Once you have a spot in mind, fly your frigate into roughly that area. Extra credit if your spot is far from the undock, making your cyno ships slightly less likely to be popped. You want to pick a cyno spot where there is as little station geometry as possible between that square bracket and the void of space. Undock and look at the station geometry in comparison to its square bracket.Step 2: Understand the station model and map its docking radius
If you’re really elite, you could also just add warp core stabilizers until your maximum targeting range is roughly 8,500m. Either use a shorter range warp scrambler module so you have the right range after the bonus, or use a different ship. Be careful if your ship has a hull bonus that will boost its range. The easiest thing to use is a J5b Phased Prototype Warp Scrambler I – it has an optimal range of 8,625m. To prepare the perfect bookmark, bring a rookie ship or frigate with an afterburner and a module with a range of roughly 8,500m. If your station is for a JF and you will be moving into hisec, extra credit for a station where aligning to the hisec gate is easy – or even instant!
When planning routes or staging systems, this guide can help you start with the best possible station: Not all stations are created equal: the combination of station geometry and station docking radius means some stations are impossible to light a perfect cyno on, while some are so generous it’s hard to go wrong. I’ll begin with instructions, then include a discussion of background mechanics and open questions. The guide is based on extensive testing and checking distances using the new “bookmarks in space” feature, gives a step-by-step methodology, and avoids often repeated but potentially fatal advice, such as using a salvager I to check cyno range (it isn’t enough on its own). If you follow this guide, and the station geometry makes it physically possible, you will hit the sweet spot 100% of the time and land inside docking radius without bumping. It is not a guide to adequate cynos, or cynos that will work 99 times out of 100. This is a guide to lighting perfect station cynos. EVE Online Perfect Station Cynos Guide by coelomate
