voice history(Clickable)	Who said something over Eve Voice Here you can see who said something on the fleet's Eve Voice channel(s). Eve voice isn't used by the uni. We use teamspeak
File:MemberHistory.JPG Member history(Clickable)	History of the membership In this window you can see what members were in the fleet, what roles they have been gives and when they left. This is great when you want to make an AAR and see what happened in the fleet composition.
File:LootHistory.JPG Loot history(Clickable)	Who looted what When you create a fleet in the Uni you must enable Loot Logging. When this is active, all loot events are sent to members of the fleet, making it very easy to divide the spoils collected in a fleet operation (e.g., ratting, PvP engagement, wormhole operation, etc.). You can export the loot log to disk so that you can collect all the info in Microsoft Excel, if you wish. Right click the loot logging tab and click "export." This is saved to C:\Users\(your PC user account name)\Documents\EVE\logs\Fleetlogs
