You're the second person to ask for a dark theme! I told the first person that I should be able to add it, then promptly forgot about it completely.
Stick it in alongside the other "near future" functionality.

Works perfetcly, thanks! The simultaneously autoscanned Shepherd Moons from a few posts also show correctly now. I assume the "Read Logs" and the "Monitoring" handle the logs the same way, but I'll keep an eye out for EO handling this 'live'.
Oh, yes, please!
Awesome, this keeps getting better and better!
As an aside, I think this version is occasionally crashing or something. I've been leaving it running, and sometime later I discover it's not there anymore. I usually notice before starting my next play session, so I'm not sure if it's dying during play or sometime after I've shut down the game and walked away.
I'm just in the habit of keeping everything running all the time so I don't forget. (alongside EDDiscovery and EDMC currently).

It was doing that in previous versions sometimes, I didn't worry about it much since it's still a work in progress, so it's not new to this version.
Hello,
Might I say that this app is giving me some nice information, well done, keep up the good work.
The need for a dark theme is on my list of want's too, I would like for this to use the Black/IOrange theme as it would sit quite nice with other apps using the base game colour scheme.
I would like to understand the lines :-
2019-10-04 17:40:41 - Synookie AV-G d10-1 AB 1 a a - Landable - Multiple criteria met - 2 Criteria Satisfied
I understand the info, but would like for elaboration, to understand what criteria.
Nuele HD-V c5-0 A 4 - Uninteresting
Now I understand the system name here and Body A4, now A4 is far from uninteresting, it's terraformable (THMC)
Are you planning to give 'Terraformables' a mention. Most explorers will want to scan every terraformable for credits at least.

Might have found something:
2019-09-29 15:45:40 - Synookie ZJ-R d4-4 B 3 - Landable - 5 out of 6 jumponium materials - Missing material: yttrium
This is a working theory
This system is the same but missing Arsenic:
Nuele MJ-T c6-0 A 2 - Uninteresting
However 8 materials make up Jumponium, for Basic, Standard and Premium:
Are you able to check yourself and confirm please.

Well, "something is happening" will probably be pretty difficult to track down.
Is it monitoring while you're away? I'll see what I can do to replicate. And you say previous versions stayed running just fine?
Yeah I know there's not much to go on here. I'll try to pay more attention to when it disappears and see if I can pin it down. I didn't have any problems with the previous versions myself. I only started seeing it with the latest. I left it in active monitoring after a full log scan, yes.
I'll have to pay more attention and see. I've usually noticed the next day, which is pretty useless information of course.
EDIT: I'll bet it's crashing on the text to speech. I've been running it and didn't hear it say anything these last few days. However, after a full log scan, it found a few things to alert on from these days.

It's a bit unpredictable, because normally I don't realise it's shut down until I notice something that should have triggered a warning. The other day it appeared to shut down between sessions when I exited to the main menu, and yesterday it stayed running for the entire session. There's never any warning or error message popping up or showing, just the program no longer being there, I will try to keep an eye in it and see if it is anything repeatable.
The "multiple criteria" is just there to draw attention to the preceding lines. In that case the two criteria in question will be the two lines immediately prior. If you feel that is unnecessary you can disable it in settings.
As for terraformable being interesting, my initial line of thinking with the built in criteria wasn't "what's worth money", but rather "what might be interesting enough to make sightseeing worthwhile". Since terraformable planets are not, on the whole, more interesting to look at than any other, I did not include just terraformable as a default criteria. That said, it's simple enough to add as a custom criteria. I can provide an xml snippet for it if you have trouble.
According to EDSM Nuele MJ-T c6-0 A 2 is not landable. Why does it matter if there are FSD synth materials there?
As for the rest, to be blunt, I could not possibly care less about non-premium FSD boosts, therefore they are not considered. The materials for non-premium boosts are ample, and not noteworthy.
Oh, interesting. I didn't have TTS enabled when I left mine running. I'll try that and see if it makes a difference.
The lack of any error is definitely strange. I might put an option for extra debug logging in the next build to see if someone can catch it in the act.
Had a landable terraformable yesterday, that was a surprise.
