Nice work Juntao 5 stars.
The only beef would be that www.swgcraft.com operate a very similar system so maybe there was someone from www.swgcraft.com having a go?

Is there a way to create a watch list on SWGCraft? I didn't think there was and is why I put this together in the first place, hehe. I am using the SWGCraft data so if SWGCraft already has this functionality then I'm kinda wasting my time =)

Oh i see. No I don't think they do.
Are you using the data directly from their servers or copying it across? They might have some issues with you doing that you know

SWGCraft offers data exports for just this sort of thing: http://www.swgcraft.com/resourceexport.php

I think the resource hounds out there will like this latest addition.
Under profile is a link to a resource subscriptions page.
You can find it here:
Basically what you can do is add resources to a 'watch list' that is easily accessible.
Let's say for example, you want to be able to quickly see what the latest data is on Tatooinian Avian Meat. You would add that as a subscrition and when you view the subscriptions page, you'll see that data.
Now, let's also say you want to watch all Avian Meat across all planets. Just add Avian Meat to your subscription and it will list all data on avian meat across all planets. Take it a step further and you can watch all meats across all planets.
I am also planning to add an opt in/out emailer that will email you data on all your subscriptions once daily.
I think this can be a very handy tool and I might even expand it to include other resources besides creature specific data, but we'll just have to see what kind of demand there is!
Enjoy!

Cross posting this from the BE forum as I think a lot of docs will use this too!

I don't think so. This pretty much lets you create a customized list of resources to have easy access to. Not only that, but I've added in the ability to email you a daily summary of your watched resources as well.
Going to add in triggers next so you can have further control over what you see.

I have added in additional filters to only display resources that you wish to see that meet certain quality and availability requirements! Have a look!
