Multibuy Queries

Hallo

Would anyone happen to know if in-game Multibuy populating via clipboard paste, or text file or similar is scheduled anytime soon ?

Follow on question; launching a populated Multibuy window in-game via out-of-game crest process was rumoured a while back. Don't know if this was a "well, it's theoretically possible" or just "wouldn't it be cool if" or actually "yup, this is coming - just wait longer" ?

Currently the only way I can think to buy a whole lot of random stuff (I shop on behalf of others, for myself, and oft enough to stock several stations with over 900 orders) is via the quickbar - I believe the quickbar can be copied between profiles, which leads to the thinking that it could perhaps be modified out of game with a list of stuff to then Multibuy...:
- Any specific thinking as to whether this will be obviously legal/definitely illegal.
- Is there any existing tool that can do this
- Anyone know what the file format is, or how to go about editing it ?

TIA for any insights

Not exactly what you want but....

if the items are of charge category (ammos, etc) then you can pre-build a disposable fitting in a text editor, copy to clipboard, then use the Fitting Browser's "Import from Clipboard" function and buy all.

Example below:

[Velator, Velator fit]

[Empty Low slot]
[Empty Low slot]
[Empty Low slot]

[Empty Med slot]
[Empty Med slot]

[Empty High slot]
[Empty High slot]


Void S x10000
Scourge Heavy Missile x50000


Sadly, this doesn't work with other market group items.

Thanks - Yeah, while there is a certain charm to the thought of buying an obelisk already fully stocked with trade goods, alas that restriction of ammo etc only.
