Ya know, maybe we should all try to compile a FULL list of all commodities so we can make the data file as current as we can. If anyone wants to share a more complete commodity list data file, I'll be glad to drop it in as the "default". I also full believe we don't even know all the commodities yet

Hey ArchV1
I'll do that
This is surprisingly useful tool for people who like to stick in the same neighbourhood.
Need some input from the users!
I want to add more station features (government, economy, black market, etc). But I'm running out of room and really don't want to expand the footprint anymore. Would it be a disaster to get rid of the Notes Preview area entirely instead you'd have to hit the notes button to see the notes? That space at the bottom can be useful for a few combo boxes for those fore mentioned station features. I'm going to get rid of the Help section as well, but it just didn't seem right to move the notes preview all the way over to that side.
Thoughts?

Hrm I could just make the button be the context... if you have notes, it will be "Edit Notes" if you don't it could be "Add Notes"?
Bit late since you've already released V1.3 but it's no disaster for me. I don't have a single "note" personally.
Re your previous message, I'll be happy to share my commodity list as I think it was complete as of Gamma 2.05... just let me buzz around in V1.0 for a while to make sure they didn't add anything else.
[edit] Since we're not released yet and still on gamma I changed my mind, will upload it now. Don't think it's gonna change much tomorrow anyway. Check your priv msgs for a download link to my file Arch
[another edit] Hey Arch, any chance next version to include a "black market" entry in the "need/have" search list, so it'll bring up a list of stations with black markets? You could even include "need/have govt type/faction type" too. Prob no need for "need/have economy type" since that's all about commodities and that's already covered. Also, you missed "Tourism" in Economy Types.

FYI Commanders! If you already have been using V1.2 of Arch's Cmdr's log and want to use V1.3 but keep your previous data, simply extract the downloaded .zip file to a new folder (eg: Cmdr's Log V1.3) then copy the file "system_data.txt" from the installation folder of the old version to the new location. You may then safely delete the folder for the old version.
Remember if you've made any changes to the default "commodity_data.txt" file to copy that across too before deleting.
If you're unsure of how to do that please feel free to contact me either in here or by priv msg and I'll help where I can.
