MOTD from the EvE-Scout.TheraMap chat channel:[edit]

We do not expect scouts to sacrifice themselves scanning a hole. If the hole looks to be camped or dangerous you do not have to finish the sig. Please add a note in Tripwire, on the right-hand side, to alert other scouts of the danger.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: My Thera work is showing up on the website as pointing to Thera and not to the non-Thera system! What happened and how do I fix it?

A: This happens when the bookmark is created first from the non-Thera side, with the Thera-side of the bookmark being auto-generated. This is a reason we require turning off Automap. The fix is simple. Record the information for the wormhole from TW, manually remove the WH from Tripwire, then rebuild the WH manually in TW from Thera. If you are prompted to overwrite existing data, that's okay. As always, once done, reload the website to verify your work in TW is being pulled to the website properly.


Q: I scanned down a non-wormhole signature in Thera. Should I add that to Tripwire too, and why?

A: Yes, definitely! Those are usually fairly persistent signatures that last for days, and knowing it is not a wormhole means one less signature others need to chase down while working on the Thera map while it persists.


Q: How can I add some additional time to nearly expiring signature?

A: Open that signature in Tripwire and click the expiration time. You can now adjust the remaining time with your arrow keys.


Q: Can I add anomalies to EvE-Scout Tripwire mask?

A: Nope.
