@Andy DelGardo
1) Thank you! :)

2) The price data is for one region only (With the exception of the eve-central region groups).
You can change the region in: Options > Options... > Price Data > Price Region
The default is "The Forge". All price data is for the entire region selected.
So, I'm sorry to say you're stuck with looking it up on eve-central.com

Note: To fix this jEveAssets would need to get a lot more data from eve-central. Making price data update take forever and putting a lot of load on the eve-central server. AKA It's not possible to add, sadly...

Tip:
If you didn't know already:
1) Right click in most tables will show a popup menu.
Select: Lookup > Eve-central
...to lookup the price on eve-central.

3) As Dragonaire so kindly pointed out. You can not lower the update time.
You can use and API proxy (but, that will not get you any new data): Options > Options... > Proxy

Thank you for your feedback. Sorry to not be of more help....

@Dragonaire
Thank you for providing support for the jEveAssets users Big smile

EDIT: Remember when the update timer was not 6 hours (was it 12 or 24 hours, can't even remember...)
Anyway: 6 hours is really awesome!

I use the "main market hubs" or "empire" option for eve central, so i can get a good idea what sell/buy prices are atm. Now imagine i have to group a batch of ALL available T3 subsystems. This is 4 races multiplied by 5 types and 5 different system and each system sells differently in each main market hub. This means i have to do a lot of lookup -> than check the eve-central buy/sell orders, close the tab, click back to eve assets and so on. It would be really great if i some how could simply group all related assets to there "best" selling tradehub.

Maybe send a message to the IPH tool guy, since in IPH it just takes like 5 seconds to get all main tradehub's pricing information for all T1/2/3 items in the game? I guess there are dump pricing files available per hub, so IPH just downloads 5 files in those 5 seconds.

What you ask is not possible, As I said before....
I tried IPH (as you suggested) and got all possible items. And I guess it's not such a long wait after all!

However, I'm pretty sure that IPH also use Eve-Central: marketstat_xml
marketstat_xml does not tell you what region have the min sell/max buy.
Take a look yourself: eve-central marketstat_xml output

What I meant by getting more data was: eve-central quicklook and that will take forever...
Take a look yourself: eve-central quicklook output

The only good news I have for you is that you'll be able to lookup multiple items at once, when the next version is released.
AKA No more back and forth to jEveAssets. Just select everything you want to lookup once and open all the links.

I am really sorry, not to be able to help you with your request...
But, thank you for your suggestion. I agree, It would be awesome, if it was possible.

@Desmont McCallock
That is true. There is no way I can or will argue with that Blink

Have u tried using http://eve.addicts.nl/ api? Its seems faster than eve.central and its actively developed? Maybe make it available for price/region lookups via options menu. I'm also sure the developer of the site might add some extra queries data if useful. He already implemented nearly all of my suggestions :P *cheers*

So maybe if u have time give it a try.

Btw how does this 6h Api restriction work in practice? Is there no "hack" around this somehow? I really like jasset to track my industrial assets and finished products, but this 6h restriction drives my crazy. On what is this 6h linked, api key, application?
I would even go so far and create multiple api keys and somehow switch them so i can have a "current" asset list.


Thx for looking into this feature and the upcoming multiple lookup feature.

EvE central is still being developed, but it's mostly behind the scenes stuff (I know - because Kaladr broke something this week *grin*).

EVE Addicts did just add a 5% simulated buy/sell number - but it's not yet part of the API. I'd suggest looking at their API in another month or so as an alternate source.

Looks like it's possible (finally something I can do) Lol

Lookup on eve.addicts.nl will be available from next release. Issue
eve.addicts.nl as a price source will have to wait to after next release (as Scrapyard Bob suggested). Issue

The API:
All I'm going to say is that someone wrote something about in the jEveAssets thread on the old forums.
Please, just accept the 6h wait. You'll give the eve servers an unreasonable load!

@Scrapyard Bob
One day in eve:
-Eve-central: API error
-EveMarketeer: Offline

Great news thx a lot, on the api problem, actually no it wont, since i don't need to increase the total number of updates, i simply want to choose when i trigger those. So i still just need around 4 updates a day, but i need those ofc in the 2-6h i actually play the game and setup my stuff.

Thx Andy

Very interesting. I wonder if CCP would allow a daily max limit instead of a hourly cooldown.

Anyway, It's your choice to make how you use the API, not mine...

Is there a option, way that let u combine the same items in different locations, POS modules? Mainly i would like to check my material, component stock in multiple labs/arrays. I can only get a list with all materials per array, but cant combine them to easily check the total stock at a POS location.
I know i can select and right-click, but this is still a hassle, since i need to do this for lots of mats and than write down the results.

So if not present can u add a "group same items" option?

Thx Andy

@Andy DelGardo
1) I don't have a POS so I can not test it myself, sadly...

2) There is no way to join items in location groups. I'm open to discussing use cases. If it offer something new that is not possible with the other tools, I'll surely be willing to add it sooner or later...

3) I'll suggest you use the Stockpile tool for keeping your POS stocked (It's more or less why it was made)
And then use: [Stockpile] > [Shopping List] - instead of writing everything down manually...

Hey,

small suggestion, what about a "always on top" window option? So i can have jAsset open while browsing and shopping the market?

Thx Andy

@Joel Mi
Issue added - It will not be in the next version. But, I expect it to be done soon(tm) after that.

I'll continue to work on jEveAssets as long as good suggestions are posted here Blink

Thank you for your feature suggestion and kind words :)

"Always On Top" is already done - and will be in the next feature release.

It can really take a long time to retrieve prices so I'd appreciate if price updates could have been conducted in the background, instead of blocking the whole client. Currently I have to decide whether to wait (and meanwhile write this post) or cancel before I can interact with the application again.
