Hi,

I have developed another blueprint calculator.

It has features that I expect to be interesting for others like:
- estimate the profit per hour
- compare several items
- find automatically the best decriptors for T2/T3 items
- take your running jobs and your stock into account to list what you need to buy

The tool is accessible through a web interface at http://www.etoiles-industries.org/

Of course, I am looking for beta testers and any feedback would be appreciated.

Hi,

This tool looks to have some good potential; UI is a bit rough around the edges, some processes not quite intuitive.. but obviously a fair amount of time and effort has gone into it, and although it fits into the 'another eve industry tool' category - some of the wheel re-invention you have done is interesting Big smile

I was looking for something fitting the bill of 'find automatically the best decriptors for T2/T3 items' -> I'm somewhat lazy with managing my BPO->Copy->Invention[Decryptor(?)]->Profit? calculations so indeed was rummaging around looking for something that would give me a very basic summary of estimated cost and profit for a {run} of Inventions using each type of decryptor... i.e so I could just pick the one from the top of the list (or use something towards the top of the list if I had spares lying around)
- Couldn't find a way to actually do this using your tool, at least without selecting a invention job and then selecting each decryptor type one at a time and then looking at the profit section... Would be awesome if you could build a per-decryptor-summary into your compare function

- Also suggest moving the Profit section up to the top of the screen - I've got a a decently high-res monitor, and switching between build strategies and decryptors requires scrolling beneath the bottom of the page to get the build cost/profit calculations, to then scroll back to the top to then change to the next strategy.. to then scroll to the bottom again to see what effect the change had.

Anyhoo - your tool has all the makings of a simplified (less complicated/less intimidating) web version of IPH - so good luck with the project, I'm keen to keep an eye on it.

Cheers
