I found a lot cool features in this program, however I've found using it to be frustrating due to two issues.

T2 bpcs start out with -4 ME and PE, however when I load up a t2 bpc it defaults to ME 0 and PE 0. Selecting a decryptor would reset incorrect values. Also the runs field was incorrect. Putting in (correct) negative values resulted in an error prompt, but the numbers did seem to change accurately as a result, however this would not work at all if a decrypt or was selected. Also, I was checking out a t2 cruiser invention, but the 'materials' section was telling me to buy the t1 ship off the market because it was assuming I was building it from a t1 print, even though the BPO had the correct ME entered in the character blueprint list.

One feature that would make this program the best thing ever would be to make it possible to copy&paste cells from various results windows into an excel spreadsheet. This would address the problem of a user wanting to save the information outside the program. There are a few "copy to clipboard" buttons around, but they don't quite suffice. Most of the calculated fields are unclickable while ones that can be manually entered but preset to various values are clickable. Not being able to copy paste a selection of the price update window was particularly depressing.

If I'm doing it wrong, please let me know. Using v2.2.4751.31950

Thank you for your quick and detailed response.

I don't believe that I have the Scimitar BPO marked as owned. On the Blueprint Management window, if I look at all owned BPO's, the scimitar is not there. All that is there is the t1 BPO (with correct ME/PE) and construction component BPOs. I do have some scimitar BPCs in my assets, however they are in a container and did not appear to be scanned, so IPH doesn't seem to know about them at this time. Back in the blueprint tab of the main program's window, I am able to select 'Scimitar Blueprint' from the "selected blueprint" drop-down menu. I figure this is because I have the t1 BPO marked as owned, and thus can invent scimitars. At this point, the window displays the calculation. Again, despite the scythe BPO having the correct research marked in the Blueprint Management screen, the scythe as it appears in the Component Material List displays with an ME of 0. Also, with no decryptor selected, the blueprint window will default to incorrect numbers. This can be manually 'fixed' but if a decryptor is selected they will return to incorrect values when hitting the refresh button.

As for my other comment, I'll be more specific.

Update Prices Tab - Let's say I load with your program all minerals and moon components prices from jita. I would like to then be able to mass select and copy paste directly into one of my own spreadsheets. Currently the group name field, the item name field are not selectable and copyable. At best, I can only select a single price field from a single row, and to copy it I have to right click -> copy because control+C doesn't work. If I then want to get the buy prices, or the prices from a different hub, I have to start all over again for each thing. The result is that using your program to get usable pricing information is only slightly faster than pulling it out of the in-game browser, instead of being extremely fast.

Blueprints Tab - Right now there is a copy to clipboard button that allows you to extract the Component Material List. There is no corresponding button for the raw material list. Oh wait, I see now there's a radio button. Ok, well that's better.

I want to do a lot of these calculations by myself, or at least save the results to compare multiple things at once. One of the reasons I'm using your program is that it provides a way to access all the Eve data in a rather organized way. Looking up stuff in game or online for things like material lists and market values a real time suck, but its important for making isk. I want your program so I can do that faster. I suppose for my own personally enjoyment a button to clipboard the results of the prices window would be the best thing.

Also for the shopping list, all the data is displayed as a nice spreadsheet. It would be great if items here could be sorted or filtered by groups. If I click "copy list" and try to paste it into a spreadsheet, the quantity is on the same cell as the description. The other cool fields like volume and cost per unit and total cost aren't copied at all. This makes me sad.

Dunno what you did with the last update but when i try to add a new API key it gets stuck and "Not Responding"

"Source: EVE Isk per Hour
Message: Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

Getting this error on Win7 Ultimate x64

Just an update, I cleared and re-scanned my assets for blueprints and it seems to have fixed that problem with invention defaulting to incorrect ME/PE. I still think it was some kind of bug, because before I cleared my blueprints list I definitely didn't have any t2 bpos or bpcs marked as owned. I do know that this problem was being carried over to the manufacturing tab as well.

Thanks!

Try setting the "SVR settings" threshold to 0 and also include items without SVR values. This is the case with me most of the time.

Hello Zifrian!

I think that originally, I didn't explain the actual problem quite well. I'll try again:
I'm now using version 2.2.4755.11754
In the following screenshots, please take special note of the values next to the Refining and Refinery Efficiency skills

1. http://i.imgur.com/iEHnr.png - This one represents the 'base values'.
Attempt: Even this early on, I don't think that the Refining skill's 2% reduction in refinery waste per level bonus - which should actually boost the yield and profits up - is actually being applied to any of ISK Per Hour's mining profit calculations.

2. http://i.imgur.com/r0jfU.png
Attempt: Bumped Refining skill up from level 4 to level 5.
Result: No change in ISK Per Hour values between that and the previous picture.

3. http://i.imgur.com/HRbbG.png
Attempt: In addition to the Refining skill bump that's been done in screenshot #2, I've also bumped here the Refinery Efficiency skill all the way from level 0 up to level 5.
The Refinery Efficiency skill should provide an additional 4% refinery waste reduction per skill level bonus - which again, should actually boost the yield and profits up even more - up to a 100% cap.
Result: No change in ISK Per Hour values between that and the previous two pictures.


Regards,

P.S.
Donated for the third time, absolutely loving this program!

New Build - Fixed two errors mentioned above.

Build 2.2.4757.23645

• Fixed an error that would not correctly load overridden character skills.
• Refining yield will now correctly take into account changes to the Refining and refining Efficiency Skills when changed on the Mining Tab.
• Invention material costs will be correctly displayed when copying to clipboard on the BP Tab.

Any chance of getting a Mac or iOS port of this?

Same issue as above, set the SVR threshold to 0 instead of 1. Maybe I should set that as the default...
