Abandoned New Trading Tool: ETN

Is there any way to weight the route to use stations owned by a preferred major faction?
For example I will stop at a non-empire station if that is all that is available, but given the choice will stop at the one where they are my ally.
Is this for powerplay or general allegiance? Currently the only weights I use are time and profit. I've considered adding the ability to restrict trades to certain powers or uncontrolled territory. Is that along the lines of what you are looking for?
 
Note: If they are not in sync well then its a completely different story as we need a flag to distinguish from what version of ED the data is coming. So that trading tools like ETN can isolate data and have a XBone data version and Mac/PC data version.

That's essentially what I was thinking of. If the trade data doesn't line up we would either need separate EDDN relays, some sort of flag as you suggest, or perhaps both.
 
I just added support for importing ship data from Coriolis.io. Big props go to that site's author (Colin) for being really responsive and adding nice JSON export support.

Give it a try and let me know if you see any issues.
 
The credits per hour are a bit off if you need to use a few jumps to get back to the starting system. Can you update it to do loop routes including best goods for the back haul, and new overall profit /hr?

Try setting your source as destination also. That will compute complete roots.
 
Just finished my first trip with this tool. Works great, wonderful graphic display of routes. Thanks very much. However, the tool lets you trade in goods that are illicit in a system as long as they are not illicit at the outpost where you are taking them. So remember to switch off "report crimes against me". Otherwise if you get interdicted the cops will show up to help you (and you don't want them to scan you!)

This contribution to the ED universe is excellent. Not only for its functionality but its style too. Thank you so much.

Currently you need to manually filter out illegal trades by restricting the commodities in the trade menu. However I'm working on automatic filtering and it will take into account trades that are illegal in system as well as in station (with control over each).
 
How smooth... very very nice web app. +Rep to the author. Will try to plan some route and check it out, but for now, the appearance is simply awesome.

By major faction (Empire, Fed, Alliance- by station) and power play faction by system.
 
I haven't used this tool since it initially came out doe sit no longer give you bad stops?

Occasionally it would send you to a stop that would result in a loss.
 
Never ran into a loss but I tend to trade in known areas. I would love a search that would let me trade just in Hudson space.

I added filtering to EDDN data, and since then I haven't heard any reports of bad data or trade losses.
