Hi everyone,
I came back to Elite recently after a couple years hiatus and found out about the Engineers. While the concept is fun, I found it very painful to keep track of my progress for specific blueprints I wanted. I tried several techniques ; popular websites, excel sheet, you name it. But I got fed up and decided to come up with my own solution, and thought I'd share!
Say hi to EDEngineer Configure your shortcut (or use the default ctrl+F10), run the game in borderless, and you're good to go. Installer here.
I'm using the game's logs to automatically track your cargo (as well as materials and data) when you acquire them, use them or discard them. Please take some time to read the project's mainpage to know more about it.
It works fine for me, but I found a few odd log entries that referred to items without being recognizable. I tried to fix as much as I could find but maybe I missed some (I don't have every material and data in the game to test) so you might encounter some error messages (something like "unknown material" or something) in which case I'd be super happy to fix it (you just have to let me know).
If your app doesn't start, please open an issue in GitHub with a zip archive of your log folder (generally located in C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Saved Games\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous)
Looking forward to your hear about feedback/pullrequests/issues,
Hg

PS: while I do hangout on these forums, the best way to reach is to post issues/feature requests on GitHub. Keep in mind I want to keep the application simple and compact without too much noise
