I wonder where the idea came from

[Maudite 9]

From the article: "The original Idea came to me out of nothing." What, don't you believe the guy? 8) During Agony classes when I used the fleet tool I kept wondering why nobody else seemed to have it. The cat is out of the bag now! Cheers, Maudite

It's only taken about 4 years

Hmm... IMHO the description reads totally different to what your fleet manager does To me it sounds more like a DOTLAN Radar spin-off. It seems to be centered around the fleet members' geographical positions, not about their fitting? I do not think that NC fleets are as tactically equipped as AGONY fleets typically are. I think it's more like a blob control device

True, it is functionally different than our fleet manager, but has a similar motivation (allowing the FC to know what's in his fleet).

Yeah, sounds completely different to our fleet manager (there's some overlap, but this seems to be more of an organisation tool, while ours is primarily a fleet fitting tool). A great idea though. I wonder whether other parties will start developing (and maybe even distributing) similar tools?

[sp=Scar]"Yea I think we used something like this in Provi with Agony like ages ago. You put in your ship type and it would track what you were in and where. NC should probably catch up abit."[/sp] [sp=Storm]Yeah AGony`s tool for FC`s was amazing and the first tool of its kind, this sounds like a 2.0 version of that. I saved a screenshot from agony`s FC tool somewhere it was way cool. FC had all fleet Comp right at his screen and it told him when he would lose ships, so he knew he had x Drakes/Missileboats x Number Arty there location etc, it was awesome. And it was like 3 Yrs Ago [/sp] LOL !lol [sp=EDIT: Sorry NC but...] [/sp]

Do you want to know a dirty secret? I know the guy who animates those crazy frog videos... he's come a long way from when we used to make machinma vids in SWG.

If it cheers you up any, last time I spoke to him I told him to go **** himself. And it takes a LOT to make me say that. Whiny little arsehole.
