Release [Explorer's Application] Captain's Log

Hi there

Im having real issues downloading captains log from your site, i get about .5 Mb into the download and get a network failed error. Ive tried chrome, mozilla and even Internet explorer, all adblockers are disabled and even uninstalled. I can download other files but only get this when trying from your site. Any suggestions?

Could be the Wordpress plugin I'm using to serve files (I wanted to be able to have a count of downloads)

I'll look for a different way of serving files (and to be able to count downloads)

In the meantime, can you PM me your email address and I'll email you the installer? It's only about 17MB which nowadays shouldn't be a problem.

Hi,
here I am ... again :)
I found that the "Estimated All System Value" is different from the total of the db.
I have exported the entire db to cvs file, opened the cvs file in excel and, as you can see the totals are different. The number of jumps are right (946)

Hello.... again! ;)

These figures are all estimates so take 'em with a galactic pinch of salt ;)

Can't explain why the CSV figures differ from the in-app figures... unless... okay it may be this;

When I do the initial loading of the database in CL, I keep note of system names that are processed, so that I don't count the same system twice in the stats (don't want to be adding up the values for the same system more than once in the stats, for example).

I don't recall ever adding similar code to the CSV output function, so there's the possibility that the CSV figures are higher due to you having visited the same systems more than one time in your list of jumps, and I'm just blindly adding figures to the total sums.

Sounds plausible anyway - I'll take a look at that once I get the time.

Thanks for bringing this up :)

Hi,

I previously posted a problem with the "Rocky (TC)" button: -

Hi,

Can someone please see if the "Rocky (TC)" is working for them?

Does not seem to work for me.

Thanks & Regards

I still have this problem, but have just noticed that I have the same problem with the "Water Giant" button upon having just discovered one.

Any idea on what I could check to try and get both of these working?

Thanks & Regards
 
Oops! Missed your post!



Very very odd!

Have you been using CL for long? I'm wondering if that's a throwback from when I didn't have Water Giant or Rocky TC in CL's very early versions...

Have you tried to recreate the planet values table? That should create all the database objects. I have no idea why Rocky TC or Water Giant wouldn't be in that table - they're in the code which creates that database.

Procedure:

0) Exit from CL
1) Go to the CL database folder and remove the file called cl_values.db
2) Start CL - the planet values DB should be recreated on startup.

Please let me know if that solves this for you.

Regards.

Try the procedure I outlined in my post that I quoted above.

Hi,

Sorry, I missed your previous reply on what to try.

Many thanks, you'll be glad to know, that worked a charm!

Appreciate it.
 
Hi there!
I have just installed CL. It only says "parsing logs". Is this a normal state? How do things "happen" in CL? I've jumped between systems but nothing appears to happen in CL? How do I know it if it works?

Edit: I've found that I have to select the default DB i configure. Now I see my recent jumps. But how about thoose since dec 20? "Scan all netlogs" does not add thoose.

Edit2: Ok, never mind, I'll guess I did not have "verbose logging" activated....

Hey guys, I did have you older version and wanted to update but every time I do I get this exception error!

Can you steer me in the correct direction to install this on Windows 10, the older version installed with no problems

Thanks guys

Looks like you don't have write permission for the dtabase file?

Or it can't find the DB file?

Try reconfiguring CL by removing the captainslog.cfg file and/or the captainslog.ini file - each lcoated in %LOCALAPPDATA%\CaptainsLog

Hi,

I'll try that indeed, thanks

The previous version worked first time :)

Hi,

That did it, so simple and I have been putting the nogging to work on this as well!!

Thanks

Gerty :)
 
Quick one really, can I import a CSV file, I exported it and want to place it back captains log as I had reset the game due to the changes that FD did?

Hi Genar-Hofoen,

I have a feature request :)
I decided I wanted to look up which systems I had found the ELW's in, to then look at the date stamp for when I found them (basically couldn't remember if they were all in one day or not). I stopped adding notes a while back figuring the app records everything anyway and I had a lot of catch up to do so time is key.
Anyway, it seems the search box is limited to text I've entered, unless I'm missing something? So my feature request is to filter the log for system containing the planet/star type you click on in the statistics tab (there'll need to be a show all/cancel filter option to clear I guess)

Yeah, I've had an idea for such a feature for a while now - just.... time, and burnout, and a wish to play the game for a change ;)

What you can do in the meantime though, is to export your DB to a CSV file - load it up in Excel or LibreOffice Calc, and search/filter for Earth-like World :)
