What are "Jump Clones" and how do I use them ?

"Jump Clones" give you the ability to activate them at will and move your character to that clone at will.

What do I need to use "Jump Clones" ?

You need a science skill called "Infomorph Psychology", which allows you to have +1 jump clone per level.

How do I create a "Jump Clone" ?

You have to be in an installation (station/outpost/mothership/titan) with a medical facility to create a "Jump Clone", there is a second tab there in the window to install and destroy them.

To create a "Jump Clone" the owner of the installation must have at least +8 standings to you and your corporation.

How do I activate a "Jump Clone" ?

You have to be docked in a station with no training active, then in the character sheet there is a tab for jump clones, select the one you want to jump to, and right click on it the select "CLONE JUMP".

You can only clone jump once every 24 hours, so use it wisely.

Can I "Jump Clone" to a clone in the same station ?

Yes, and no. You can do it, but the game only allows 1 "Jump Clone" per station, so one of them will be destroyed. Currently it looks as though the "target" clone is destroyed (http://myeve.eve-online.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=262213&page=4#96 )

How do "Jump Clones" and normal clones relate to each other ?

They don't, they are two seperate parts of the game, even if they deal with the same topic of clones. Your clone contract (destination and skill points covered) are transferred to any "Jump Clone" that you activate.

What happens to my current clone when I "CLONE JUMP" ?

Your current clone becomes a "Jump Clone" target even if you are in a station without the required standings or a medical facility. Any implants that that clone might have are preserved in the clone and you don't get any benefits from them because they are not in your active clone.

What happens to my "Jump Clone" contract after activation then ?

It is transferred to where your old clone was before jumping. If your activated clone is in a location with the required standings you can then create another "Jump Clone" there if you want to.

So I can create a "Jump Clone", go to empire and then bounce back and forth between the two ?

Yes but don't forget there is a 24 hour time limit between clone jumps.

What happens if I get podded in my "Jump Clone" ?

You can never get podded in a "Jump Clone", they are targets that you can jump to. If you get podded your normal clone contract applies. So for example, if you are in empire and clone jump to a 0.0 installation and get podded, your empire clone still remains as a "Jump Clone" target.

Can I still train skills after activating a "Jump Clone" ?

Yes, you can start training again right away, but the clone will only get the benefits from any currently installed implants.
