Hi Guys,
I'm very new to developing for EVE Online. I had thought of an interesting tool that could be used for trading. Basically it would send you a notification whenever someone undercut or overcut your buy or sell orders.
However, after a few hours of figuring it all out, I noticed that the char MarketOrders cache timer was set to 1 hour. I figure that since the timer is at an hour this tool would pretty much be worthless. Am I right in assuming this, or is there another way for me to accomplish this?
I'd really appreciate any help. I was writing the application in PHP.
Let me know if You need more information from me.
Thanks! |

If you have your order IDs (ex. from the XML), you could theoretically use CREST. Theoretically, because CREST atm is **** - it often doesn't work and it's so slow, it will make you cry. But you should be able to update faster than once per hour.

Thanks for the response! A couple hours after posting this thread I was laying in bed and thought of exactly what you suggested. So CREST provides the order ID's when you make a request? |
