Of course, for the mlining alt...
The best thing for what you want will be to wait for the REST API to be available. Then you will be able to modify your contact list through software.

Wait until april.

CREST is CCP implementation of a REST API.

going to attempt to write this myself i guess in C# using Visual Studio 2012 as i have never learned any programming language this will be a challenge and any and all help would be appreciated here is the steps the program will need to perform .


1.Pull Contact API and Location API
2. make sure none of contacts have killed in past 3 months
3.if killed then Open Notification Window if it was a Miner or Industrial ship only
4. if have not Killed a industrial or miner in past 3 months Open Notification Window to adjust in a positive Direction
5. Search and Suggest 1 month worth of kills within 3 jumps of home system
6. 4 months 0 activity suggest Deletion from Contacts List


*Note: it's finding out who did what from crawling thru kill mail sites. Really need a good name for this other then project 1

OP just wants null sec to be risk free and more carebear. Sounds like a goon to me.

Do you honestly think we don't already have such software available?

Aphelion, I am missing some info for what you want to do:

Do you want to manage your contact list (ie changing their standings from your app) so that they ll show in your local?

Or do you want to scan the people in local to look for suspicious activities?


The former is OK but you need to wait for REST beta.

The latter is still OK but you need to input all names to scan manually (pretty much like CVA KOS list website).


Anyhow, you should really think about a good name, that sounds important.

i Was Informed my First step should be to write a program to Parse the XML killboards any idea where to start on something like this?
