PICalc is a small tool to help with calculating component production for Planetary Interaction.
You simply choose the POS structure or component you wish to make and enter the quantity, it will then show you the following.
- Total materials required
- Stage by stage components
- Time to manufacture
- Total and component costs
- Plus much more...
It is a simple and hopefully easy to use tool with a single purpose, which should be very useful for anyone doing or planning PI production of any scale.
A screenshot is available here.
You can download it, or get more information, from the site below. PICalc
There is a short demo video on youtube, for anyone that is curious but cant spare the time to download it ;) http://youtu.be/mlVEbWm0-bE This shows version 1 but it gives a good idea of what the program offers.
Any questions, bugs, comments or suggestions please post here and i will try to get back to you. Old Thread |

Cea Barr wrote:Well, looks promising. I am trying at this moment and as far as I can see, it needs some new abilities like;
- Needs "Collapse" ability like "Expand"
- Needs to list other products like P3's or P2's. When I don't want to go for P4's, I would be able to select my top tier as P3's for example.
- Material List exporting to CSV is not working as intended. Misplacing the columns.
It looks good since there are not many PI calculators around. Needs some polishing and user friendly abilities. Keep it up.
sorry i always forget about people who use , for decimals. Ive fixed the export and added a collapse button, just need to test it a bit then ill do a new release.
Im thinking about how best to add the other levels of PI products, trying to make it really flexible so it works for anyone. If not ill just add them to the current list for the next version.
Thanks for the bug report and suggestions. |

It's got the fixes and features you wanted plus an advanced mode feature which should help a lot of people.
In normal mode you select 1 item from the drop-down list and click calculate. In advanced mode you select an item, add it to the list, then add as many more items as you want. It then calculates the total materials, time, cost etc. for the whole list.

Nice app. Keep it up. Tax is an interesting idea, i never considered that. I will see if i can add that for the next version.
Im not exactly sure what you mean with the favourites but im sure i could do something to remember previous selections. Is the new advanced mode helpful for you?
Keep the feedback coming and enjoy the latest version. |

Unfortunately it doesn't work on Mac (or Linux). The Microsoft libraries I use to make the user interface look and work the way it does are only compatible with Windows. (.NET4/WPF if you're interested)
However it works well in a virtual machine. I believe a lot of Mac users use VMware Fusion, although im sure free alternatives exist.

Its been a year since my last update and it looks like there's a few things need adding. Also a big thank you to the 3200+ people who downloaded this version.
Im hoping to add outposts and related components, these should really have been there before but i couldnt find the right items in the static data. Ill also take a look at some of the suggestions here and see if anything else needs updating for Rubicon.
Nehemyah Spires: Cost of materials includes the tax. Ill do something to make this more obvious as it doesnt make sense right now.
Thanks again for using PICalc and thanks for the feedback. Fear. |
