Please allow me to send my modules to a station/port

Currently I can land at a station or port and order my stored modules and Ships, which is nice.

What would be really handy is to be able to send them to a station or port.

I have pretty much everything stored at Jamesons currently and fiddling with ship builds would be so much easier if I could send stuff off while I go farm data and mats.

Thoughts?

I've got this odd feeling that there was a very good reason we couldn't do this (also ships) but for the life of me I now can't remember what it was.

Not very helpful, I admit :)

It's been suggested multiple times, as we're indeed lacking such a push service.

AFAIK there's absolutely nothing that would speak against it.

Hmmm the only main reason things get stamped on and why we can't have nice things is PvP... However I can't see how this would become an advantage?

I just want to send 6 FSD's to farsee - rather than fly there then order then fly 200 ly back to my farm ...

Actually there was (something that speaks against this). While I don't have the link to the original poll -- it was voted upon. The majority went with not allowing pushing ships/modules to any station we're not at.

I'm relatively new to the party here... but would an acceptable compromise for everyone be... flying to distant ports purchasing the modules & those modules then become cargo and are thus able to be transported back to any other station and stored?

This would allow you to say hop in an ASP/DIAMONDBACK jump father and faster... buy what you need for tankier multiroles or fighters and haul it back to your main systems of operation.

As for ships... I'm of the opinion that every ship should be purchasable from any shipyard at regular prices.. but you have to wait a certain time (the same amount of time it would normally cost you to transport modules from that system) if that ship wasn't previously available for purchase there. For the convenience factor/transport fee you would pay extra credits for the transfer similar to how you do with modules. If that cost isn't agreeable to you you could then fly to the closest station and purchase the normal way. Discounts for this are canceled and transfer costs are based on regular prices. You want discounts... you should have to still fly out to get them.

Perhaps a transfer reduction cost... could even be added into power play for one of the major factions as a bonus for progression for them.

Unless it comes up for a vote (again), this will be falling on mostly deaf ears. It was decided long before I came to the game as well... And I've been here for a year.

:) I'm used to game developers ignoring their own forums and players at this point. That's pretty much par for the course these days.

They do and they don't. The problem is that unlike Digital Extremes (Warframe) where I'm used to getting extremely quick responses to bug reports and suggestions, Frontier Development is much, much slower about things. This might not be something worth fighting for at the present time given their plate for next year seems to be filled. There's plenty of other things though that they might be able to work into their scheduled depending on ease of coding or whether it's something actually broken.
