Currently, utilizing jump bridges require individuals to enter a POS' password prior to being able to jump. Allowing usage of JB networks requires proliferating these passwords to hundreds or thousands of players.

By implementing a POS management option to allow jump bridge access to be based on standings, password proliferation will be completely unnecessary. POS manager should be able to allow usage to be restricted to own alliance, allow good or excellent standings alliances, or (less likely) require a password. Pilots will spend less time looking up and typing in JB passwords. Rival alliances will no longer have widely distributed passwords of their enemies to exploit.

Couldnt agree more very good idea. Would stop alliances having to deactivate JB and change passwords because of a leak will make the game as a whole and the actual concept of JB much smoother.

I like it.

Also, allowing the map to use your bookmarks and take jump bridges that you know of into account when route planning would be nice too.

Interesting idea, Mike, but not really sure that it would be very easy to implement JB paths with autopilot. Any thoughts on how this would work?

The same way the autopilot works with jump gates, with the minor twist that it would have to filter the jump bridges in a system based on your permission to use them.

For the record, I fully support the ability for naive players to autopilot into my bubble camps :)

Not signed

JB's and Jump freighters have reduced opertunitys for small gang warfare as it is, For 'blue standing' entitys to be able to use a jumpbridge without the insertion of a password just ruins it more.

Ofc, this is gonna get supported by 99% of people, cos lets face it, Highsec'ers aren't bothered, and the rest of you are all BFF's

CCP, For once listen to your MINORITY.

Jump Bridges already hurt part of small gang PvP by removing the camps within pipes. Those were fun and created strategic value to certain systems in the game where there wouldn't be otherwise. The implementation of JB's removed that, and has given alliances a huge advantage in their own space against people roaming around looking for kills.

Doing this is only going to make 0.0 even smaller, and even harder to get kills in. It's hard enough for small gangs, don't make it even harder.

The lazy part of me say yes. The rational part of me say hell no.

I say yes to remove password, but I say no to allow them to be used based on standings. Make it so that jump bridges can only be used by the alliance that owns them. Would force the nap-trains to make some hard decisions, join up in one giant alliance or set up multiple jump bridge networks, one for each alliance.
