PP - apps required

As things stand for me the PP mechanism is to leave the laptop running on my desk at work and log in every half hour to collect materials.

At lunch time I fly the materials where required and return to base to collect more in the afternoon.

Can we please have an app so that I can collect materials without having to have the laptop on all the time so that I can collect the goodies, just like Clash of Clans and similar games.

Automation software is against the TOS.

As far as I understand he is not requesting any kind of automation... he is probably talking about an Android/iOS-App to access the Station-Menu with his smartphone while not at home.

I think it's usefulness is too limited currently, so probably not going to happen.

LOL.
The first Saturday of PP I had an alarm set for 30 minutes.
You can only imagine the disgust from my Commanding Officer when I finally told her why I was running upstairs for 20 seconds! (It was to collect the 10 tokens you ty buggers)!

Now I've found I can get 15 credits for a kill in an enemy system (every 2 minutes) I haven't done this.
When I get to level 3 next week and get 20 tokens per 1/2 hour maybe I'll mix things with missions and trading in my home systems.

This is like having a second install on a laptop. Yes. I did think of doing this................

Asking for this is pretty much equivalent to asking for the allocation to stack in-game, so that your allocation increases by 10/15/25/50 each half hour rather than resets. Not sure what I think of it either way, but it would be a major change.

This, I'm happy to have some input(!), just it would be easier (and more eco-friendly) to have it via the ED app rather than having to have the laptop running on my desk all day.

I've no real interest in PP other than the extra kit. I don't have a downer on PP, happy for anyone who wants to engage with it to do so but it's not for me. When I have the time to play (usually evenings & weekends when SWMBO is putting the kids to bed) I'll go off doing whatever rather than earning merits.

Yet another brainless op. THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO STOP YOU LEAVING STATION AND DOING SOMTHING ELSE FOR THE NEXT 30 MINS. You know...like trade, BH at tes, kill enemy players, crime sweeps, undermine, explore etc. No no no you must be sat in a station waiting for reports. Damit there's no hand holding waaaaa thers nothing telling me i can go do somthing else waaaa. Jesus some people need to get a grip.....argggggggg
