Engineers Engineering Database And Calculator [Engineers Update]

Stopping by - just thought I'd note that I've proven you can find Todd bounties by interdicting wanted ships, too. (Still no pattern to *which* wanted ships, seems like it doesn't matter what faction it belongs to.)

edit: Also, 37,500 CR bounty after a few hours of nav beacon + interdiction hunting pushed me from Grade 3 21%...to a whopping Grade 3 28%. *headdesk*

At this rate, think I'm going to ignore Todd altogether unless something changes (or Engineers altogether for that matter). If Grade 3 is this slow, getting Grade 5 will be an absolute nightmare.

Despite that, thank you again for making this calculator, it's intensely useful for mitigating the information void, and I hope my posts helps someone down the road.

With the possible exception of the FSD ladies every other engineer i've met has been vastly faster to level via crafting than anything else, its only 3 items per rank which really doesn't take long if you find the easy recipe (usually the integrity/mass one)
 
Figures the patch comes a day after my post lol.

Maybe I will give normal crafting a go...I'll have to try to find a modification that doesn't use up materials I'll want to save for rank 5 goodies, which means more spreadsheet surfing - thank goodness it's all right here, right? :D

Trying to gather Lavian Brandy for Didi. First it spawned 8 then 5, then stopped. Ok, I drove her 12.

Again 8 + 5, then stopped. Got her 12 as well.

Now it's spawned 4. I waited. Another 4. No more. 8.

Is is this normal? Is it supposed to be FUN like that?

I didn't see anything on this in the patch notes...I'll test it tonight to be sure.

Edit: HOLY COW ALL THE BOUNTIES WORK NOW
*ahem* data dump ahead:

Starting with Grade 3 28% access
(oh my god Frontier already fixed it so there's no delay when checking reputation! Huzzah and praise be!)
~54k in Todd bounties:
Grade 3 42% access (unlocked Selene Jean)
~4.5k in Social Wolf 397 Prog Party (or whatever it is):
Grade 3 44% access
~...uh...I forgot to write it down, 15-20k? in Wolf 397 Dominion
Grade 3 47% access
~38k in Blue Fortune
Grade 3 56% access
~238k in Wolf Independents
Grade 4 2% access
~120k(?) (I got excited and forgot to write down the approximate number again in Alliance Bounties
Grade 4 11% access

TL/DR:
All the available bounties to be found in Wolf 397 now qualify for Todd "The Blaster" McQuinn reputation, including Alliance bounties! (I am so giddy about this now)

I keep hearing contradictory statements, it's becoming upsetting.

EDIT: irrelevant because edit above.

EDIT 2: see my answer to the abovementionned edit below.

They just changed it with 2.1.0.3, I just tested it to be totally sure and all the bounties I redeemed with Todd "The Blaster" McQuinn had an immediate and visible effect that I checked after each batch.

Sorry for the continual change to information! Billy Idol comes to mind with "Spin me right round, baby, right round..."

edit: and see my prior post, I edited the info in rather than putting it into a new post, silly of me in retrospect....

So I can post a new post and say I ackowledged your edit, which makes my post irrelevant, forcing me to edit it as well. :D :D :D Good job, I'll update the doc soon.

Edit: Kudos for Billy Idol

Only from Wolf 397 or from anywhere ?

Well I only tested Wolf 397 bounty vouchers....
Things to keep in mind:
- Some of the Wolf 397 factions exist in some of the nearby systems
- Imperial/Federation bounty bouchers still Do Not Qualify

If anyone's willing to test bounties from other jurisdictions, please do and share the info. I happened to reach my goal of Master combat rank, sold my FAS and skitted away to do something else for a while though.
 
Something to fix:

Selene Jean's modification, called "Heavy Duty Armor" is shown on Inara, with all affected stats, except Mass. It needs to be fixed, because Heavy Duty Armor significantly increases armor weight.

Care to share a screenshot? Because on mine, on every grade Mass stays at 0. Could be a glitch, cause displaying the stat in then useless...
