i'm sorry, if my question was quite annoying :) but reading 131 pages of the topic is more annoying as for me.
i think, would be fine to stick such questions at the header of thread. some kind of FAQ in the first message. it should help to avoid such situations. or was this discussed several times before too? ;)

You can set the amount of posts per page in your forum settings. I only got 40 pages here ;o)

I keep getting a "Database is locked" error. I run as admin and checked the .db's in the install folder but they aren't 'read only', is there something else it's looking for?

Hey guys,

I'm having issues where BPC is stating that my current location is unknown. It was working just a couple of days ago. Only change was upgrading E:D

Below is my appconfig file. Is there something wrong with it?

<AppConfig>

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks all!

You have an extra </Network> in the file. Try removing it.

So, add it. The data is crowd sourced.

how many minutes have passed since that data was updated. (from the station you're leaving, to the station you're going to)

Slopey - I seem to be running into a problem with duplicated commodities again. Ive been going around sol and updating the stations so i can start doing my runs and some of the stations have fallen off more than 48hrs, i had had to clear my db to get rid of the old Drugs instead of legal drugs and minerals instead of metals so when i redownloaded the db it was missing these stations. So i went to them and updated them so they showed again. when i did that i ended up with two of each commoditiy in the station till i cleared the db and redownloaded it with the new data.

Regarding duplicated commodities. I still have a screen of data of a single station to a single station with 1 commodity. Seems to be the same 7 values in various combinations with another 7 values from the other station. A lot of these have blank times in the from and to fields. So I went into the options page and clicked the option to manually remove data older than 168 hours. I was informed that to do this the blanks need fixing and this would take a while. This was 7 hours ago and it has just passed 418600 and is still going. It would of been nice if it said how many it was out of. I could kill the task but I don't want to kill it if it has almost completed.

UPDATE: Broken 500,000 and has been going nearly 9 hours. What is it doing to the database?

I've had the same thing - it seems that when you enter data it is saved to your local db - when the db is then updated, it adds the data again instead of replacing what you have, thus giving you duplicate data. The only way to get rid of the duplicate seems to be to clear your own db and start again - which is fine until you start entering data again!!

How aged the data is, in minutes for the From and To systems.

Local mode issue

Hi everyone,

I've a problem with local mode :
- auto-update : uncheck
- db clear
- current localtion : detected

but my known systems stay empty.
I jump in few systems, dock in few stations, open/close market in game and i dont know what to do :(

My AppConfig seems ok :
<Network
VerboseLogging="1"
Port="0"
upnpenabled="1"
LogFile="netLog"
DatestampLog="1"
>

can you help me ?

thanks

I decided to try my hand at trading so i downloaded the tool. Is there anyway to tell the tool that i have a ship that needs a large landing pad? I couldn't find an option for that.

Yup - latest version. Also, don't know if you saw my earlier post, but if you add commods using the add commod button on the grid input, it always enters the first figure for all 3 cells, irrespective of what you enter in the others - so all cells end up with the same figure for buy, sell and quantity. Of course you can then edit it before saving the data, but that's only if you notice it!!

Hi there... first of all: Great Tool, Slopey.

Is something wrong with the database? I`m in the Arcurus-System and the BPC Tool dont know the system anymore? (after update 4.2.1.0)

It seems to me that BPC puts the verboselogging in at 2 places - seems somewhat redundant.

The fixes I made to the file are (which now works) -
1. add "/"
2. Remove </network>
3. Remove extra verboselogging

as below (from the <Network to the end of the file.

<Network
VerboseLogging="1"
Port="0"
upnpenabled="1"
LogFile="netLog"
DatestampLog="1"
/>

<GameObjects />
</AppConfig>
