I've actually been meaning to make a request about this, but forgot.
I was thinking there should be an integrated EFT inspired tool (DFT, I suppose it would be) so that we don't have to buy a bunch of random numbers of modules to see if they fit, or sit down and try to do all the math and factor in skills, etc. Once a fit has been made in the tool, we could select it and stock it like any other fitting.
That would be epic, IMO.
To elaborate: you would go to create new fit, as usual, and one of the options there would be something like "Use Fitting Tool", or something similar. Once you select that, you would get a screen like the dropsuit or vehicle section of the market (depending on what category you chose to create the new fit under) and choose the suit or vehicle. After that, selecting empty slots would again take you to a screen with all the modules you could put in that slot, again sorted like the market is. Once you're done, you just back out, and there's your fitting alongside the other fittings you have. You can then choose to stock that fitting, and you didn't have to spend too much time or ISK figuring the fit out. |

I like the little bit vagueness when it comes to fitting, trying new things, trying to wedge things on when they really shouldn't fit etc.
But this UI redesign should really be a priority
You still would be trying to wedge things on. There wouldn't be too much of a difference between your idea and mine, only thing would be that if there's a module on there that you bought, then decide you want to shed it in favor of another so that the module you really want to fit will work, you don't end up wasting the money you had payed for the now-dropped module. In the end, it would just save a little more time and money.
Also, in case I didn't clarify, the actual fitting window on the fitting tool would be identical to Dust's current fitting window, not EFT's. Just a little sidenote.
