Ships & Modules

Ah wait i see there is a command line option to set the 'savedata' directory - would this sort it for me? Might give it a go in a sec. Only trouble is the Dropbox on my one PC is in a different user folder than the other. Ill look if I can use a variable.

UPDATE - I guess C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Dropbox\INST\PyfaData or similar would do this, so -

1 - Install Pyfa normally
2 - Set the command line switch DB location via -s to the above link on both machines and it will switch to the same database on my dropbox (long as syncing is finished).

Would this get me up and running?

Gonna wait for the point release before I try this again methinks lol

I'm sorry if this was answered already. I tried to skim through the thread and didn't see it.

Is there a way to change the order that your characters are listed in the drop-down list? I'd be all right even if I had to root around in a text file somewhere if that's what it takes.

It is currently alphabetical, and there is no easy way to change this. I feel that having this as a setting is a little over the top as most folks would probably want to have it ordered the way it is.

May I ask which order you are wanting, or why you have need of this particular thing? As a workaround for your situation, you can always rename the characters and add a number in the sort order you want. =/



Sounds like the original issue was that the database was being synced while in use or something. Unfortunately I don't knolw of a good way to handle that specifically, but we've had folks in the past, myself included, use pyfa with a syncing service without much problem. Could have been just a fluke. However, as to your second inquery about changing the saveddata paths, check out this: https://github.com/pyfa-org/Pyfa/wiki/Cross-Platform-Data-Sharing

There is also the -r option, which causes pyfa to save in it's root folder (where it is installed). Handy if you want to store pyfa itself in Dropbox and keep the user directory with it.




Hi there, the error has been fixed and a new point release is in the process of being packaged up, will release tonight. As to the price concern, I sort of agree. It's been a long asked-for feature to include implants and boosters in the total price of a fit, but your situation makes total sense as well.

I've opened up an issue here to discuss possible ways to improve on this, would love to get your feedback on the issue itself if you could :) https://github.com/pyfa-org/Pyfa/issues/1158

That's really weird. I actually do want it to be alphabetical, but right now, it follows the order that I entered the characters in: http://puu.sh/vNiOU/fb7d8055f9.png

If the first letters are hard to read, they go A, A, W, A, A, A, S, S, T, S, M, A, S, A.

Four of those "A's" are "Alpha - Amarr", "Alpha - Minmatar", and for all four races (third through fifth "A", and the very last "A" after I had to delete and re-make the Alpha skillplan), and three other "A's" are "All 0" (very first one), "All 5" (very second one), and "All 4" (second to last one).

There's arguments both ways.

Ammo and drones are just as disposable as drugs, so should we count those? Or as one person told me: "I build my own ships, so the price should just show the module cost".

It'd be fairly easy to not include the price of certain things in the total, but the amount of variations starts to make it quite complex, quite quickly.

Probably a good compromise would be to take the minimal version of price and not include anything other than modules and hull (so nothing "below the line" so to speak). It wouldn't cover every scenario, but should cover most.

Hello! I've got a user question:


Often I load a fit and I see that my power grid is 102-103%, sometimes higher and sometimes lower. To try and figure out what the problem is I end up manually increasing all the various skills that I think might fix my power grid problem.

Does pyfa offer a more direct way to evaluate what skills need to be improved to solve a specific problem like a 103% power grid? Sometimes I just cannot figure out what skills are low and I end up having to change out modules to get the fit under 100%. Also, these are the alliance fits so I know they are rock solid. I'm not just dreaming up some crazy fit on my own! These fits are always balanced with skills at "all 5".

Thanks,

BSTheo

Hi

I tried to replace a EE-601 implant with another and was unable to remove the EE-601 implant. I got this error message:

Would appriciate a fix for tis bug.

clicking the "Save" button in the Character Editor gives me this error message:

That's odd. Can you email me your saveddata.db file to sable.blitzmann@gmail.com? It's found in %userprofile%/.pyfa

In the meantime, I'll double check that there actually is sorting being applied to it lol

Hi,

Tried to replace one module with another using drag&drop and got this:

OS version: Darwin-16.4.0-x86_64-i386-64bit

EXCEPTION: 'decimal' codec can't encode character u'\u9f00' in position 5: invalid decimal Unicode string

Would really appreciate a fix for tis bug.
