nice work - it'll be nice and handy when you have got all the schematics in there.

very similar to foomans tool or what ever it is called.. nice work

Thanks Atham

The tool *does* use the relative caps (was a pain to get that to work correctly too, heh). If you notice that some stats list (say 500 CD on a steel) '500->600cd' --> that means that it 'converts' the CD to what SWG uses, since the gate of CD on steel is 650, it uses that as a base of calculations. If generic steel is required anyway. If a specific resource is required, it will compute the gates for that specific resource. JTL resources are a bit different, but they're taken into account (especially as this was first a shipwright tool). JTL resources that 'pass' the gate are basically calc'd at 100% anyway, so a 750CD crystallized bicorbantium is calc'd at 100% because it surpasses the 650 gate.

I've never had a request to search the history, so I'll have to look into that. I'm not certain if I can query that information for SWGCraft. The current resource list is a fairly easy grab for a script. I'll update what I find out, but it'll be a couple days probably.

Basically, the 'main' use for this tool is to grab all current resources in shift, and then tell you which one is best for certain parts of schematics. For instance, if I wanted to concentrate on Refire rate on my ship weapons, I would select that option from the menu, and the resource listed is the current best resource for that schematic. I thought of saving my own history, but getting that information from SWGCraft (if I can) would be nice.

Thanks for the feedback.

I guess I was thrown off by your scopes, which are using SR instead of OQ. For harving new stuff ya looks pretty slick but if it could compare to the history it would be even better.

i agree with the above poster, some sort of selectable boundary below which you dont even bother showing.

another nice feature would be to dump the history of swgcraft into your database and show each resources compared to the best ever spawn.

the functionality so far is just awesome, a little polishing on the layout and a couple usabilty enhancements and you have the gold standard. i love the simplicity, if you can retain that while adding these simple items youre set!
