createContract Method should accept type ids instead of item ids.

At least let us create buy contract with them. Would make possible of creating some great internal tools! Item id is just too damn slow with 6h asset API caches.

This should be fairly fast to implement. You can even make it new method called createBuyContract and you don't need to worry of making some old systems incompatible.

Sorry, not happening. Unless there is a drastic change there will be no development of the IGB.

What about reducing asset cache to 1 hour?

Damn, I was afraid of that.

Then, how about "copy information"-button to dropdown menu when you have selected item or multiple items? I don't really care what information it would contain as long at it contains item id and type id or type name.

To be actually useful thing for other things than 3rd party tools, it could make asset list link when pasted to chat. You could easily brag that this is how well you prepared for this deployment!


PS. I wouldn't mind shorter API caches also.

Actually, to tell you the truth... I have on my list of things to do to review all cache times for the API. So maybe.
