I JUST put this together tonight, so it has no design quality to it at all, it's straight and to the point (I'm going to flash it up later). I believe I've gotten all the data from our components and droids entered into my database, but if you see something missing, let me know.

Tomorrow, while making it more presentable, I'm also going to add in the ability to select which modules and armor, etc are on the finished droid before you calculate cost and profit ratio. It should work well for everyone as the costs and profit % are set by you. It's just a tool so you can see where you are in relation to where you want to be, and to help keep all your prices constant.

Whenever we get new droids or parts, or things change, I'll update the site ASAP with the new/updated information.

Let me know if it's useful to you at all please.

I couldn't take it, I've added in the ability to select modules, armor and personality chips for the droids. Later I'll limit the selection to what can actually go into the droid, that way it is more exact

Cool, I did something like this for my customers - pretty much based on suggestions I've seen here in regards to prices.

Very nice Javac, mine is more something to work in conjunction with that. It's just set up to allow you to calculate your cost/droid crafting it (pure resources only, no additions for time or what-have-you) and then to determine your profit margin, etc.

This was slipping down the pag so i will give jonas some love as this is excellent

I have stuck if on favorites to go with what i got from Javac.

the only problem I have is working out the average cost per resource

Additionally, if you think of something that is missing that would make this more useful, just let me know -- I love scripting and programming so it's not a bother.

Perhaps a good update would be to include G&A costs as a separate line item (maintenance on harvesters, factories, shops, etc.) and labor into your COGS (because your time is worth something).

the site only works if you pay for resorces.

Yeah, I'll have to take a look at your site and see how some of mine compare. I know that some of my prices are bound to be higher or lower comparitively because I try to take into account the time to create the items, especially with subcomponents. Doing an R5 takes a lot less time than an R4 Advanced for example.

Resources still cost credits if you mine them. And if you are just being handed resources for free without having to expend ANY credits....tell me what server you're on and I want to come join your PA

Good idea, and cool site. But there seems to be at least one oversight. In the game, the Advanced R2 allows 3 clusters, not just one - that is 9 modules, rather than 5.

Think you could add factory upkeep? Making advanced brains requires two factory runs if you're hand-making them.

Also, you might want to add the ability to take the harvester type, the resource concentration, and tell a "cost-per-unit" for harvested resources.

Check the deed again The Advanced R2 allows for1 cluster and 2 modules, not 3 clusters.
