... and so many dev blogs about what will change and be new!
Winter will be a good expansion!


But ... do you have something new for us too, CCP?

* new APIs (PI, POCO, ...) for example
* the USL maybe


Any whishes from your side, 3rd party devs?

A blueprints API.

Or failing that, the ability to export the contents of blueprints/corp blueprints in the Science and Industry window would at least be an acceptable alternative.

You can get blueprint info from AssetList to know where, what, and if they are BPO or not now but something that showed the details of the ME etc would be nice.

Finds camping stations from the inside much easier. Designer of Yapeal for the Eve API. Check out the Yapeal PHP API Library thread.

I'd like to know the name of the winter expansion!

And some kind of localStorage support in the IGB. The localStorage object doesn't exist and the openDatabase() function returns a null.

I would love to see the bookmarks be followed with an api call listing something like "bookmark id","bookmark name","system id",and "x.y.z coordinates"

(I think such an api could supplant the need for adding xyz coordinates to the asset dump.)

With something like that we could make all sorts of maps of wierd places.

I wouldn't consider this game breaking since we cannot manualy re-enter x.y.z
That just my wet api dream...
Only thing I realy want is a weeks headstart with the datadump

Wheras I think the ME/PE should be accessible by another API call. It wouldn't make sense to have ME/PE infos in the asset list. I guess that most of the players don't own/don't use blueprints in any way.

A self-contained call like /char|corp/BlueprintList.xml would be _very_ cool. With infos about itemID, typeID , ME, PE, licensed production runs remaining (-1 = BPO - like in the IndustryJobs).


What I also would like to see/hear from is the market data API info (see dev-blog from August)

A nice addition to the StarbaseDetail API would be to provide a list of the structures tied to the control tower. The list of structures would also include the status of the structure e.g. offline/online/disabled etc. Would make POS managers jobs easier rather than flying to each tower to check.

I know CCP said a while back that this wouldn't be possible, but judging by the recent dev blogs, I can always be optimistic!

SOV Information! Structures, Status, Indexes, IHub Upgrades...
Replacement string listing for all of the notifications would be nice as well.

I would love to see a new WebKIT in the IGB. HTML5 capabilities in my IGB, f**k yeah!
