I have to agree that the instructions are very helpful!!! I read through them today and I'm very impressed. I still need to play around with the sheet a bit. But I love it.


One question though....I noticed you have a Factories Expense but no Harvester Expense (other than relocation). Do you normally just lump their maint into Factories?

I'm still lovin this spreadsheet. Now all I want for Christmas is a tab or two for inventory and sales tracking (just how many Black Uniform Boots DID I make and sell last month? What was my profit?)



Excellent work on this again. More kudos for you!

Excellent job!


I love spreadsheets. It helps to educate those new to the profession who just dont really know what to charge.


If I may request a couple things?


Can you format the Prices sheet to be printer-friendly? Tabbing out of the game is a hassle if I need just one price and having a 1 or 2 page printout woudl be great.


The ability to clear an order (sorry if its there, I didn't see it) after I'm done.


A text-friendly page that shows the order info. You can use the Windows clipboard in-game (Controls-Keymap under the chat tab is a paste & cut binding) so copying some text in WIndows and pasting it into a Galaxies email would be awesome!




Great Job!

Jedi will never be a starting profession...Looted items and quest items will never be better then crafted items, this is not a loot based game...CH will return shortly...CH and BE will not be back in game...Rangers are getting their revamp next!...The stealth system will not be changing in the spy expertise...Need any more examples of things the devs said that did not hold true?

Akkori, to get a printout version of the prices page, here's what I did:


I selected all the cells in the prices sheet and copied them (ctrl+c). Then I opened up Word and pasted (ctrl+p). That created a table in Word that had my price sheet. Under the Format menu, there's an option for Columns. I made my document havetwo columns. Then you can play with the font and text size to shrink the page length. I wound up with 2 1/2 pages. If I'd shrunk the text size a little more, played with the table borders, and made itthree columns per page instead of two, I probably could have gotten it down to 2 pages. But I was partly being lazy and partly trying to save my eyes from tiny fonts.


It took maybe 5 minutes to do this. It's probably easier for each of us to do this than for Ayane to make some kind of print friendly price page, because making printer-friendly pages in Excel seems like a real pain. Then again, I don't know Excel very well, so this is from my limited experience.
