Hello all.

I don't know where to put this thread, so il put it here. I have this idea for an app i want to make, but i don't know if its possible at all.

The features i want to implement is:

- When you pick up a mission i want to have a button that retrives your active missions using the eve API.

- Tells you info on this missions. ( recommended damage types, recommended resistances, triggers etc) Same info as eve survival

This is the first i want to implement. The thing is that i don't know if this is possible with the API today, to get info on missions. Like eve survival i want this to be able to tell you everything about the mission you are running, but faster. I want to make it so that you get all the info without having to navigate to the mission you are on manualy. This is aimed at the more casual eve player ( like my self ) and to streamline the mission running proces.

And after this is complete ( if its possible to start with ) i want to expend the app to move twards a more complete eve app. ( fiiting section, skill q's, etc etc )

And ofc i am open to suggestions from the community on this project.

Can't be done, as missions aren't part of the API.

It's a nice idea - however you'll need to convince some of the team that cover the UI, API and/or IGB to add some relevent functionality. It's quite small reason for the work so it's unlikely to happen sadly.
