Hello,

I wrote another blog post on using ruby scripts to make the life of an industrialist a little easier. The first was on reading the static dump, the second on getting market prices. This one is about using those two things to figure out the build cost, required materials, and profit margin for any buildable item. Would love some feedback!

It looks good, one quick note. It looks like some of your calculations are wrong:-

100 Warp Scrambler I - per unit: 119,998.50 ISK - total: 1,199,985,000.00 ISK

Should read

100 Warp Scrambler I - per unit: 119,998.50 ISK - total: 11,999,850.00 ISK

Otherwise it is a nice tutorial.

Goodness - thanks very much for pointing that out! The "money" gem expects values in cents. That particular value was getting the "* 100" applied twice. Fixed now, thanks again.
