I did get an error "moving old database" when trying to do the automatics update, but that doesn’t surprise me given i think my old one was the cause of my problems.

I installed from scratch and have no problems now.


Thanks

New changes:

Build 1.3.4306.29337
* Corrected error when an item with no meta item was selected in the meta drop down menu.
* Removed meta items from manufacturing list if no meta item exists for the item calculated and meta number selected.
* Updated Settings screen to allow easier setting adjustments.
* Default ME/PE settings will now extend to any unowned T1 blueprint in the production chain. i.e. A Jaguar will now use Default ME/PE for the Rifter BP if it is not defined. Before it would set this to 0 if it was not owned.

Thanks Ten Bulls for your help.

Has there been a fix/update for using this on windows 7 64 bit yet? I am eager to test this. Thanks o/

When I try to load enter an API I get told "There was an error in the Key data. Error text: Key has expired. Contact Key owner for access renewal."

I tried creating a new key, made sure the box for no expiry is checked, and the three items listed in the readme file are checked. But I still get this error. Since others seem to be using API keys with no problem I suppose I am doing something incorrectly. Can anyone give me a hint?

I figured it out. As expected, a dumb mistake on my part. I was enterring the access mask in the key ID field instead of the ID.

Great idea. I'll add it to the list. Shouldn't be hard to do.

Great application, one thing Ive noticed that may or may not be a bug is that the production time seems to be either not useful or not calculated correctly.

For example. Building 1 425mm railgun takes 8 minutes. Building 10 takes 1h20minutes. Building 10 on 10 lines still say sit takes 1h 20minutes when it should only take 8.

Loving the application. It is seriously making my calculations much easier. I have a few suggestions though.

#1: Make a industry loadout feature. Something along the lines the way Xell Network 7 does it. You add in a few BPOs to a larger list and you can easily queue it, view industry stats, etc.
#2: Make a default update price list. I usually need to only update half the item types prices, but each time I go to do so, I have to click each specific one. At least add a check all button or user created lists.
#3: I would love to have an order tracking screen. One in which I can maintain what I built each order at, its original selling price, its current selling price and its status. I keep finding myself having to move this data over to my spreadsheets when I would love to just have this in the application.
#4: The CSV export. This needs some major work. Usually it just comes out as one single CSV line when it should be coming out with multiple lines, even when I check the "Export in CSV format"

Otherwise, this is an awesome app and has become my new calculation checker. I especially love the ability to search through your owned BPOs and see which is the most profitable at the time. This feature alone has boosted my profits by double.

Keep up the good work and I hope you add in some of these suggestions.

I guess calling it a batch would be a better way to explain. An example would be.

Create Industry Batch

---

Orca Ship Build Components
-----> Capital Construction Parts
------Cost,Profit,runs,Total Cost,Total Profit
-----> Capital Propulsion Engine
-----Same..

So on and so forth. Essentially, I would like it to be able to create/select a batch order that can be used over and over again.
Once you select the batch order, have it display all the information regarding the batch (Cost/Profit Each, Total Cost/Profit, etc) and then add it to the shopping list.

The Subsystem Group Profitability is meant to show how many of the items in that subsystem group are profitable. So say you look at making subsystems and want to make Tengu Offensive - Accelerated Ejection Bay Blueprint based on its profit. However, to RE this, the game will randomly give you a Tengu Offensive subsystem, but not necessarily this one. So the Subsystem Group profitability shows how many of the four will get you a profit so you don't end up with 6 unprofitable BPC's in your hanger (like me) that you eat the cost on. This way one can target their RE better.

I'm not sure why it's showing 0% unless you have no sell prices for those subsystems or something. The values will be 0%, 25%, 50%, and 100%. My copy is running fine. Let me know if you still have issues.

On your other question, yes the total cost is divided by the number of runs of the bpc (so 3 with RE, 10 with invention for mods, etc) to show the total cost for 1 run of the item.
