Wow that shopping panel is awesome.
Wow that shopping panel is awesome.
Can it be, that you don't using the latest update? The 'hide Waypoint panel' bug was fixed in V1.6.3.1.
ah my bad i grabbed the main file not the update as well lol... also thanks for keeping this amazing tool going
Excellent work on the shopping panel, that is going to be enormously helpful.
Thanks for all your hard work. I will be getting a donation out.
A few minor things I hope you might be able to add at some point.
1) On the log-in screen where it shows your Ranks for Combat, Trade, etc... In addition to the name of the rank could it show a number as well. Say like Combat Rank - #. Where # is the rank number. So if you were Harmless it would be Combat Rank - 1, or Combat Rank (1), or maybe for Harmless it would be Combat Rank - 9 (if you go in reverse and the lower rank numbers are better, so Elite would be rank 1, maybe that makes more sense, I don't know).
I should probably know what position the rank names are, but outside of knowing there are 9 ranks and the names of the first couple and last couple of ranks I'm never quite sure what place I'm in and have to look it up.
2) On the Summary panel. Could you include the Population size in the Star System Summary section. I've been playing the background simulation, trying to affect influence in the systems and population size is important to know how easy or hard that will be. And I imagine population size is important for other aspects of the game as well.
3) On the Summary Panel, can you color certain information to make it easier to read. So where it says like 4 Space Installations, 2 Planet Installations, 1 Unregistered Installations, etc.. and the text is all white, can you make the number part colored while the rest of the text remains white. Say in the above example the 4 and 2 would be green, yellow or light blue, and for unregistered Installations the 1 is bright red.
On the Inner System Locations, perhaps color the date portion (11/11/3303) of the Last Updated, Last Visited. If you wanted to get even fancier , maybe the date is green if the visit was within the last week, yellow if it was within the last couple weeks, and red if it was longer. Or whatever time frames seem appropriate.
Just some ideas. Thanks!

Hi Fox,
thanks for your input.
1. Good idea, will add the rank id to the launcher and Personal panel.
2-4. Did you tried the new summary, which contains all you suggestions (beside the fancy coloring
).

Thanks Eventure,
Didn't know that information was on the new summary. I use the older summary view, which I prefer since I can get all the information up front without having to click. But also there is a display issue (for me at least) on the new summary panel. When I click on the respective sections, the information panel which appears cuts off everything on the right hand side of the panel.
So I'll see like Star Class, Visits, Allegiance, Government, Economy, etc... on the left of the panel, but none of the values for those things on the right. I tried adjusting the panel and font size but it didn't help.

Thanks for the info, seems to be an issue with the sizing for the panel, will check it. What is your desktop resolution?
@You don't have to click onto a picture to get the info, hovering is enough.

I use my monitor's native resolution which is 2560 x 1440
Oh yeah, I guess I just automatically clicked on them without realizing I didn't need to.

Maybe you can make a screenshot of the issue?
@Did you have changed the summary panel in size? If so, to what value?
Last edited:
I currently have Panel Size 126. Font Size 80.
Though I believe I changed those for the older summary view.
Making the panel bigger and the font smaller does not seem to have any effect on this problem I have with the New summary view.

Thanks, found the issue and it will be fixed with the next version.
Eventure,
I have an idea, and I wonder if you could implement something like it.
I understand that during exploration, you get planet data thats scanned from the Journal file, but from what I can tell there is no information as to the credit value of the scan being performed.
There is information out there, that there is an approximation of value in some pictures I've seen typically this one https://i.imgur.com/3x5JrAK.jpg
Woiuld you be willing to put out that approximation of value for these different star types scanned, and if possible an approximate value for the system itself.
Thanks.

Okay, but after checking the table, there are two types, that are not listed:
"Helium gas giant" and "Water giant with life". Did they share the same values as "Helium rich gas giant" and "Water giant"?
What category fits "Rocky icy body"? To rocky or icy category?
TCE holds also more star types as the table, like:
NEBULA
STELLAR REMNANT NEBULA
MS
EXOTIC STAR
ROGUE PLANET
Anyone have values for these types?

"Helium gas giant" and "Water giant with life", I guess will have a look for some in the database, failing that, wait until someone scans one and passes on the data.
"Rocky icy body"? To rocky or icy category?, Personally, I would go wih the Primary value of Rocky, as it's naturally heavier.
As for the other star types, will look and get back to you.
Thanks for you assistance and looking into it.
All of that information is contained withing EDDiscovery and if you're exploring you REALLY should use this tool

Hi Eventure
Great update - just testing now.
I've noticed that the market update is not working either when set to auto connect or trying manually. No error messages showing and I was having no problems in 1.6.3.6 (other than the visit update which now appears to be resolved).
