Owned blueprint filter under the manufacturing tab is broken. It is showing everything, not simply what I own.
It fixed itself after I hit refresh a couple of times.

Tower settings need a place to select charters and the type of charters needed. Cost per slot needs a way to input in the number of active slots.

It would be nice if this could could tie back into blueprints to give a cost per level of ME/PE. An ISK per hour calculator where I could input a contracts sale price with start and end ME/PE levels for a selected blueprint would be helpful. A way to do the same with copyslots would be helpful (though that is probably non-complex enough to do easily with a spreadsheet).

For the hub systems, is there any way to set a designated market alt and take their skills/standings into account?

Does this program take implants into account?

For T1 ships it would be nice to be able to compare the isk per hour for building off the print with the isk per hour of selling copies.

Big thanks for this! Lots of new features and "quality of life" changes to make using the program even easier. When checking for updates on my old version, I was provided a link to the website to download the new version, but clicking on it took me to the former required access DB page from microsoft.

Just thought I'd provide a bit of bug and feature related feedback:

-The Manufacturing list filters are very buggy. Couldn't get it to work until I added my own blueprints in the manager. "All BPO" filter doesn't work until you do a calculation of your own blueprints, then change the filter back to "All blueprints". Simply doesn't do anything until then.

As the above poster said the "Owned blueprints" filter is also odd. I have it showing my owned blueprints, plus every single T3 blueprint as well, which I do not own.

The window size is by design and does not allow Maximization at this time. I am working to allow this feature soon.
Window does indeed allow maximization, but the actual contents of the program in the window do not resize with it.

I tried to "reset stored blueprint data" in the manage blueprints menu option, in an attempt to resolve my blueprint issues, and got this error: An Unhandled Exception has occured and EVE Isk per Hour will now close...

Really love the changes to the price window - much less clicking required and much easier!

Something I personally would love to see: on the blueprints tab, when typing in the name of something, it fills in as you go, much like EVE MEEP does. Also so you can type in a full(or partial name if it finds the item you want), maybe just hit down arrow to select it, then hit enter to bring up the info on the blueprint you selected. So: click on blueprint box, type in "medium cargo" , at this point I'd get a dropdown that contained the only 2 items with "medium cargohold" in the name - the T1 and T2 rigs. I could now press down arrow once to get the t1 BP, and twice for the T2 one. Pressing enter would confirm my selection and the blueprint page would update. I think that'd be great.

Thanks again for this awesome program!

SVR numbers feel low. Are you maybe counting the current day as a full day when doing the average? Either that or the low volume on Mondays and Tuesdays is throwing the average for the rest of the week.

Edit-Calculate average price strikes me as dangerous. I want to know the average price but I also want to know how things look in Jita right now.

-edit3: Although some way to know how much above or under 180 day average a products current price is would be quite handy.

-edit4: Of course if you do that you might as well flag products where current supply is a standard deviation away from average supply. That would allow for detection of both spikes and gluts.

Excellent app. Im having a slight issue with importing corp BPOs however. It keeps telling me I dont have API with asset list while I know I do. Even in the API management window when I select corp api key it has "asset list" checkmarked.

Any ideas?

Hi there,

I've been using your program for 2 months now and I have to say it's really saving me a lot of time and work I would have to do otherwise. After beating the crap out of excel sheets and thinking about putting together a similar project I came across yours and I'm really happy that I didn't have to do it myself ;-) I think there will be some isk left within the next couple of days after paying for the game time which will go to your wallet then, really appreciate your work.

This said, I got some bugs bothering me since 2.0 came out yesterday. It's almost always crashing the program with this message: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." I'm working with windows 7 professional, 64bit.

The first one which I could identify can be reproduced as follows:

1. Get a price update (if you haven't already earlier)
2. Select any blueprint in the "Blueprint" tab
3. Click the "Add to shopping list" button
4. Go back to the "Update Price" tab
5. Import prices again
6. Program crashes

Hope this can get fixed anyhow, I really like to check prices in different regions and look how much I can save buying there. The need to rebuild the shopping list after each price update is really annoying.

Cheers mate

Am I wrong in thinking that the manufacturing list screen now shows a 30 day average and not the current lowest sell order?

Feature Request: Set prices based multiple trade hub systems

Rational: A manufacturer may be willing to visit several trade hubs to buy/sell at a better price. It s not that hard to visit a few trade hubs, but its a lot harder to track down and visit the cheapest systems from multiple regions, especially if you have a long shopping list.

Detail: In the 'update prices' tab, allow multiple trade hub systems to be selected, so if 'minimum sell' price import type was selected, the final price would be the minimum price from all the selected trade hubs (systems not regions).

Thanks

Think I just found a bug.

The manufacturing calculator doesn't take in consideration owned vs unowned, even if you click the owned BPO filter button.

Plus: A reminder on a recommendation I made prior, can we get a method of tracking current manufacturing orders and a method for defining production "baskets", a group of BPOs that are typically produced together?

Strange. No big difference in the options. Go to Manufacturing, change the filter from all BPs to Owned BPs, Hit preview item list, shows T2 BP that I dont own. Hit calculate, and it throws up the "Will take some time warning" and then it calculates the BPOs. This being said, the list appears to be different from the "All BPs" filter, kind of like some T2 BPs, etc are leaking in to my Owned BP screen.

Glad to hear you will be working on the recommendations.

Thanks for the response and I hope you can reproduce this bug.

For some reason I can't see my owned BPO/BPC anywhere. I thought those would be imported with the asset list?

I was really just thinking about having accurate prices to be used when calculating manufacturing costs.

I assume it could be implemented the same way as when multiple regions are selected.

Jita is a good system to use for prices for most things, but for low end minerals its expensive, which distorts the manufacturing costs when trying to workout what to make. A recent example i came across is producing Capital Construction Parts, Jita is a good place to sell them, but its not a good place to buy the minerals to make them. I could select multiple regions to get a more accurate price, but in reality im not prepared to fly to any system in the regions i select to get a good price, im happy with the best price at any of the major trade hubs.

I dont think its essential to report what system/region the best price is (but i do it in a crude spreadhseet i have), but getting accurate prices is always important.

Thanks

This may seem like a newb question, but can anyone explain to me how the following Price Types work:
"Average" anything, is it a 30 day average?
Buy & Sell anything... like "Maximum Buy and Sell for example"

Thanks in advance

Thanks Zif, updated correctly.

Would like to ask a question on the "optimal" capability of the tool - where it picks a component price above a raw material price. Say I want to build a Nyx and look at the "Optimal" method. The tool specifies that buying 2 or 3 ready made components off the market is more cost efficient however, it bases that assumption on the price of the cheapest sell of which there is only 1 or 2 at that price, not the 128 or 504 that I need.

For the best result, what setting would I chose when I import the prices?

Quick question. If I'm looking at a component using item (say a T2 Expanded Cargohold) and I have none of the required component BPOs but I put assume 30/15 into the temp box, does the program assuming I have all the component BPOs at 30/15 or at 0/0?

Also if I have none of the relevant invention/reverse engineering skills but am using the manufacturing tab to evaluate potential profitability how does the program handle it (does it assuming 4/4/4 or something)?

This may be a bug only I experience not sure but you can try to recreate it.

If you goto the blueprint tab, load up a blue print, and delete all numbers in the "Additional Cost" box and either "click out" of the box to highlight something else, or press refresh, the client will crash.

Great program enjoying it so far.

I'm sure not understanding how you are figuring total invention cost but I'm as of right. If I hover over total invention cost:

Average Successful Invention Cost = Datacores+Decryptors+Install Fees.

I pick an item say Medium Cargohold Optimization II Blueprint.

I import Jita min buy prices. I select Assembly Instructions as my decryptor.

Total Invention Cost = 8,725,820.81.

I bounced over to my prices and check Assembly Instructions.

Cost = 30,700,068.01

So without even including datacores the decryptor cost more than the stated invention cost.

Thanks for your response. So are you saying I shouldn't put too much weight into that number at all?

Medium Core Defence Field Extender II - Using Tuning Instructions w/ jita min sell. The result is 1 run so I leave 1 in the Runs box.

Invention Cost 17,162,149.55

Decryptor Cost: 8,162,149.55
Combined data core cost: 1.1 mil - ish.

For the noobish inclined (aka me.):
Can somebody give a quick tutorial on how to work this magnificent piece of coding? Explain it as if you were talking to a dog, won't be offended.

From my understanding:

1st Step: Open the Update Prices Tab and press Import Prices
2: go to Manufacturing List Tab and press Preview Item List
3: Press Calculate
4: At a loss what to do now...

Can somebody give me an example 'How to?'

Thank you VERY much!

I was about to suggest this "addition."

Price editing is difficult and time consuming. A quick way to change the sell price of the item itself, and its components, all from the BP page would be huge.

If I could "change" anything, it'd be this feature!

And thanks for fixing the crash bug...I got into the habit of accidently crashing it!

The .msi file still says it's for 2.0. Is this the most up to date install?

Hi all,

I would like to use the soft but I'm encountering odd behavior when I update the manufacturing part.
The thing after having imported the prices, I unchecked (into the manufacturing part this time), the Tech 2 and tech 3 abilities and click on Preview Item List and after that on Calculate.
I get all the column SVR empty.

I think I did not miss a thing when creating my API key (I checked all the radio button), so if you have an idea about why I'm not able to update my SVR column, I would be pleased to hear about that :).

Thanks.

Im sure you've got enough things to keep you busy for quite a while, but thought i might mention another feature request, its a big one, so really just mentioning as perhaps a long term goal.

Currently the shopping list contains the total total amount of materials used to manufacture whatever stuff your planning to build.

It would be useful if the shopping list had a list of materials you dont have, so take the list of materials required to make the products, subtract the materials you already have, and show that as well.

I expect it would be major feature because you would need to pull inventory data from eveapi and manage that data, it would probably make sense to add an "inventory viewer" as well, so yea, a big one i assume.

EDIT: Oh, and the total volume of stuff in shopping list would be good to, so you know if it will fit in your ship, or what ship to fly ;)

Thanks

Sorry if this is already answered some where but I notice there is a place for corp blueprints. is there a way for it to auto grab this information? for all the corp blueprints available?

First, I'm new at this industry stuff.

I'm having trouble figuring out how your program is calculating isk per hour for reactions.

So I update the prices for Jita. I have an alt in there. I write down the prices. They don't match from the program but they're pretty close. Figure it's lag regarding the market uploader thing.

I flip over to the reactions tab. I select advanced. I say to build basic compounds for components. I assume this means I plan to buy the raw materials, react them into processed materials, and react those into components.

It says I can make approx 10mil per hour if I make nano transmitters so I do the math.

NT take 100 each of sulferic acid, platinum technium or whatever, and neo merchurium or whatever. It makes 1500 NT.

Each of these takes 100 of a raw material and makes 200.

I add up the cost of one unit of each raw material I need to make all the above. It adds up to approx 150k.

Since I get 2 per 1 and for each one of those I get 15, I figure 1 of each raw mat = 30 NT. (1 => 2. 1 of 2 => 15. 1 = = > 30)
My real cost divided by 30 is approx 5k. NT cost approx 6k. Thus I make 1k for each unit I produce.

Multiply this by 3000 (to get the absolute max out of my mats) I get more like 3mil per hour, way below 10mil. Where did I go wrong? How many complex reactors does it assume you are running? 2 seems like a lot already. Is there some way to make them produce more?

Is that perhaps why I the autoupdater isn't running on Vista machines? (Also it wants me to uninstall everything and do a reinstall to manually update to the current version, I'm not adverse to doing this but don't want to have to reenter all my BP data).

Gah
Forum ate my post

Short version, advanced reactions with the "build basic.." checkbox ticked still doesn't work because it's calculating the profit based on two complex reactors running (twice the output material). It creates really misleading ISK / hr figures when you factor in POS fuel.

edit: the specific reaction I was looking at was Ferrogel

Also, a suggestion:
It would be convenient if we could see and edit the prices of items in the reactions tab, without having to go to the "update prices" tab every time

Nope this is upgrading from one version 2.x to another version of 2.x. I finally bit the bullet last night an uninstalled.

I haven't read the entire thread but here are my observations:

- Mineral prices aren't correct as they are undervalued by several ISK.
- Some BP's aren't in the database e.g. Trauma Heavy, EMP S & L
- Under Bluepring, Type Selection Heavy Missiles doesn't exist

It's a nice programme but these problems make it useless to those who want to manufacture EMP L, Trauma and actually think the update price function works.

I haven't gone through the entire BP list but it's interesting these are missing.

Where do you get this corp key?

I was having problems upgrading under Win 7, i forget the error description, but i just went to check, this time it downloaded and installed the update and its stuck at the opening graphic showing program name and version. (ill reinstall)

You might find it useful to add a minor version number for bugfixes, so 2.0.x, that way people can tell you more precisely what version they are reporting bugs in.

EDIT: It became unstuck, it gave an error message "unable to update character data", so not really a bug.

EDIT2: 2nd time starting it up and after it froze, it crashed, this wont be much use though.

It gives an error that says something like this program already exists (something about uninstall). To make things even stranger the most recent version of EPH does not generate the error (I went from version 2.0 to the new one).

Better way to check.
Ferrogel reaction uses these base materials:
Dysprosium
Hafnium
Chromium
Platinum
Promethium
Vanadium
Cadmium

Set all their prices to zero.
Set POS fuel price to zero.

Set Ferrogel price to 1 ISK.
IPH says the profitability is 800 ISK / HR (if you un-tick taxes and fees), that is 800 units produced per hour. That requires TWO complex reactors running.

I wouldn't be surprised if there are problems with the other complex reactions when you set it to calculate a full reaction chain, since someone else already reported a problem with a different one.

The shopping list behavior seems to have changed. It no longer provides a list of all components and raw materials. Add adding items to the shopping list seems to only add components for me not raw materials. And copying the list gives you only the components.

The previous function of getting raw materials totals, component totals, and final item totals was very useful to me.

Has anyone else experienced the app not accepting their API key?

Does IPH list m3 of output anywhere? Trying to figure out how much hauling some of these scenarios would involve.

ME levels do not seem to be effecting the build requirements for POS components. A Silo at ME 0 and at ME 100 still takes 50,000 trit.

Hello Zifrian,

As you already know, I use your very nice tool at work and at home.

I have updated my owned BPO's at work.
I would like to know if I can, with a simple/copy paste of a "data file" (or maybe the whole directory), update IPH at home.
It will save me a lot of time if it is possible...

Thank you.

Regards,
Director Producer

Shinnyyyyyy tooool ...

I guess i will share my first quarterly profit with you.


Are there any plans for planetary reaction profit calculation?

trying to update to the latest version using the version 2.0.4411.33303

i get this message

"unable to download updates at this time. Please try again later
Error: file not found"

First off, thank you so much for this tool! I, too, have been frustrated to try to find a way to sort through which of the decent items to manufacture will actually be likely to sell. Sure SVR has its limits, but I find it to be a helpful reference to consider if the supposed massive isk/hour is worth the risk of the price changing quite a bit before I get the darned thing sold. I have not done manufacturing in a looong time because I lost interest in all the data I had to pour over, but this tool looks fun and it is encouraging me to give it another try sometime (on an alt )

As a hobbyist bug squasher I wanted to bring a few things to your attention. I want to add a small disclaimer that for now I have only tried this on one computer, a slower beast running Windows XP, so some of the issues might be just because of my computer.

1) Tooltips, Only on Some Things? - On the manufacturing list tab, I can mouseover things like the various probability multipliers (to get a list of the names of the various items for each race and the stats for that item) or Profit %, SVR, and SVR*IPH for a brief description of what that means. However, many items do not seem to have a mouseover tool tip, such as IPH and Profit under Sort By and any of the 4 options under Price Comparison. I'm guessing that you have just implemented tooltips for items that you thought needed some sort of explanation. Are these other tooltips there and just not showing up for me? Perhaps this is more of a 'feature request' than a 'bug' but since there is no manual (that I know of) for EVEIPH, more tool tips would be appreciated .

2) Faction POSes, Same Fuel Cost - when clicking the "Edit POS" button in the Manufacturing List tab, I see where you can set various types of POSes but I noticed that when changing from a Caldari Small Tower to a Guristas Small Tower the fuel costs don't change. My understanding is that CCP finally settled on making the faction towers use less fuel - 10% less for 'tier 1' towers and 20% less for 'tier 2' towers. To be fair, I have not actually messed with faction towers since the fuel block switch over so maybe CCP again changed their minds on that one, but if that is the case, it looks like the fuel block consumption numbers for faction towers are incorrect.

3) Build Block Price Doesn't Vary - When I select Standard Towers and check the 4 races, I see that the "Buy" costs vary for Fuel Blocks but the "Build" costs seems to stay the same (at the moment it is 12748.60.) With no other costs considered except the raw materials, using the Blueprint tab I figure these are the current prices per block assuming ME 100: Amarr 12192.20, Caldari 12748.60, Gallente 12750.25, Minmatar 13970.80. When I check the Update Prices tab for ice products, sure enough, the different isotopes have different prices. This seems to suggest that there is an issue with how the "Set POS Settings" thing calculates Build costs for Fuel Blocks. Apparently it is only using the Caldari isotope (Nitrogen) for all the fuel blocks? Also, a side question - what ME is this basing the Build Price off of? Changing the "ME and PE for Unowned BPs doesn't seem to change the Build Price from 12748.60. Is it using perfect ME?

4) Meta 2-4 Items Showing with T1 and T2 Only Checked - On the Manufacturing List tab, when I check Modules and Tech 1 and Tech 2 (but no other items) I end up with things like Dual Modal Giga Pulse Laser I and Capital Coaxial Regenerative Projector I in my lists. Similarly, items like Gaze Survey Probe 1 and Discovery Survey Probe I show up with Tech 1, Tech 2, and Ammo/Charges checked. So far as I know, the BPOs for these items are not offered and they are not produced through invention. I honestly don't know much about where the blueprints for these items come from (because they have info in the Blueprints tab, so there must be a blueprint somehow) but I'd rather not have them cluttering up my search if they aren't something I can reasonably lay hands on. If I'm just derping here and the BPOs are available or BPCs for these are made through invention, just tell me, but if not, would you mind perhaps making a different sort of checkbox for these (like with Storyline and Faction) since they are not truly "T1" as they are listed as (in the sense that I can't just buy a BPO for them)?

Some math still seems incorrect, for example when using "compare components" it doesnt take all the time in its calculations. Earning 19m when the copying alone takes 3-4 days does not end up being over 1m per hour.

EDIT: This only seems to be the case with T2 mining crystals but perhaps more.

Is there any way to add items that are missing manually? There's some materials that are needed for storyline production missing, like Guristas Graviton Hardening , Guristas Gravity Focuser , etc.

One word of caution.

After installing this app I started having issues with my PC:

- Product advertisements coming through my headset even when browsers were not running
- Browsers opening on their own and going to particular pages
- Constant action on my HDD

The issue was identified as being Trojan n10JO5.com & N10JO5~1.com and promptly removed.

Please note that I have two PCs at home, with exactly the same anti-virus and visit the same websites on both. The issue occurred only on the PC this app was installed on.

I CANNOT say that this app was the reason for the issues I was having, but please be aware and let me have your feedback if you'd like.

I found a bug with the production time in the Blueprint field:
When telling the program to use multiple lines and multiple Blueprints the production time and some other values are pretty wrong. Telling the program to use 5 Lines should either multiply all earnings by 5 or decrease the production time by the factor 5 but the reduction in time is approx 1/6 which is wrong. Take a look into that section.

But thanks for the program, it is really awesome :)

New to indy and this program, but I'm curious if there's a way of getting rid of certain items in the MFG list.

For example, I don't want any capital stuff: quad 3500mm seige artillery, for example. If I could get a list that's a lot more trim it would clear up some clutter for me while I'm looking for items that a newb can mfg. :)

Also just a quick question here, but could I build that item at a normal high sec station or do I need a POS with some capital arrays or something for that?

edit: Also, what's up with BPC packages on contracts? I can't seem to (often) find single BPC in the contract market and that would be really helpful. Is it just a matter of crappy UI and contract slot limitation issues from ccp? I just hate seeing package of like 40 BPC when I only want one of those. :(

Would it be possible to set Broker Relations, Accounting, faction and corp standing separate from my characters skills? That would help in determining IPH when you have an industrial character and a market alt.

Integrity Response Drones - a component in POS construction are not showing a value.

-edit, when you select download everything but have no region or station checked the program pulls info from -somewhere-. When it does so Integrity response drones do not pull a price. Where ever somewhere is, it has a very nice market.

Components seem to not be flowing through properly on the manufacturing spreadsheet. This was spotted by:
Set to show only moon harvesting arrays (use one cap construction part each)
1. Type in 100ME/20PE in the assume BPO filter - note price
2. Now go to the manage blueprint tab and add a BPC for capital construction components with a 100ME/20PE.

Recompute and note that the isk per hour rises.

Hey, when calculating IPH for T2 items, does IPH mean ISK per hour of manufacturing hour, or does it take time to copy and invent into account.

The bottleneck for T2 production could be either Copy, Invention or Production slots. It depends on what is begin built, available skills and POS layout.

Perhaps there could be a way to specify what type of slot is your bottleneck for T2 items.


Thanks

When copying data out of the data core table using the Copy Selected to Clipboard it pastes all data as a single line versus one line per item selected. i.e. if I select 4 items i want to paste 4 separate lines not 1 really long one.

I'm also having an issue with prices not updating across the board nor is it saving my Default system between shutting down and restarting the program.

In keeping with the bottleneck discussion, I have enabled invention time (disabled copy time) and am looking at the Harpy, which is bottlenecked by invention time (25h x 2.76 attempts/success = roughly 69 hours per successful invention at 1.0x). Showing a component profit of 7M, that works out to about 101k per hour profit.

the bp isk per hour shows 396k (makes sense if you ignore invention time)

the raw isk per hour shows 153k (no idea where this one comes from)

1)In what way is the program factoring in invention time into the calculations if you turn it on?

2) How is "total item production time" calculated? It shows 1day 23h 46mins for the harpy but not sure where that number is coming from.

This is a really nice tool, thank you for the hard work put in to building and maintaining it!

I noticed a few small things as I was using the app.

When in the blueprint management screen updating me/pe values, when you have the unfiltered list everything defaults to not being checked. When you select a type filter, every time you update an me/pe value everything defaults to checked and you need to uncheck all every time before entering the next set of me/pe values. It would be handy to have them both default to not checked, when entering data for hundreds of bps with very different me/pe values it would make the process a bit quicker.

It would be really nice to be able to update me/pe values from the blueprints tab anywhere an me/pe value appears. So for example under the blueprint icon, as well as the bottom left portion for the component material list (for items that have sub components like t2 and capitals).

A way to back up the me/pe values (or even the whole database) to a separate backup file would be great.

There is no way to set the default production time multiplier in the manufacturing list, this would be good in case you do production at POS for example.

Would be nice if you could save your shopping list from session to session. If we could have several shopping lists that would be heavensend.

If we could also bookmark certain blueprints that would be great too.

You definitely broke something with this patch, everything on the manufacturing list comes up as 0 IPH no matter what options i choose.
The market data is imported so its not that.

Hello,

I am learning your tool, so far its great but am having a few issues or questions.

I am trying to use the manufacturing tab to figure out what to manufacture and am using the iph*svr or iph settings, with ignore low svr turned on and it keeps recommending things that seem like a nice profit at first but when you check the volume of the item on the marketplace it is recommending items to that have a very very low volume in sales. Granted i may make that isk for making and selling them but donGÇÖt want to wait 2 months to sell 1 item.

I thought the svr setting along with ignore low svr was supposed to filter low volume items out but doesnGÇÖt seem to make a difference, at least for me. Is there something i am doing wrong or am i just misunderstanding what the setting does.

Some examples of what it recommends to me, all of them donGÇÖt seem to sell very well:
Large tracking diagnostic subroutines II
Large Salvage Tackle II
Small Drone Scope Chip II
Large Auxiliary thrusters II


2) Why does the isk per hour and total profit not match between the Manufacturing and blueprint screens, even if you set the me/pe/decryptor etc, to be the same? Which one should i be looking at to estimate potential profit.

Thanks for your help and your very nice application.

Oh i also have an idea for a option in the manufacturing list screen. It is that in the invention decryptors area adding an option to only display the most profitable of the decryptor options you have checked when you calculate the list.

I think your problem is with number of runs.

I'm not positive but I believe the Mfg tab selects a max run BPC + amount of runs invention would give to calculate numbers. SO in the BP tab, you need to change "Copies" (Under the Invention portion) to the max runs, and then change "runs" to the amount of runs the invention will give on the BPC. The numbers should then be much closer/matching.

Awesome program. Only thing I would suggest in teh mining section is a feature to allow multiple ships since a lot of people mine with multiple hulks I know you can just multiply the isk by number of ships its just a suggestion. Also I cant find where you can put rorq in deployed mode as boosts in this mode are a lot higher. Unless this mode is the default and Im not realizing it.

Is there a feature in this to show reprocessing yields? Maybe another app has this?

Also I just noticed it looks like the mining laser bonus is coming from a t1 gang link and not the new t2. I say this cause a maxed orca with mindlink in IPH brings cycle time down to 133 sec while ingame my maxed orca with mindlink brings cycle time down to 120ish. And I didnt see the t2 mining lazors in the list unless i missed them.

Eeh the Trauma missiles seems to have reverted back into Scourge missiles, fix this.

Saw now that its the same thing in EVEMon, wtf?

I was looking at modules, and it does not appear that selecting .65 multiplier for using the rapid assembly array is calculating the extra material costs... its a 1.2x multiplier for materials where the equipment array and npc station is 1.0.

Great tool

I noticed a bug with the "Blueprints" tab
Open up the Rokh, enter 1 run on 1 line, says it takes 4h. Now change it to 10 runs, click refresh, 1d 16h, appears correct. Now we change it to 9 lines, how long should it take? 8h, because the first 4h we produce 9 units, and the next cycle we use the last unit and 8 lines are unused. However when we click refresh it still says 1d 16h, and if we change it to just 1 line the time persists(which it should) which suggests something is not working as it should

Quick questions

• Anyway to increase the "Runs" attribute (currently limited to 999999)


• Anyway to specify the "Num lines" attribute manually? So we can enter the lines available for all our alts or corp


• Material volume at the bottom would be nice (perhaps item volume at the top aswell...)


• Will we see a new tab that handles reprocessing?

I need to ask, when i fx get 300k isk per hour according to your program, is that per invention slot?

For example i calcuate that i earn 60mill a day with one module, and using your program i suddenly only make 34 mill.

Just to clarify, ive been inventing for years, i know how much i make. Also RAM tech shouldnt cost the full price when something i build only require 0.15 x ram tech.

Hello Zifrian,

I encoutered an error when copying my Shopping List !



It crashes everytime I try to copy.
If you need any other information, feel free to ask

Wonderful tool, I've not tried all the parts yet but unless I've missed something I do not think you can include drones in the mining calculator. You could either add that feature or just add a "additional m3/min mined" field.

i'm still getting the hang of your program but while i was playing with it i ran into this problem

Basically all I did was select ice and hit calculate, which then crashed the program.

If you need any other info let me know. Pretty amazing program overall. It doesn't appear to have a refining calculator though. Obviously the ISK per hour under the mining tab ould change quite a bit if it factored in the fact that the ore would get refined once brought back to the station, or am I missing something?

In case this hasn't been said already in 11 pages of posts, it would be great to be able to manually set the SVR that is use for the "ignore low svr" button.

Cheers and thanks for the great app.

I cannot fly a Hulk. But on the mining tab, I want to calculate isk per hour with a Hulk for mining things. Even when I override my skills to be all-level-5 (via the checkbox, which seems to uncheck itself next time I go back to character skills menu) I cannot select Hulk as a mining ship option. I set mining / astrogeo as L5 on mining tab already.

How do I select Hulk?

Hey zifran, really nice program you made :)

I have a problem though... as I cannot install it. It keeps saying that the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. Tried to repair it / restart it (the service) and nothing changed.... Is there something wrong with the executable (as I can install any other programs on my pc atm with no problems) or is it something else ?

Zifrian -

My copy of IPH has stopped calculating SVR. If it's broken just for me, is there anything I can do to fix it without nuking my preferences?

Also, feature request -- don't show the build cost from Components, etc for T1 items that don't have components.

I'm sure that I'm doing it wrong...

I like the look of the program, and the comments from people makes it sound as though this is a great too.

Problem...

Can't seem to load my Owned BP's

hints?

Ahh, seems not to matter maybe. Ok, I've got the BP's now. The ME/PE is not reflected. Must that be manually set?

Questions from a new user.

There are some things I'd love for someone to clear up for me.

1. Manufacturing List options - Can you explain the T1 BPC runs box? When to use and how.
2. Manufacturing List window - What is being indicated by the yellow highlight on some items.
3. Manufacturing List window - I have SVR * IPH selected as the sort, with compare all. I have multiple results in window, isk per hour varies. What is difference between Components, and Build/Buy?
4. Blueprint Window - entering a number of BP's doesn't appear to change anything. Do I just multiply my BP's by runs, and put total runs in?
5. Blueprint Window - item costs Component vs. Raw Material. Just looking for clarification. This is saying cost/profit if built from purchased components, or building all?
6. Blueprint Window - Invention box - Is this calculated into the BP/RAW IPH calculations, and info on Manufacturing list?

I think that's it for now. LOL

Thank you in advance.

Am I missing something obvious that there doesn't seem to be a quick way to switch between multiple pilots?

Blueprints and Manufacturing tab. Most T1 items can only be built from raw materials so don't show Build/Buy or Components for these items.

2.0.4488.11670
Getting a crash on the Manufacturing List tab.
Hitting calculate with SVR+IPH selected. Changing to SVR, hitting refresh - and it crashes.

Great, thanks for the help. I have just one more question for now.

If I want a shopping list for all the BPC's of one type, should I just enter the total number of runs (leaving number of BP's at 1)? Will this give me proper profit/IPH?

Is it just me, or are the mining isk/hour off? it's only saying 19m/hour for prime ark.

I have been using this program for a while and love it! It is great, easy to use and very helpful for quick reference. A few things that would be nice to add though, excuse my noobnish if thee things can be done. Being a heavy inventor with ships and rigs the invention calf does not have an option for full run or single run bpc's for decypters that increase copy runs. Also I don't know if the invention cost updates to full or partial run bpc's which had quite a large price effect.
Secondly when you are making a material list or checking how much it costs to make a t2 item or even t1 it would be great if you could choose the sub items you would like to buy or make on the bpo for better eff% and iph and proper material lists

First: absolutely awesome thing you've got going here. I don't quite fully trust it yet but everything I've checked has been spot on for me! (I've just been distracted by a lot of guide reading lately..

Second: I have a few questions if I ma
- How are you figuring the SVR? I thought it was the number of items sold in the region divided by the number of items I could produce in a day (if I devoted all my lines to producing that item). However, when I change my mass production / advanced mass production skills, I do not see an adjustment in the SVR - even after pressing "calculate"

- SVR represents roughly how large the market is, right? So if I had a SVR of 100 it means that if I put everything into that item for a production day, I could produce 1/100 the number of items sold in a day, righ

- Therefore, SVR * IPH is the potential profit to be made in that market - if you could completely corner it

- Conceptually, it makes sense to me that one ore would be the most profitable to mine if I had no hauler but a different one would be the most profitable if I did have a hauler. However, I can't put a reason on it. I expected the calculator to find the most profitable ore per m3 and the rate at which you could pull in ore. Then for profit take the time you spent mining (time) and multiply it by the rate of extraction (m3/time) multiplied by the price per m3. (isk/m3) I don't see how this would return a completely different ore with a hauler than without. Save for a slight smaller ore bias since your hold can fill more precisely with smaller ore.

I can't understand why you made this public but I am ever so glad that you did

Hi,

is there a option to reset the pricing cache? All i can find is the "reset all options" entry, which also resets your api key. I would like to be able to clear/reset the pricing cache to trigger a download of more recent data.

The blueprints tab tells me that I will lose ISK/h by making a certain item, but the manufacturing list tells me I will not lose money each hour. What is the difference between these?

Yeah, thanks, that was the problem.
Ehh, one more question. What is SVR? Sell something ratio?

Hi there, great tool this and thanks for your work on it!

One request, could you add the ability to update the ME and PE on the BP screen directly? At the moment it seems you have to tick the BP you want, enter the info below, update it, untick the BP, tick the next one etc etc.

How does the export data work?

When i select export data as CSV i thought i would be able to save it to a file.

Hi,

is there a limit/problem with the import of blueprints? I had this working, but somehow no blueprints show up if i try scan either the corp or personal? I already tried reset the IPH and reimporting the keys, but still no blueprints after scan? is there some timelimit or other problem to be aware of?

Thx Andy

Hey! Love the app except one small niggling thing. I can't tell where the blueprint data is saved, so changing computers requires either a) reentering it all or b) taking all the old files and overwriting them, which seems to mess up the patching process, as it can't seem to tell what version its running.

Any help would be appreciated

any luck getting this fixed yet?

When exporting manufacturing list, where can the file be found?

started a few days ago, keep getting this error message when calculating manufacturing list

'no blueprints for the options selected'

not done anything different than before

any ideas?

Thanks

Thx for the price reset and SVR options!

I still get this crash, if i double-click on a entry in the manufacture list, to get it automatically added to the blueprint/prod pane.

Thx Andy

Try resetting the settings for that tab by using the drop down options. If you still get the issue, check the SVR settings and make sure it will show blank SVR and/or change the threshold value to 0.]

hasnt worked :(

tried all resets, even uninstalled and re-installed.

the issue is when i untick 'include w/o SVR values'

Having an issue getting it to even start up. I have installed it with recommended setting, but when i start up, no window pops up, and then the process just ends. :/

Hi, I'm not able to download latest version of IPH from any of mirrors at sourceforge page. Infact it starts to download normally then it slows down unti it stop at some point without completing the download.
Any help ?

TY
Cheers
Skyfar

Could u add support for other price fetch api's, like marketeer, eve.addicts.nl and preferable settable as option?
I would like to have this 5% buy/sell options from marketeer, since avg., median is not very correct on various products.

Thx Andy

How long do you reckon it will be down for? I had this error for a week now. maybe longer but thats when I used it again after a few weeks.

It's since past week that I try to download it with no success, as far as I can see it seems to be a problem only on ISH Project , I tried other sourceforge project and was able to download them, very strange.

Cheers,
Skyfar

this one : http://sourceforge.net/projects/eveiph/files/latest/download?source=files

thank you

cheers,
Skyfar

First off, thanks for the program, I find it extremely useful and much less bloated then some of the other tools out there.

I thought I would throw in my 2 cents on RE. While I haven't actually done RE and manufacture I did crunch the numbers a bit and I think the best way to look at the numbers is profit per group. Even if you don't get the high profit bpc you want to mitigate possible losses with a bad bpc, so you want to average the outcomes.

I also have a feature request for gas harvesting. It is not very hard to work out isk per hour on gas sites, but it is a pain to constantly look up gas mass and price to work this out. What I would like is to have isk per hour per gas type or site and a quick breakdown of what gas is in what sites for quick reference of what is worth the time. Only other number I can think of that might be nice is total value of a particular gas in a site or the entire site.

Thanks!

I came across an idea for a future update a few minutes ago while I was using your program. What if whenever you put in the number of runs for an item that you wanted to produce, there is also a button to add the required raw materials/components to a 'shopping list.' It would remove the need of having to have another spreadsheet to calculate how much of each component you would need.

LJ

EDIT: Wow, 2 minutes later and I realize it's already implemented. You sir,are a genius. Thank you!

EDIT2: Perhaps having a volume of the products after they are produced in the shopping list could be a good addition.

Thx for the quick update before u leave town, btw can u also add POS fuel costs to RE costs, since i only see it added to invention/PE/ME?
Thx Andy

Yes, a volume of the built items, after they are made. It could be used for planning which hauler to use to take each day's goods to the hub.

What time contributes to the difference between "BP Production Time" and "Total Item Production Time" when looking at a T2 Blueprint? Invention time? Copying time? I can't get it to add up.

Also, does anyone know if there's a display bug ingame when it comes to copying time? When looking at T1 BPOs the copy time doesn't seem to change regardless of my Science skill level. For example, a 10mn Afterburner I seems to always have "Research Copy Time" of 6hr 40m

The shopping list is a great feature but I'm running into problems using it.

The shopping list doesn't update correctly for component materials when you use the "add to shopping list" button multiple times for the same item. For example, if I want to do 1000 runs on a blueprint and I want to run 6 jobs, I usually hit the "add to shopping list" button 6 times from the Blueprints tab. While the item list increases in number, the quantity of raw materials doesn't. I'm using the latest version of IPH.

Is there a way to see how many BPC u have? So u can manage stock of those or does the api don't show this kind of information?

I love the tool, I do have a feature request though.

Can you implement a "Pessimistic" price import type? Buying raw materials from the Lowest Sell order,Selling finished goods to the Highest Buy order.

I'm having an issue with the v2 installation. Previous to the latest update IPH v2 was running fine. It then said there was an update and after attempting to update it said it was no longer supported.

Ok fine, removed the old installation, downloaded the latest .msi file and installed, all good. Apparently not...

IPH will run and the popup window for the API comes up, here is where the problem starts...

The window either disappears too fast to copy and paste the API into in or after entering the API information the dialog window disappears and IPH doesn't start. Running IPH again results in the same API dialog pop up and issues.

I have tried a repair on the installation and even removed it and re-installed it again, same problem.

Running under Win7

Ok no idea what happened, just uninstalled it again. Downloaded the .msi file once more, installed it and everything works....wierd

Cheers

Yea i had similar problems, but seems to work now.

1 thing i have noticed is that on edit/manage BPs, a drake BP doesnt exist and so cant be added as owned. Ive checked and double checked all filters etc. but it just doesnt appear. It does however appear via the initial BP tab.

SVR values still doesnt seem to update properly and i get a message every 24 hours about not being to update all of them, is this eve marketeers problem?

The shopping list is a great feature but I'm running into problems using it.

The shopping list doesn't update correctly for component materials when you use the "add to shopping list" button multiple times for the same item. For example, if I want to do 1000 runs on a blueprint and I want to run 6 jobs, I usually hit the "add to shopping list" button 6 times from the Blueprints tab. While the item list increases in number, the quantity of raw materials doesn't. I'm using the latest version of IPH.

Hey,

great program!

Just one thing that would make it even more awesome: Is it possible to add a "Volume" column to the Component / Raw Material List (at tab "Blueprints"). Some people actually care about how much m-¦ they have to haul :-)

Keep up the great work!

Mikokoel

Feature Request

When you copy to clipboard from either shopping list or the blueprints tab, could you please include the mineral cost of each item/unit and market cost of each item/unit?

I just noticed something, in the mining tab, the Highwall Mining Implants don't seem to be providing any yield boost to Hulks (not sure about other ships, but I don't think they're working for any ships.

I've tried resetting the page and setting all the tabs up, and each time it comes out the same whether I'm using no implant, a 1%, a 3%, or a 5%. Michi's is working just fine.

minor issue on an otherwise incredible program. When i choose a decryptor for t2 or a relic for t3 production, hitting the refresh buttons multiple times seems to cycle through all the decryptors in order, sometime compounding the total profit exponentially.

Also, the t3 production seems to be bugged. an intact relic provides 20 run, but when i type in 20 runs after RE'ing off an intact, it shows as the RE cost being 20 separate successes on an intact relic. e.g. the "invent" cost is 20x what it should be. It's not hard to math out the actual profit, but heads up! :)

On the Reactions tab, when I check the boxes "Advanced Moon Materials" and "Build Basic Compounds for Advanced Materials", it shows that Nanotransistors would make me an hourly profit of 3,438,623 ISK (I inputted the prices manually from a Jita alt). Now I assume that when it says "Build Basic Compounds for Advanced Materials" it means "buy the basic moon goo off the market, react it into processed materials, then react those into advanced materials and sell on the market"; however, when I do the mathematics myself, the figure quoted simply doesn't hold true. The Techetium alone costs more to buy than the Nanotransistors it makes sell for, so there seems to me to be no profit in that reaction at all, despite what the program says.

Maybe I'm just misinterpreting what the program is designed to do, or doing something else dumb, but I felt I should inquire nontheless.

On an unrelated note can the tool import ME/PE stats from the API? Im currently researching BPOs as I build my base and have to manually up date them is annoying (but I shouldnt ***** about an awesome free tool...)

But, when i type in # of runs, i only want 1 run, it has a cost of say 150 mill using an intact relic, when i type in 20 runs (simply using the rest of the RE'ed BPC) it multiplies 150 mill by 20, e.g. 3 bill.

EDIT: Un-installed, re-installed (due to the update breaking the program, and it fixed itself, but now it won't open, same error message as 2 posts up. :/)

1 R.A.M. Shield Tech


But in your program it requires

29 logic circuit

12 enhanced ward consoles
and 1 R.A.M. Shield tech

Same decryptor used in-game and in IPH. Not sure if the BPO calc is skewed, but thought i'd let you know. :)

Thanks again!

First of all, I just updated the program and overriding skills doesn't seem to work anymore.
Even if I set all skills to lvl 5 stuff like Production Efficiency isn't taken into account.

Secondly, is there any way I can specify the ME of component BPOs / BPCs if I'm building something out of components (like a capship)?

Zifrian,

Thank you so much for this amazing tool. I've been using it for the past couple of days and its just exactly what I was looking for. Keep up the good work!

PS. Check your in-game contracts

In the shopping list window, in the bottom right corner where you can see the "Total Built Item(s) Volume", the number displayed is for unpacked state, could this be changed to the packaged size number instead, that's usually how you move stuff(also can't move unpackaged ships in many ships).

Is there a way to get the app to pull in the ME/PE data from blueprints when you do the scan for personal assets or do you have to manually edit every single one you have?

Hi Zifrian,

Just inquiring as to what your plans are around the SVR stuff, I assume it is coming from evemarketeer which is not being supported at the moment. Because of this, I assume it is the reason I always get the 'Unable to update all price volume data at this time' message and get next to no svr results in the manufacturing tab.

Will you be waiting it out until the site is supported again or changing your program to use another method?

Thanks, and also thanks for the contribution you make to the community and myself with your software.

Ken

Hi,
Brilliant tool but..... since i updated to 2.1 my svr shows nothing any ideas

I'm trying to build the "EVE Isk per Hour" from source (and not the DataDumpUpdater or Updater) and it seems that you have not checked several of the files into svn. It seems to be missing:

app.config
EVEMarketDataAPI.vb
frmMineMinerals.vb
frmPatchNotes.vb

There is also a SavedOldCode.vb in the vbprj but as far as I can tell it is unused. I have tried to hack the code to do without the above files and I think they are needed.

Why was I attempting this? I was going to modify the code slightly to point it to my own market data that I collect out in null sec and add shipping costs for things I can't get out here.

I have been going through the code and it is not bad! Perhaps you just got a new dev to help you make it better. Or at least you can know that your backup is complete once I get my side working. No promises but we'll see... At the very least I'm forking it to see if I can make it work with a custom market dataset, which I'm pretty sure I'll be able to do.

I have been able to build and run the code successfully now (at least the EVE IPH component). I think I must have a newer version of Visual Studio because I was getting an initialization exception:



Which is solved by adding



into the configuration startup block of the app.config. What version of VB or Visual Studio are you using?

I'm getting very far and I can't quite run it in debug mode yet because I didn't allow the updater to run to create the SQLlite database. I tried to run the updater from the codebase and it was failing because I didn't have zipforge from componentace installed. A quick install of the trial version and I'm up and running.

Now I'm stuck at running the Updater and I'm getting this execption again like the main program:



Which is what I was getting before with the main program, but the trick I tried to add useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true" to the startup argument to app.config is not working. Again, it might be the version of VS I'm using. Any ideas?

FYI It seems this needs to have some flexibility with variable font sizes.

I can't see any of the text on the barely seen three buttons on the Import EVE API pop up that is showing on my first installation.

G'day Zifrian,

Firstly your application is great, it has saved me a lot of messing around and updating alot of spreadsheets.

IPH was working fine on my old computer, however having a problem using it on my new laptop. Everytime I go into POS edit I get the following error:

An Unhandled Exception has occured and EVE Isk per Hour will now close.
Please copy the data below for sending to developer.

Message: SQLite error

Also, please fill out the following information as appropriate:

Operating System: Windows 7
Screen or Tab where Error Occurred: POS Data
Steps to reproduce the Error: Clicked on POS Data and/or Edit POS

Still works fine on old computer, and all the settings I can find are all the same.

Any help would be appreciated.

Weird bug, both ingame and the formula from here http://wiki.eve-id.net/Equations report the following materials required for "Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Blueprint"

'Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Blueprint' (ME: -4)



However IPH reports



All the same except Rocket Fuel, eve IPH reports 4 more

Getting the same issue here, scr res at 1680x1050

Great app by the way.

Edit: oh and i'm using win 7 with aero active, i'm only mentioning this because it's a known issue with eft

P.S. Great program.

Been using this alot and have run into an issue as of late and I was trying to look in to building a Charon but I am unable to tweak the ME of the BP to see the right price for building it. The other issue is sometimes it will show the build cost of an item as negative and include it in the profit of the item of building the item. (could only fix it after I reset the settings and as far as I could tell there was nothing checked off to cause this)

Great tool, a few suggestions (Which maybe its just me using it wrong)
On the Blueprint Manager, when I select my Owned BPO's I then went in to add the ME/PE. I would click the box to select the BPO, set the ME and PE then click Update Selected. After this, all BPO's would be selected and I would have to click Uncheck All. I think this should be reversed, because if one gets in a hurry and forgets to "uncheck all", updates ME/PE and clicks Update Selected.....Well, you just updated everything. Make it a bit more "idiot proof" so to speak.

Also it would be nice if there was a Cost Per Unit field in the Blueprints tab so you can see what each unit costs as well as total component costs and total raw costs. Since ammo (for example) is sold at a per unit cost in the Market it would be nice to have this number on the Blueprints page to have a very quick "break even" point. As it is you have to see the total run costs and either divide it out OR tinker with the prices on the Update Prices tab to see how it affects your profit per hour. Sometimes I just want to know what my per unit cost is and thats good enough.

On the Update Prices tab, more selections. It would be great to have Charge Types. As someone who cranks out a fair bit of Missiles I hate loading "Charges" and sorting through all sorts of ammo that I dont make to get to my Missiles to update prices. Another good area to decompose a bit would be Ships....Let me select by ship type and/or by faction so I can choose either all cruisers or Caldari ships. Ideally, Caldari Cruisers (For example). Another feature I would like to see is the ability to simply double click or right click the Price field and update directly, rather than having to click the Enter Prices button to update prices. Would make this go a bit faster. That could also carry over to updating blueprint info such as ME/PE.

If you really want to get fancy maybe you could have it pull data from http://ore.cerlestes.de/index.html#site:trend to find current mineral prices and color code those minerals based on whether the price is trending up or down.

Upper left. Not bad. It feels a bit busy. I would like to see the ME/PE fields from the Blueprint tab have the ability to update the BPO itself as well as going through Blueprint manager. Have a Save button below the Refresh perhaps. I'm not sure of the value of all of the time information such as Num Lines and Production Times because these are known numbers when you set up the run in Eve. Its data, but since its known data I dont know if its interesting enough to warrant taking up space in your calculator.

Upper right. This seems like lots of data, but nothing unknown or interesting. Component cost, Mat cost, those are known numbers from setting up the run. Really, the only thing that would be interesting here would be "Cost per unit". It might be interesting if you could set Item cost here as well as through Update Prices, and perhaps drop Comp cost and Mat cost and replace it with Unit cost?

Using the hell out of it, good stuff. :)

Does the latest version of IPH reflect the new build requirements for mining barges released in Infern 1.2 ? If not, is there an update in the works?

edit: I loaded up IPH a few minutes ago and it downloaded a new update, I was thinking "oh cool, Zifrian's way ahead of me", but no, the update apparently did something else. I checked a mackinaw BPC I have in inventory and it requires considerably more raw materials than are listed in the IPH shopping list.

I second this.

Can't get accurate numbers as its not translating the bonuses correctly.

Obviously to get my numbers i'm just *1.33 but it'd be nice for it to be right :D

Hi and thanks for this great app!

i installed it today for the first time and everyting works great, except when i try to select 'owned' in the blueprints tab i can't see any of them. therefore i tried to go to "edit>manage blueprints" but that window crashes immediately after it opens, every time i tried.

Hey, I think there's a bug in the installer...
Seems like it always installs in the default directory on Win7 ("C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\EVEIPH v2\)
Even though I entered another directory, the installer ended up installing there...

Sorry to tell you but the patch didn't change anything about the crashes i experience when going to edit>manage blueprints

Do you want more info on os and installed program versions that are necessary to run the app? If so you would have to explain what you need, because i have no idea about that or where to find that info.

Hey, is there some kind of documentation for this? I'm having trouble figuring out what everything means and the results aren't matching up to my own calculations...

For example raw ISK per hour is what exactly? Is it the profit from inventing, and then selling the item itself? As opposed to the BP ISK per hour which is selling the BP? (how is that calculated if T2 BPS are sold in contracts?)

Then, how do I include time that takes to make copies and invent?

It was running through a SVR*IPH calculation with certain variable selected and crashed. Reloaded after crash and happens again (N.B. did not reset OS, so this may be a factor.).

happened when I set "0" at the runs field.
Also it doesnt seem to fetch corporation industry jobs... i have to admit I havent understood the program yet, at least not where I can see my isk per hour
