Why? Are you writing one as well?
lol
I ran a system unspecified trade run a couple of hours ago to see what the maximum profit run I could get for my trade iCutter. The answer was about 7.9 million but when I look at which system it was it was way out in Colonia!
Enhancement request. A way to limit the results to within a specified LY distance centred on Sol or some other, well known central system.
--from STATION, -f STATION
Starting system/station.
--start-jumps STARTJUMPS, -s STARTJUMPS
Consider stations within this many jumps of the origin
(requires --from).
Well, I'm just trying trade GUI for the first time. I've figured out how to work it I think. Its currently doing a database update. One improvement I can see immediately would be an indication to show that its actually doing something. I know that there usually a period of visual inactivity when the text output reads "Deleting old listing data" (7 minutes on my update today!). Mark's TD Helper has the timer so maybe something similar would be good. I'll use it over the next few days on a few runs and see if anything else comes to mind.Everyone who has tried out the GUI, do you have any requests? Anything you'd like to see implemented that's not already? I'm already planning on having some sort of saving, I'm just not sure what stuff I want to be able to save, and I'm also planning on implementing something like TDHelper's CMDR Profile button as well, but I'd like some feedback from the user base.
Yeah, an activity indicator would be nice, I'm working on figuring out how I want to do it and whatnot, it's almost definitely going to be one of the last things put in, but I can pretty easily have a "Working..." window pop up as a placeholder until I get that.Well, I'm just trying trade GUI for the first time.

On a different note, the database update doesn't seem to download listings.csv any more. It used to download during the first update of the day but the date-stamp on my listings.csv is 4 days old and the database has been updated on at least 3 of the last 4 days! Is this something I need to be concerned about?
Been all quiet for a month, which probably means the update checker thread is due to bomb again. Think it's worth me (trying to remember to) doing a monthly restart on the server as a general maintenance/admin?
Agreed.Good idea, Tromador. Won’t do any harm having a monthly restart!
