Session change timer

Session change timer

The session change timer is an important icon which alerts you to how long a session change is in effect. The session change timer is a small circular icon that appears on the upper left hand of your screen when you undock or jump through a gate. It “unwinds” as the session change winds down. While you are in a session change you cannot dock or jump. Not knowing when you can dock/jump and when you can’t, can get you stuck and killed in a situation you could have gotten out of. There are 4 major reasons why you get a session change. First undocking of course, next is when you jump, when you join a fleet or change position in the fleet, and when your ship is destroyed. I cannot stress that last example enough, I have seen many good new pilots lose their pods because they tried to dock after being destroyed instead of warping off.
