Ships & Modules

A graph showing capacitor use depending on which items are active might be useful.....
Still loving the tool though :)

Im getting an error when I run it - OS X 10.5.8:

pyfa error:

pyfa error

Any ideas? I downloaded, extracted pyfa from the archive, ran it, and got that error.

Wow, super sexy compared to EFT. I better try it out pronto!

I really have no idea why then. We're using eveapi library by Entity which is proven to be reliable (aside from recent proxy bug). We've updated it in development release, so if it won't work in next release - please let us know.

And OS you're using is?


No ideas at all. Currently we don't have anybody with Mac in our team. Previously we had couple of happy mac users hanging around our IRC channel, who helped us alot with mac testing, suggestions, etc - but they're not anymore. That is, mac version is completely untested and unsupported, and released as-is. Anybody who can help us with testing on Mac platform is welcome.

I'll probably put note in 1st post that mac platform isn't officially supported.

Purely UI questions, i'll pass them to Darriele.

As for the sorting - items are sorted by group -> base item (variation group) -> name. I agree that name can be replaced by meta level though.

Reason for making it modal lie within calculation engine (any change triggers full fit recalculation, which noticeably slows interface). We're in starting point of overhauling pyfa's backend, one of major improvements will be partial (that is, fast) fit recalculations, which would allow pyfa to get rid of such modality.

question..

does pyfa has something like EFT has...boost from other chars/ship/fit

so in EFT its easy to load my orca mining booster + orca fit and will show the numbers from those boost on the other char.

i cant find this in pyfa?

if thats now in pyfa i like this to become a request to add it :D

Great app, I really like it.
I have some suggestions to improve it:

- Damage graph doesn't take target painters into account... don't know if it should or even if this is possible...?

- It'd be really nice to have a combo box with most common ship setups in the Graph window, so we can switch between different ship types easily and don't have to type the same numbers every time (signature, angle, velocity...)

- Auto-adding all open fits (all tabs) to the damage graph window would be nice. I saw an open ticket for this already.

- Default filetype for importing should be XML. At least under Windows shows CFG and I have to manually select XML.

- It shouldn't import duplicates (adding an internal fit ID, ie like a hash, would help)

- IMO implants should be completely separated from fits, and also from the player. We should be able to associate them with a fit, but they should not be part of that fit. Not cool having to manually recreate the same implants on most fits...

- It'd be nice to be able to configure the data directory. I'd like to put it in a shared folder just like I did with EFT.

And finally, thanks for taking the time to make this app :)

Wow now that's a pretty cool app. Really well done!


Only for some reason i can't update characters via the API.

I can get the character list, but when i select a character and click "Fetch Skills" nothing happens and all skills are still "Not learned".

I'm using Windows 7, no proxy and it's not my firewall as if i turn that on it just says "Unable to fetch characters list from EVE API!".

Any ideas?

Do you have the correct version? I had trouble at first getting it to fetch my API. Then I figured out I had somehow managed to download an older version. I'd double check if you have 1.0.4 rq.

I have installed pyfa and instantly decided that it has the potential to wipe away EFT. I feel that the Charackter editor also in pyfa leads a miserable existence as it is hidden in a submenu. I feel the char editor is relativly frequently used especially in OOG tools to check effects of skills. So I wonder whether it was not added as an additional tab next to ship browser tab.

Kind regards,

2 cts question here:

How to do: change skills lvl for "x" char and see the influence of this change on the current fitting.

Maybe I'm too lazy to find it or maybe it's just simple than I thought but I'm stuck with this (It's quite easy under EFT and almost sure we can do it also with Pyfa)

Thx for your reply
