I searched around and couldn't find anything that could help me monitor the Corporations POS offline and make my life easier. So I took the opportunity to create a tool (spreadsheet) in Excel by myself. (Don't expect too much cause I'm no programmer)
It has EVE API requirements as it uses data from the EVE API Server. It only works if you are the CEO or you have Director rights in your Corporation.
It's desinged to: - Access all your Characters in your account. - Access up to 6 POS. (it currently works fine with one as I couldn't test it with more) - Show the location of your POS. (due to limit DB only the Solar System is shown, if anyone has a DB with MoonID feel free to contact me) - Calculate the remaining time your POS has fuel to run. - Inform you when the next Fuel Update is available.
POS Fuel Offline Monitor v1.0
Give it a try and let me know what you think. (Plz post here if you find any bug or like to suggest new features)

The moons are groupID 8.

You might look at POS-tracker think it has all the functions you need and has been around for a few years now  -- Finds camping stations from the inside much easier. Designer of Yapeal for Eve API.

Edited by: Desmont McCallock on 25/04/2009 20:03:32 Well, I've seen POS-tracker. The thing with it, is that you have to set up a PHP & SQL. I admit that my version doesn't give you the opportunity to track more then one at a time but you can create multiple files for all the POS you have. It's just a simple tool for simple use.

Go here and download one of the versions of the dump that you can use, and look for that file.

If I got this right, the file you propose has to be imported to a SQL DB. This is something that can't do (tried ones with no luck, always got a message that the file I was trying to import was too big or something like that). Can anyone provide me with a list of moonID and the name of the moon the ID response to (would be great if it was in a speadsheet).

Fubar, thanx a lot for helping out, man, but your version has to be an old one as it contains Uncharted Planets. I found an Apocrypha version of mapDenormalize and sorting moons out as we speak.
Thanx again.

As you might have figured out, I've spend my whole day learning how to:
- Install !!!SUCCESSFULLY!!! MS SQL Server 2008 Express (believe me it wasn't easy). - Importing the EVE Apocrypha datadump. - Query the DB for the results I was looking for.
As you see, I made it and released a new version that contains the MoonID DB.
Well as some say "Knowledge is Power".

Well, the fact that I don't have any feedback from you is troubling me. These means that either my tool sucks or it's working perfectly (which isn't cause I myself found a lot of bugs).
The ppl who have already download it, why don't you drop me a line. (I'm open to negative opinions too, you know).

I've been trying to get the latest 3.1 version to work with Excel 2007, but I'm getting an error after re-updating after selecting a POS 1 - 6 (any POS generates the error - I have at total of 7 associated with my Director account). The error is "Subscript out of range". Reading the comments is also difficult since it appears the worksheet is recalculating every second. Can't seem to view any of the VBA code or formulas to troubleshoot either. I'm looking for a simple Excel POS Fuel interface, but this is too complicated at this point. I've successfully used the Excel 2007 XML Data Mapping to manually map my 7 POS and will pursue my own lookups I guess. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks! Zeno- |

I was expecting something like this to happen if anyone tried to monitor more then 6 POS. I will rewrite the code to give the ability to monitor the POS's no matter how many you have. I expect this to be ready in a couple of days.
Thanks for the feedback Zeno. |

Excellent! Thanks for version 3.2 The only suggestion right off would be to only recalculate EVE Time once a minute since it makes reading the comments and trying to copy/paste difficult. I personally don't care about seconds resolution in this application. Lastly, on my sheet view the "Next POS Fuel Update Available In:" field is filled with ######## because the cell width is too small for the value. Other than that it's a Hit Take care, Zeno |

You can see the comments (if you use Excel 2007) by going to the Tab "Review" and click on the "Show/Hide Comment" selection or even better the "Show All Comments" selection.
I looked into the copy/paste issue. The only thing I can imagine you would like to copy/paste would be the "CPU - PowerGrid" values. I could fix it for you but then you would mess the color format of the cells. So I deliberately leave the sheet as is. But not to leave you disappointed here is a little trick on how you could copy/paste what you want. Double click on the cell you want to copy, once the cursor is inside the cell select what you want to copy (just double click if you want to select everything in the cell) and press Ctrl-C. Head to the destination cell and double click on the cell, once the cursor is inside the cell press Ctrl-V. This way you can copy/paste any value without messing with the background.

Fixed that in version 3.3
Thanks again for your valuable info.

I haven't downloaded this tool although I would like to see it - the only thing holding me back is Rapidshare.
Not only is there a delay but it's bloody slow. I use MediaFire to host the spreadsheet/application I've designed, and so far I haven't heard anything negative about it.
As far as I know there's no delay, no premium content and the speed (I know because I've downloaded one or two files myself) is adequate, much faster than rapidshare anyway. The account is free to set up and really easy to do although the max file size for free is I've just checked 100MB.
Go on get on mediafire You know you want to.

Hi Desmont,
Nice programm. Only few comments from my side. I don't get the info where our POS is placed. Secondly I can't see how much cpu and powergrid is in use. Last thing i don't get is the fuel last for liquid ozone and heavy water (also the hours are not calculated, assume this will start when the fuel is coming below one day).
For the rest great programm, thx.

Cpu and PowerGrid has to be set manually. The consumption of HW and LO is not a fixed number but calculated as a percentage of the CPU and PowerGrid used by the POS. That's why I added the 14 sets slots. As long as you fill in the data (you can get it by opening the "manage" window of the POS ingame) you have to select that set from the cell left to the "CPU" indication of the slots (top of the "Set##" column). Once done that the HW and LO consumption will be calculated and you will get the remaining time till shutdown.
As for not getting the info of where your POS is, the only reasonable explanation is that it's not in the moon database of the program. Is the POS anchored in Hisec or Lowsec? Empire or null sec? Drop me an Eve mail with where your POS is anchored to cross-reference the location with the database. |
