Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 09:15:00 - [1] In the last weeks i created a system to arrange and generate regions maps for eve. After some hard work on the backend and positioning the systems i can finally announce a new type of eve regions maps. The maps are focused to be clean and easy readable with the most important informations for fleet roaming and planning. They contain daily sovereignity and outpost informations for your favorite 0.0 space. Also Occupancy informations for new factional warfare are included. All regions maps and some special maps are available for free in the following formats: PDF Document (for printing including belt/moon count and true security) SVG (Scaleable Vector Graphics) for your real Browser (Firefox, Safari or IE with Adobe SVG Viewer) GIF Image for the Ingame Browser The website is also reachable in your ingame browser, but i suggest to use a firefox and the PDF documents which have the most details. DOTLAN Evemaps Examples: Catch SVG Catch PDF Catch GIF Image Special Combined Providence/Catch PDF Map I would like to thank all my alliance and corp mates who already tested my maps, helped me and gave advices to me what they need and how to improve them. If you've any questions or advices feel free to place your comments here or write me an evemail ingame. greetings Wollari
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 09:48:00 - [2] Hmmm the map key is on the PDF and GIF Version atm. I know that it's still missing on the SVG version but that's only a minor thing. Just for your information the Outpost are very easy to identity Yellow = Amarr Factory Outpost Red = Minmatar Refinary Green = Gallente Admin Blue = Caldari Research The station services on npc or conq. stations have the same colors as their outposts. (Refinary = red like the minmatar outpost, etc). Blue circle = icebelt and the rest should be clear :-)
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 11:01:00 - [3] Edited by: Wollari on 22/07/2008 11:01:50 Originally by: Amrumm The system layout is different from Ombeys maps, so that is a little confusing at first. Otherwise a very nice resource. Any plans to have an archive/history function? I didn't looked on the ombey maps while arranging my systems. I tried to clear most oft the systems jumps and sometimes tried to show up circles and travel routes. I'll be thinking about an archiving function for sovereignity and occupancy data later. It should not be that problem. We'll see. If somebody knows a better way how to arrange a specific region we could talk about it. I can still rearrange all systems using my administration frontend.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 11:50:00 - [4] Originally by: Viliny Excellent map Isn't refinery "refinery" though? Yours is "Refinary" Ups :-) the usual spelling errors :-) fixed btw
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 12:06:00 - [5] Originally by: Doc Punkiller Is it possible to increase a bit the font size ? It's a bit tricky. It would be easy to increase the fontsize on 0.0 maps because most of them don't have that much systems as the empire regions does and the system names are also a bit shorter due to their naming. I'm thinking the fontsize is okay and most of the time i'm not using the maps on my computer... i prefer to print them and then take a look where to go. Otherwise it's easy to use the zoom or search functions in your pdf viewer.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 12:09:00 - [6] Originally by: Zaphod Jones this is not intended as being negative, but I've reposted the main page text in a more grammatically correct english (I think). fixed :-)
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 12:12:00 - [7] Originally by: Rethyl 1) It would be awesome if you could make out-of-region systems contain a link to the appropriate page in the PDF version. For instance, on the Tash-Murkon map, the Y-MPWL system should have a link to the Providence map. I've done that allready in the SVG Maps which you can use in your browser (firefox). With the PDF Maps i've to think about it. Because normally i've 1 pdf file per region (expect the special all-in-one pdf file). There i should make a link to /pdf/regionname.pdf ... i've to think about it. Originally by: Rethyl 2) I'm pretty sure that both Ombey's maps and Serenity Steele's Eve-maps list The Citadel as "Citadel, The" and alphabetize it along with the C's. You might want to do the same so that your maps are in the same order as the other famous Eve maps :) We'll see ... It's not a big issue right now :-)
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 12:29:00 - [8] Originally by: Pronas Would be great if you can add sec status and number belt / ice field ;) Everything is already included. The system with icebelts are marked with the blue rounded rectangle around the system. Only the PDF Version contains the true security level (left side in the system box) and the Number of moons and belts are below the system in a very low font-size. I've already thought about the moons/belts before, but i won't lose the clean view of the systems connection with too much information. My focus is to keep a clear view on what's the most important thing (routing) and add as much info as possible without loosing too much space.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 12:38:00 - [9] Originally by: August Guns Very nicely done. Besides some grammar changes, the only thing I can suggest is putting the key on the maps. Map Keys are already included on the PDF and GIF Maps. I'll work on the map keys for the SVG maps also. Originally by: Pronas "Last Sovereignity Update: 21.07.2008 22:04" It's eve time ? GMT + ? Fixed. It was still European timezone. I just fixed it, and it should now show the GMT Timestamp of the last sov update. The update is scheduled every day at 15 o'clock european time (atm 13 o'clock gmt) It should be good enought to give ccp enough time to start their cluster after the downtime at 12.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 13:41:00 - [10] Originally by: August Guns the only thing I can suggest is putting the key on the maps. Fixed. Now the SVG maps also includes the map keys.

Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 13:59:00 - [11] Originally by: Lady Miah Holy crap I love you. ISK on the way What tool did you use to make the maps? Cool :-) For the technicans: Everything is done in PHP and MYSQL. I get the daily updates through the API Interface and update the database which is based on the trinity static exports with some current updates which i got from the eve board. The maps are on the webpage are drawn using the XML Language SVG to describe the Map with their elements. I also use SVG+Javascript on the admin backend to move the systems around and rearrange them. For the PDF Maps i'm using the fpdf libary for PHP and the normal php image commands for the generation for the image based maps. Everything is optimized for caching and traffic usage. For example the combined maps for Providence and Catch is only 39kb in size. I hope that doesn't kill my limits :-P I only generate the pdf/gif/svg files once and they'll get deleted when the database gets updated. On the webserver side i'm working with apache and mod_rewrite to recongnize the given urls and the eve ingame browser. The EVE Ingame Browser gets redirected to the InGame Index page which will only list the GIF Images. Btw. everything is dynamic. Every image, every map and every PDF document are generated automatically. It should be running alone :)
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 15:23:00 - [12] Originally by: Lady Miah Actually, what i'm asking is, what layout engine are you using as a base? Or did you roll your own? If you ever get into a problem with hosting evemail me, and we'll work something out. In the database i've a table with x,y positions of the systems of every map. The layout engine is my own. I'm using the image/fpdf/svg stuff and say: draw round rectangle here, place text here, draw line from there to there. This is done for every system. The result will be the final map. Everything is done by my own. Currently i'm hosting the stuff on my own physical server in a datacenter in cologne. I think it should be running fine :-) It's not the only thing which is running on my server, but thanks for your offer :-)
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 16:02:00 - [13] Edited by: Wollari on 22/07/2008 16:02:46 Originally by: Aprudena Gist these maps are ugly and hard to read and dont really have enough useful info. Put truesec, moons, and rats types in there too. Everything can still be improved, for mor information check the PDF version of the maps and print it out. You'll see the difference (Sec/Belts/Moons included). Yes rat types, etc can be added later, but are not the first goal of these maps. There are other maps available that perhabs fits better for different usages and everybody is free to use or buy what he wants, i don't have a problem with it. btw. this is still the first version of the map system. Perhabs i'll create other combined maps later when i've the time or see the need.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 16:34:00 - [14] Edited by: Wollari on 22/07/2008 16:34:31 If only some specific regions are hard to read i can try to rearrange them better. If it's the complete way how i generate the map (every system a rounded rectangle) then i can't help :-/
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.22 17:52:00 - [15] i tried it, but sometimes the maps are highly branched which doesn't help to clear the constructs. Mostly the empire regions are hard to read because of the huge number of systems. the outer 0.0 regions are much easier to read and arrange. But if you see a region and you see some potential how and where i can improve the maps please convo me.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.23 07:47:00 - [16] Originally by: Hsi Mu ... I was looking for the systems round them were always in the opposite directions to where I expected them. It seems the rule you've used for where to put systems is "Where are they on the in-game map? ...". There's no rule i used. I just tried to unwire the systems and try to avoid overlapping jumps or overlapping systems. And i tried sometimes to keep constellations together when it's possible. When you think there's a better way for a particular region try to tell me how i can arrange it better, or i've to implement a way to give out the admin interface for selected regions to persons that knows it better then me. (and i'm realitve new to eve, just over 1 year and i was most of the time in the Providence/Catch region.)
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.23 13:34:00 - [17] Originally by: Lielu Lee http://evemaps.dotlan.net/map/Lonetrek you have 2 overlapping systems in lower right corner of the map I just fixed the positions of those 2 systems. (i just need to login to my admin system and move them around ) Originally by: Lielu Lee http://evemaps.dotlan.net/img/Domain.gif on this picture there is just to many systems so they are overlapping eachother almost everywhere. i think you need to make pic bigger to fit all systems Okay, accepted. I just increased the image size for Domain and Metropolis. They have are now 1280x1024 in size instead of 1024x768. The problem with that size is, that they are unusable in the ingame browser because you don't have a horizontal scrollbar in your ingame browser. But as i said, if you really want to start working with them, use the PDF Versions either printed or in your favorite PDF Viewer to scroll and zoom around.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.24 23:16:00 - [18] UPDATE Today i added some more features. 1) Search a solarSystem: You can now search for System, the result will take you directly to the specific region map with your system highlighted. 2) If you're using the SVG Browser Maps for Navigation you can click on an external system (out of your current region). You'll be redirected to the connected region with the systems you clicked highlighted for easier navigation. So you don't get lost when switching between maps. 3) I added a possibility to add out-of-region connections to a region map. Check out some the examples: Providence Cache 4) Inspired by the new ombey maps i added 2 maps designed for the faction warfare where all related and neaer systems are included. You can watch now the daily occupancy changes in your war regions. Amarr VS Minmatar Caldari VS Gallente 5) I fixed an issue that contested systems didn't got highlighted. P.S. I'm still trying to improve the map service. If you could see strange things, it's possible that i'm working on it . It could also be possible that i'll rearrange regions from time to time if i see things i can optimize.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.26 18:43:00 - [19] Edited by: Wollari on 26/07/2008 18:45:16 Yet another fix: Just found an error that some npc/conquerable stations showed a refining service on their station icon without having this service. I just fixed the error. All maps are already updated. Thanks to Elly Starlight for reporting the issue to me.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.26 23:50:00 - [20] Originally by: gamarus One tiny typo: you have ysed the German industrie instead of industry (if that is the word you will use) in the legend for the conq. stations. You're right. It's fixed now

Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.27 10:29:00 - [21] Edited by: Wollari on 27/07/2008 10:29:16 Originally by: Karlvon Some stations are missing...example WNM-V0 in Kalevala doestn have the station icon. (maybe a bug, i dont know).And also some systems are not showing ice belts (seems for whole drone regions) Let me see what i can do. I'm working with a modificated version of the trinity 1.1 static export, i'm still waiting for the empyrean age export. There was a database error. I had 2 stations in that systems, one was conquerable (called "Rat Annihilation and Termination Squad Station") and 1 outpost. Which is normally impossible to have two in such a system. I deleted the conq. Station and updated the maps. It should be fine now. "Some stations"? do you know more? Additional i found a second bug in the database according the icebelts. i found 134 belts of the type "asteroid belt" but called "...Ice Field...". ... You'll now see the icebelts in your region too. Thanks for the help.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.08.08 08:18:00 - [22] Originally by: Tnilf This has stopped updating the sov information. My cronjob is still working. And i know some systems that have changed sov in the last days. If you think that a system has the wrong sov, let me know and i'll try to figure out why. P.S Maps are updated daily at 15:00 CEST (atm 13 o'clock evetime, 1 hour after the downtime.) You'll see the last update timestamp on the bottom of the page. P.S.S: I could be possible that your browser or ingame browser don't refresh the images. But then it's a caching problem of your browser. The database and files are up2date.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.09.04 12:09:00 - [23] I've made a huge upgrade on the map page. I've included several functions and many statistical pages about our regions, alliances, systems and the daily sovereignty changes Search System Region listings with number of systems, rat types and faction All systems of one region (sortable), including, true security, secucity class (minerals), sovereignty holder, etc Alliance Ranking and details with logo, outpost list, systems holding sovereignty System details with planets, belts, moons, minerals, outposts, sovereignty history Sovereignty changes with history (beginning 2008-08-25) I hope you enjoy the new view around your favorite region or your sovereignty space.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.09.04 12:36:00 - [24] Originally by: El Mauru What would help lots is the truesec status of the systems :-O You find the True Sec Status in the region List (example: Catch Region and in the PDF MAP). The browser maps would be overloaded with more information. I just can recommend the PDF Maps.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.09.17 09:52:00 - [25] Originally by: Revolution Rising Awesome job, I'd love to see the Ice data as well as the ore. These maps have been needed for ages. I just need to find a away to extract and/or map ice types to the corresponding systems with the data that's available, Originally by: Revolution Rising (At the moment, there's some weirdness with stations in catch with no sov at all?!?) It's not wired, it's just true. I'm watching the changes in my current region on daily basis. Those systems really don't have any sov atm. But if you click on a system you'll get more information. Example: F4R: no sov, but station owner == Against all Authorities. I think in the next days you'll see changes. (Pos needs to be active for 5 days to apply sov to a system). The same goes for a System in Vale of the Silent. The corp that owns the station in Y0-BVN. The corp still holds the outpost but the corp isn't member of any alliance.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.09.17 09:54:00 - [26] Originally by: Ombey Not only do your maps look great, your website loads very quickly too, and the sov. information is really handy. Nice work! Thank you. Nice to hear this from you, as the original 2d evemaps maker
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.09.25 12:15:00 - [27] Originally by: John Holt Very nice work. 100M straight to your wallet. Enjoy. Thank you
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.09.26 08:45:00 - [28] Originally by: Wartaro Bastardo Wollari it seems like a few systems are not showing ice belts. I will get with you in game to compare a couple. These are the best maps around, thanks for all the time you have put in I know. We've spoken yesterday about this issue already. I've to make some more checks. I'm currently using the Empyrean Age 1.0 Static database dump and in one of the systems you've named me, there's no named Ice Field in the export. The complete Cobalt Edge Region is missing Ice Fields in the database Dump. I've to check the EA 1.1 dump (i don't use MSSQL atm) and if those icefileds are still missing, i've to report the bug to CCP and/or i've to verify every system by hand to check which asteroid belt has been replaced by an icefield. Originally by: Serenity Steele Grid references .. great idea! Actually very nice maps - I really like the usage of SVG. It's the same way the universe map was created for EON. Keep up the good work. thanks Serenity. I know the idea with the grid references. Perhabs it's possible for the PDF/GIF maps, but for the SVG maps i added some things. You can click on a system and you'll be redirected to the linked region with your system highlighted. That should be easier for the onscreen usage instead of searching coordinates. But for the printed maps, grid references are likely better. I'll think about it.
Wollari StoneDogS Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.09.26 12:22:00 - [29] Originally by: Wartaro Bastardo Wollari it seems like a few systems are not showing ice belts. I will get with you in game to compare a couple. These are the best maps around, thanks for all the time you have put in UPDATE I checked the EA 1.1 dump and the bug still exists. I compared everything to the old Trinity Dump and i found 135 Icebelts that were missing. I thought they had fixed it in the EA dump but they made bigger mistakes. I've filled a bug report and i'm hoping they'll fix this issue for the upcoming export. btw. I've restored the missing 135 Icefields from the old Trinity (where the Belt Names were right but had a wrong typeID) and updated the maps again. You should now be able to see you favorite Icebelt.
Wollari D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.10.09 08:28:00 - [30] Originally by: WT Lapre Just wondering... For the daily updates for sovereignity, outposts, and factional warfare when does this happen? During down-time? I've several cronjobs running to get the daily updates. Currently i start to fetch the current Sov Stats 2 hours after downtime. But sometimes it happens that CCP is delivering me old sov data from before downtime. Thanks to CCP's great caching mechanism i've to wait 6 hours to be allowed to asked again for sov data. I made a bug report that CCP is delivering outdated sov data after and during downtime but got no response atm. Normally you can expect new sov updates around 2 hours after downtime. After i made a successful update on the Sov, Alliance, Outpost and FactionWarfareSystems data, i'll clear my cached maps, etc. If you refresh your browser or download the pdf maps again they should be updated. You can also click on the "Sov Changes" button in top navigation to see which systems currently switched hands or got upgrades. Originally by: apone2000 what would be cool is when you click on s system and it shows you the sov levels, to include what future dates will also mean what sov level, i.e. if you are at sov2, what is the date sov3 will be hit. If you click on a system you'll always see a sov history. If you wanna know when a systems hits sov 3 from sov 2 you just have to take the date when the system got Sov 2 and add 14 days on top. I'm not sure if i should add this to the list. Originally by: Adaris Simply Amazing Work. Remarkably essential and very well developed in comparison to other eve 'tools'. Thanks

Wollari D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.10.15 19:44:00 - [31] I updated the SVG maps and added a dynamic information layer. You can switch between Sovereignty, Security, Constellation, Moon/Belt Count, System Radius (in AU) and SecurityClass. The map will get updated when you switch between them. @128th ABC123: You know it's not personal :) it's a game.
Wollari D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.10.18 17:15:00 - [32] Originally by: Lavoslav Penkala That single special combined map, is that made with automation or by hand? Is it possible to get some other region combinations pdf/gif exports? The special map i've created some time ago was hand made. But i've the possibility to create other combined region maps. It's just costs me some hours to arrange and move large numbers of systems around.
Wollari D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.10.22 22:53:00 - [33] Originally by: Lydia Brightlance Since you use vectors, wouldn't it be possible to make a map of the entire EVE universe and make it zoomable? That would be absolutely awesome. Vectors are great, but then i've to create a complete new backend interface to handle 5000+ Systems to move around on a single map like google maps. I know it's sounds cool but the browser has to do a lot of the stuff then. And i didn't mention the work to move 5000+ Systems around by hand to rearrange them. It's just a pain sort this out. ----- btw: UPDATE TIME: Over the last weeks i started to collect alliance data, sov date every day. I know have enough history data to show graphs like Member/Corp/System and Outposts Stats on the alliance detail page. When i've more history in my datbase (in some weeks/month) i'll add a special page that will show a larger time period. Here are some examples: Triumvirate. G00DFELLAS Goonswarm Band of Brothers
Wollari D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.10.24 12:05:00 - [34] Edited by: Wollari on 24/10/2008 12:08:38 Yepp. The best ressource for API Background Information isn't the ccp page (sorry) but the guys from the eveDev Killboard have a great wiki with mostly all needed Data. http://wiki.eve-id.net/APIv2_Page_Index UPDATE: since my last post (which isn't long ago), I can introduce some more features Jumps, shipKills, podKills, npcKills for the last hour (also as Graph for the last 48h) Those stats are also selectable in the SVG maps Corporation Member Count (details will follow during the next days) Alliance Corp History: Which corp was part of the alliance and left when? And where is the corporation now? I can already imagine that pirates and gankers would check a 0.0 region for npc killing activity (in the last hour) in the map to decide where to find ratters. BACKGROUND: I've several jobs running that collect the api data ccp provides. Some ressources getting updated more often (jumps, kills, etc) others only once a day (with several trys to get the right information. If you get the alliance list, CCP provides you list of all member corporation IDs including the startdate. If you know start a database that updates those entries without deleting the old ones, you can get a decent history. (For example when a corp don't is anymore in an alliance it's not listed as member corpid in the alliance xml api export. To get more informations (like name or memberCount) you've to do single api call for each corporation, but you can only ask those who're part of any alliance. You won't get informations about non alliance corp via API. So with around 6000 corps you've to do many queries and i hope that ccp don't see a DoS in that number of calls i do only once a day. Sov Updates are also only called once a day, with several tries until i get a correct, recent and updated Sov Data Export. Everything else is just a matter of php scripting, mysql database for storage all kind of information, procedding the data from the api calls, compare and merge with CCP's static database export.
Wollari D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.10.31 16:06:00 - [35] Originally by: Star Nove - It seems that your Sov losers and gainers tables counts an alliance as a loser and a gainer, when sov goes up in a system. So it kinda skews the numbers For the Sov Winners i count only Systems that just got Sov 1 in the last days For the Sov Loosers i count Systems where the current Owner is not the previos Owner the Day before. But when you compare the systems graph of you're alliance, you should see that the numbers of System Shadow... got in the last days went up pretty high. So i'm sure that the number should be valid. Originally by: Star Nove - Can you indicate what corp within an alliance actually owns each station? Eve maps seems able to do it so hopefully it's not too hard to implement? I know. I can do this now. When i started to implement the outpost owner stuff i only saved the alliance names in the database. But now i've more data and i'll check out, how it's best way to show the holding corp, without split into 2 lines for each outpost in the listing. But i think it makes only sense on the Alliance Detail page, not on the region listing. Originally by: Star Nove - Can you allow the viewing & searching of systems by constellation too? Should be possible. In the last days i already modified the svg maps to be able to highlight a whole constellation: Example I Just should modify the system search funktion and the result layout.
Wollari D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.11.12 00:40:00 - [36] Originally by: Zikka I had one idea though - which is it would be nice to be able to see corporation ranking and history graphs in the same way you can alliance ones. (i.e. how many members the corporation has over time). I'll do it when i've collected enough data to display. btw. I updated the evemaps page again. - added a blog for news/comments - with the quantum rise patch/extensions, ccp rerouted some stargates. These routes are already updated. Feel free to visit my map page, check it out and/or leave a comment.
Wollari Caldari D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.11.30 00:22:00 - [37] UPDATE * i added a new combined pdf map for the region Tribute+Vale+Venal * corporation details including an alliance history (of data i've collected) have fun
Wollari Caldari D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.12.06 22:15:00 - [38] Originally by: Tjakka IC it hasnt had a API update since 06.12.2008 Any issues? or when will the maps update again? I've several jobs that're updating their data during the day. - Jumps, Ship/Pod/NPC Kills: every hour - Sov: I'm starting 2 hours after downtime and try to fetch sov data from CCP. CCP is having an issue with their api caches sometimes, and even 2 hours after downtime i'll get outdated result from before downtime. But i'm having several trys after that every hour from different ips (because of the 6 hour caching delay, in the case the previos fetched sov data is outdated). I've reported a bug some weeks ago and i'm hoping ccp is fixing this issue. - Alliance, Faction Warfare, Outposts: Are updated after i fetched a successfull sovereignty update. - Corporations are fetched once per day, but i can update only corporations that are part of an alliance. Next time, just relax and wait until 14 o'clock (eve time) :-P I hope this info helped you to get some info. Originally by: Tjakka Great tool btw Thanks If you've any questions, ideas or feature requests then please let me now.

I've never thought that so many corporation would leave and join alliances each day. That really shows the dynamic eve online has.

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.01.01 13:30:00 - [41] Originally by: Garia666 hey m8 curse region isnt fully correct. Ive been travveling around and it seems it misses a couple of gates. I can't tell. I wasn't really long in Curse to check all the gates. I'm using the original CCP Static Database Export which also includes the mapSolarSystemJumps. Would be nice if you can give me some example.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.01.09 18:44:00 - [42] Originally by: Seth Ruin And a small question/request: Would it be possible for you to cache and graph that information server-side for longer than 48h? Perhaps over the past week or month if possible? Currently those data is stored in my database for 31 days. After 31 days i'll purge them. Jumps: 31 days * 1440 minutes (24h) * 5431 systems = ~150 MB Kills/Pod/NPC: 31 days * 1440 minutes (24h) * 5431 systems = ~200 MB Just the graphes (which are drawn using the Google Chart API (i was to just lazy to write my own graphs)) are limited for 48h. When I started, I wanted to collect the data first before adding more sites. Perhabs I'll add a "more details" page for the system
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.02.02 14:52:00 - [43] UPDATE Due to the great feedback i recently added several new features and pages. Moon Mining Database: I added a moon database to the evemaps webpage. Those database covers the moon mineral distribution. The region overview page shows you the moon mineral distribution along with which system covers which kind of moons plus a complete summary for the region itself. On the system details page you can now find a list of all moons including their raw materials. This database is not part of CCP's static database export and completely based on user reports. There's no guarantee that minerals are correct or even complete. The first inital input of moon minerals is taken from moon surveys i could find on eve-files.com. That contains some lowsec systems (from the Moon Map Project) and Moon Scans from the 0.0 regions Deklein, Fountain and Querious. If you want to improve the moon mining database, please contact me ingame. I'll find a way to import your lists into my database. Here are some nice screenshots from the moon mining lists: Moons per regions Moons per system Recently Gained/Lossed Systems Another idea came from a comment in my last blog. To monitor the big wars between GBC vs NC/Goon it would be cool to see the last lost and gained systems from an alliance in the last weeks. Here we go. Recently lost systems (last 3 weeks) (Goonswarm) The get a better overview (especially for the larger alliances) i moved the alliance information's into 3 tabs. Outposts/Systems, Member Corporations and Recent Changes. Grid on PDF Maps In the eve-online forum, Teclador asked if i could add a grid to the PDF maps, for easier reading and coordination on voice comms. I hope the new layout is fine for you. Grid on PDF Maps New Player Outposts Additional to the last 5 new outposts on the sidebar, I've added a page on request that shows the last 30 outposts with more detailed informations.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.02.13 18:49:00 - [44] Originally by: Teclador I have still one Question, can you please explain whats happens with the different "Security Classes" for Minerals? I see something like F, F1..F7, or G, G1..G7, whats the differ ens Between F and G or all the others? Those Classes have been used to initially distribute the minerals over New Eden. Group F contains Minerals A,B,C. Group G likely A,B,D ... depending on the region, etc ... But it's not accurate, because ccp has changed some minerals some time ago. The number is just like the security level. With Higher Security Class Systems, you can expect better minerals.

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.02.23 18:24:00 - [48] It's update time. Extended History Stins was so nice to send me a copy of his older sovereignty database dumps. With those dumps i could extend my history (starting now from April 2008) to scroll back in the system, corp, alliance and map history. Just some alliance tickers from closed/disbanded alliances and corporations are missing. Example: Operation Tortuga (Daisho, MC, Kia, Outbreak VS BoB in Period Basis) IE/Flash Support I've implementing Flash Support for the Internet Explorer users who dont have the Adobe SVG Plugin installed. Internet Explorer Users now will see the flash version of a map with nearly all features. Only the information overlay is missing (where you can select info like npc kills, etc).All other Browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari, etc, expect IE Version) should display the SVG version of the map. I hope the small minority of IE users will be happy now :-) Cooperation with EVSCO shared killmail database You can now see the recent ship/pod kills of a system in the last 48 hours directly on the statistical page of each system. The kills will get loaded live via Ajax, processed and displayed if anything got found. I think thats s a good start and a great pleasure to work with those guys.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.02.24 08:55:00 - [49] Originally by: Sera Xise it says everyone has 0 outposts. It's fixed. Somehow i couldn't fetch the XML file for conquerable stations. This ended in an empty outpostlist file and removed the ownerships for all outposts. I fixed the database and updated the script. Originally by: Zzelle Is there any chance the various alliances could be assigned consistent colors? I was already thinking about this, but it could be a problem with the number of colors that are available. On the Maps i can only use light colors, so that you're always able to read the system name, sov holder, etc. This reduce the numbers of available colors in the first step. With currently 100+ sov holding alliances it would end with a very high number of color assignments. You'll find alliances that're using the same or at least a very similar color. Currently i'm 18 colors which will be assigned to a regional map. Perhabs i can increase the number of colors while still keep to chose colors where you can see the difference and/or try an other assignment rule, or perhabs a saved color value in the database.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.02.24 09:45:00 - [50] Edited by: Wollari on 24/02/2009 09:47:03 Originally by: Wollari or try an other assignment rule I'm now preloading and reassigning colors to the sovereignty holding alliances per map. The assignment will affect all alliances that had at any point of my history database sovereignty in one or more systems of that map, ordered by the first date an alliance hadsov. The currently defined 18 colors will get mapped to all alliances that occurred in the history. If the 18 colors have been assigned, the colors will get reused. It might happen that particular maps alliances may have the same color. This is mostly in Regions where many alliances are living together andsovereignty is switching very often (like Querious). On the other side this will make sure that an alliance should have the same color on that map, if your rollback in time.

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.02.25 20:44:00 - [51] http://evemaps.dotlan.net/blog/2009/02/25/monthly-region-changes/ Until now i had a small header over each region listing that show the current sovereignty changes of this day for this region. I found the todayÆs changes listing are completely useless, because everybody is using the normal sovereignty changes sub page. With the newly added feature that you can rollback the time for your region maps, I found out that it would make sense that you get a list of the monthly changes for you favorite home region. ThatÆs the easiest way to get ah fast view on everything which happened after you came back from a vacation or a break. Example: Sovereignty Changes in February 2009: Delve
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.03.02 01:12:00 - [52] I'll see what i can do with the larger svg maps. Anyway: Thanks again to BoB and Goons for their nice contribution to the Moon Mining Database: With the lists from the old BoB Directors Board i could updated several hundred (mostly) highend moons. I also added a regional moon distribution listing. I know many 0.0 regions are missing, but the database is growing every week.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.03.12 15:38:00 - [53] Originally by: Jebidus Skari nice to see all the new updates..However one important thing missing..Please can you put the sec status on the systems on the region maps. ta They're on the region maps. You just should use the right one. PDF: On the PDF Maps you'll find the Sec Status for sure SVG: For SVG Maps (with Firefox, Opera and Safari) you've a dropdown menu where you can select the kind of overlay information you wanna see. Sec-Status, Sov, Range, Constellation, Kills, Jumps, etc. It won't work with the Internet Explorer and with the SWF/Flash Maps. Try to use Firefox instead and you'll find much more usefull stuff on the maps.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.03.28 19:07:00 - [54] The last days and weeks I was working on a closed and secured section for the DOTLAN EveMaps. After seeing this image from Goonswarm how they keep track of reinforced posses during the Delve War II I thought: I could do this also with more information, map integration, etc. Blog: The DOTLAN (POS) Intel Manager Import and maintain POS locations Track POS States (online, anchored, reinforced) Keep track of reinforce timers in multiple timezones Report POS fittings (including module states) Set priorities DED mail import Maintain standings Region/System POS counting The Intel Manager is completely multi-project/multi-user ready User management for the project admin Different Security Roles: Write, Read, ReinforcedOnly (The last one only gives access to the list of reinforced POS towers) Fully integrated in the Region/System/Alliance Listings and integrated into the DOTLAN EveMaps This complete system does not use any API Keys, etc. just user input. I choose not to use any API keys because API keys can only pull your own private alliance/corp information and basically this ôintel managerö is dedicated to keep track of hostile pos locations / pos counting rather then keep track of your home industrial backyard. I'm planing to make this valuable tool as a rent-able service.

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.04.02 22:59:00 - [56] Originally by: Endel Just wanted to point out... When in the system view page and looking at the recent kills, if you click on the killed ship icon, the browser opens 2 new tabs to the eve-kill.net (using FF). Probably one for clicking the picture and one for clicking the row. Clicking anywhere else on the row only opens one tab. Cheers I fixed it and removed the Link from the Ship Icon. Thanks
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.04.07 08:30:00 - [57] you can look it up ingame. The Station is really owned by TinFoil. Normally a station can only be contested if the system drops sovereignty or the current owner of the station is not the sov holder. It could be possible that the station was still owned by Razor (which had sov here some weeks ago). Normally the owner has to shoot and capture the station before the station gets secured by the sovereigtny system. Perhabs Kenzuku took this opertunity :-)

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.06.12 01:08:00 - [59] Never get lost anymore After about 2 weeks of many headaches about routing and path finding algorithms (A) and browser issues (fk IE), IÆm happy to be able to announce the new section on my evemaps page: Navigation. This includes a jump planner* for capital ships journeys including fuel consumption, a jump range tool to see what systems are in range (incl jump bridges) and last but not least a routing planner for gate to gate navigation. The routing planner has the ability to including possible jump bridg jumps and a calculation for the liquid ozone consumption. To able to visualize the jump and gate routes I also included a new map that will reflect the real New Eden layout additionally the routes are integrated into the already known maps. Feel free to test it, break it and please give me feedback if everything is working as intended or if something is broken.

Just logged in on your test account for POS intel manager. and 1 thing springs to mind. have you remembered to calculate for summer and winter time ? Just clicked on reinforced and you can see when they come out of RF and what time it is. on the one saying EVE, hover over it and it says London / EVE time which is not correct. i.e now it is 12:00 London time, but 11:00 EVEtime :) Just a observation. CZ The timestamps should be all correct. I internally use GMT and then I'm using the system functions to switch timezones and let the system to the job to display the correct time. When there's written Eve/London then it's a bug :-) and just wrong labeld. But for EU people it shouldnt be a big problem to add 1 or 2 hours instead for our US/AU timezone people.

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.06.30 13:26:00 - [61] Edited by: Wollari on 30/06/2009 13:31:14 In short i've simplified the top navigation a bit (merged menu entries) and created 2 new combined maps. Blog: Site Navigation Update, New Map, Jumpbridge Maps PDF Map: Vale of the Silent, Geminate Etherium Reach, Insmother What about Jump Bridge Routes on those combined and the common region maps. Sure you can add them with a custom made URL. The syntax would be: http://evemaps.dotlan.net/special/Vale-Geminate.pdf?path=<jumppath> http://evemaps.dotlan.net/pdf/Catch.pdf?path=<jumppath> The path variable is using the same syntax of the route planer sys1:sys2::sys3::sys4 (: = Gate2Gate, :: = Jump To). Multiple jump bridge chains can be separated by , (Comma) A full jump bridge map link would look like this: http://evemaps.dotlan.net/special/Vale-Geminate.pdf?path=P3EN-E::0MV-4W::TVN-FM::T-ZWA1,Q-L07F::Y0-BVN::ZLZ-1Z::JZV-F4,EOA-ZC::39-DGG::K25-XD::P-E9GN (That's just an example and doesn't reflect the current situation) Fly safe

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.07.08 16:19:00 - [63] Originally by: Dylan Chan * When you have users register, get their API and use it to determine their alliance/corp use that in conjunction with permissions assignable from the alliance holding corp to view/edit holdings (poses) The current version of the pos intel manager allows the import of DED Mails which is very helpfull because you'll never get all alliance member corporations together to share the biggest secret (full director api key) especially on a not self-hosted webpage. I know about the security stuff. Perhabs i'll add the POS API Import/Tracking features to the current intel manager. The login on the intel manager is not api-based but personal accounts for players assigned by the master user. API logins would be to complex if you start working on an multi alliance project like IRC/ED had full rights and other alliance had an user to only see reinforced posses or only read-only access. Originally by: Dylan Chan * Allow corps/alliances to map their JB networks and save them. Also display planet/moon of each one. Check my previous posting how to create jump maps. I know that i currently don't show planet/moons. I'll see how i can work this out. Atm I also don't really want to save this data on my webserver. Originally by: Dylan Chan * When logged in allow members of alliances to plan a route using the jb network Do i really want to save the jumpbridges? Then i'm responsible for the security of this data. I don't think that many alliances are wanna save their network in my database. Linking to dynamically generated JB Maps is one thing. Providing Access to Jumpbridge Data for Route planning is something different. I would have to check the users api with every login to make sure they don't switch corps/alliances, etc. Very nasty stuff.

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.08.14 00:11:00 - [72] I'll try to see what I can do. Eso/Para and Feyt/Omnist Maps should be not complicated. To the number of regions: 2 is easy on a single DIN A4 map. 3 is doable and still good readable, 4 Regions on a single map is unreadable and very hard to arrange. That's why there'll be likely no map for Omnist/Tenerifis/Detorid/Immensea. To many systems to move around and in the end everything is unreadable. If I can add Cloud Ring to the Nothern Map around Pure Blind ... i've to take a look. I'm not using visio to arrange the systems. The Map Editor is integrated in the admin part of my page. And depending on the number of systems to unwite it takes between 2-5 hours and 2000+ mouseclicks (for moving the systems around) until i'm happy with the result. I'll report back if I can make some new maps. Btw. if you like my work, feel free to send me a donation :-)

You can now better switch between the info layers on the map (Sov, Security, Kills, etc). It also saves the current selected layer with a session cookie to keep it synced if you switch between the regions, etc. But in my opinion the best update now is the possibilty to scroll back in the history. Not only with Sovereignty Statistik! I've updated the javascript libs and interface and you can now also scroll back 30days in the history for Jumps, ShipKills and or NPC Kills. That way you can easily determe if a particular system/constellation/region is beeing used active in the last days. If you scroll back you'll get the kill summary from downtime to downtime, etc. Example: http://evemaps.dotlan.net/map/Scalding_Pass/2009-08-25#kills24 (today, 2009-08-25) http://evemaps.dotlan.net/map/Scalding_Pass/2009-08-22#kills24 (2009-08-22) (hint: those links only work in the next upcoming days, because my stats are only saved for 30 days)

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.10.11 12:39:00 - [76] Originally by: Hugh Hefner Thank you for a great service! You have statistics such as: "Most violent regions (24 hours)". Would it be possible to extend that period to say: week/month/year? Same for system and perhaps add constellation too. Just a suggestion that would make this stat-nerd drool even more over your awesome site! Not yet. But I've started to enhance my statistics a bit. The problem with everything is the ammount of data. The ammount of data is just insane (400-500mb) for the current stats. I'll always doing improving the database for a) new features b) more stats and c) speed optimization. I'll try to motivate my self to write a blog entry soon to show you some of the new great features I've in the pipe.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.10.29 19:57:00 - [77] Originally by: JirAnarion Atriedes First of all, Wollari, thank you for what is by far the best OOG tool I've ever seen/used for ANY game. Thanks!! I'm wondering if you might consider adding a checkbox to the Jump-planner and Jump-range tools, to add Highsec (>0.5) systems to results, since there are JF pilots out there who want to see how close they can get to a lowsec destination before leaving Highsec. Seems like it might be easy, but would require a re-wording of the current Highsec option, "Highsec connection(s) only:" Perhaps two checkboxes, one for "lowsec connections" and one for "highsec connections"... Thanks again for the great site. Also, is this the most appropriate place to send new moon data? Thanks JirAnarion About the jumpplaner. I can't add highsec systems to the jumpplaner, because you can't jump to them and the jumpplaner also won't take gate routes into calculation, that the final step a cap pilot has to plan. Perhabs oneday, I can add the the highsec systems to the jumprange tool, so you might be able to see what systems you can take as start location if you're on the search for a good logistic starting point in empire. Right now the best place is to send me moon updates is via email <mypilotname>@dotlan.net as you can't attach spreadsheets or csv files to evemails. or just start a conversation with me and ask me.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.01 17:44:00 - [78] DOTLAN EveMaps Dominion Edition released! ItÆs finally done. The DOTLAN EveMaps Dominion Edition is ready to go. I hope you all have fun. If you like my work feel free to donate stuff to me: ISK, Minmatar Stuff (hint: I can finally fly Minmatar Black Ops and Caps \o/) or just leave a comment here. LetÆs round up the new features and changes that happened in the last 4 month. New Features and Changes IGB Integration Support of the new javascript Ingame methods (for showInfo links, etc) New Theme which is optimized for smaller browser windows Added a æRadarÆ page which displays the current region with the system highlighted where the user is currently in. (only for trusted pages) Zoomable/Moveable Region Map (svg only) Zoomable/Moveable Universe Map (svg only) Integration in the Jump/-Range/Route Planer Integration into Region/Alliance View Outposts Added outposts details including ownership and name history Added live outposts changes Track outpost ownership/name changes Reduced API calls from every day 24h to every hour! Faction Warfare Added live changes (contested/uncontested/lost/recovered) Added occupied overview (which alliance has occupied what and since when? Systems List sovereignty structures and their states Added Nearest Locations: List closest low/high/nullsec system or closest station with $service Links to outpost details List Agents in Space Alliances Added long term statistics for members, corps, systems and outposts Links to outpost details Link to universe map with the systems highlighted the alliance is holding New Alliance Ranking/Listing. You can select between sov holding, all and dead alliances Alliance listing is limited to 100 alliances per page (including pages switcher) Misc Moved the unified search in the header section (available on every page) Merged Alliance + Corporation + NPC into one section sorted table column gets highlighted Active page section gets highlighted (in the main navigation bar) Agents in space will be linked to their right location/system Many tweaks, fixes, updates to make DOTLAN EveMaps a better world to live in for us all. :-) Background system Switch from cron-based scripts to daemons Rewrite of all update scripts and daemons whoÆre keeping the database up2date Rewrite of API backend handlers Added cache clearing on cache groups Database Complete change of all tables that are handling historical data All startDate/endDate fields (for historical data) switched from ædateÆ field type to ædatetimeÆ to be compatible with dominion sovereignty changes With dominion all sovereignty Levels will be changed to level 0/1 expect 0-4, old sovereignty Levels will be preserved Added outpost history table Added summary table for kills/jumps in the last 1/3/24 hours (to reduce query run times) Added more historical sovereignty data (thanks to exi from #eve-dev) starting now with June 2007 And whatÆs coming after all that? Sure the work is still not finished with all the new shiny stuff which is coming out with dominion. IÆll focus more on the Sovereignty Status API and try to merge more data together. Possible new stuff could be: Conflict View: Alliances which are fighting against each other (based on contested systems SBU from alliance X is attacking space hold by alliance Y, and so on Better startpage with more likely customizable features and widgets [*]Notification services (jabber/email)? (In the far far future)
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.01 18:25:00 - [79] Originally by: Welshy RL Very Nice But hmm where the Corp hing go to say what corp left what alliance and joined? I moved it under alliances / changes to make more room in the top nav bar for more stuff.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.02 00:29:00 - [80] I quickly added a new fantastic feature for the new SovereigntyStatus API. http://evemaps.dotlan.net/structures/ This list contains all Sovereignty Blocking units and all Territorial Control Units which are not in an normal state(4). Pretty nice to see where in 12 hours you'll see someone popping up and having sov.

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.02 11:35:00 - [81] Originally by: Night Spark I was wonder why the region maps have the zoom feature on them when they displayed perfectly fine. sonetimes there are People around with Reading problems and/or bad eyes. Those folks would be happy to zoom in I suggest. Btw in the ingame version the map size gets resized to the browser window size, there you need the zoom function as well (smaller browser windows)
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.05 17:08:00 - [82] Edited by: Wollari on 05/12/2009 17:07:58 DOTLAN EveMaps Domination Edition 1.0.1 or "touch that offline button and everybody knows it. After a few days playing around with CCPÆs new Sovereignty Status API, I think itÆs time for an update. Here we go. Structure Changes (live) for the last 48 hours (overall), per region or per alliance Structure Listing per region or per alliance Moved the API Updated to the bottom of the page (too many timestamps) Extended the Factionwarfare Live Ticker for the last 48 hours instead 24 Fixed some bugs with maps and the jumps/npc/shipkill overlay numbers a couple of smaller fixes around the world Finally I also added a Support Page. Here you can find all informations how to contact me or show me your support. ThatÆs all for today: Now happy hunting for onlining TCUÆs :-)
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.05 17:57:00 - [83] Edited by: Wollari on 05/12/2009 17:59:51 Originally by: Takarina You changed the structure page to sort by date and then time instead of by region. This is harder to find TCUs in our region onlining. Can you sort by date and then subsort by region or make it so we can choose the column to sort by. I can see, if it makes sense to add a special sort (by region) for this page. But it's Otherwise, just check your region: In the region list you've even a longer history and more details. http://evemaps.dotlan.net/region/Delve/structurechanges http://evemaps.dotlan.net/region/Querious/structurechanges
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.07 15:42:00 - [84] Edited by: Wollari on 07/12/2009 15:42:50 Well. This was the fastest reaction in API related things ever. http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1228297 Quote: We will be soon be removing /map/SovereigntyStatus.xml.aspx API which allows you to see the sovereignty structure status for the universe. We would like to eventually re-release it with restrictions to either the corporation or alliance owning the sovereignty structures so they can get a good overview of the status of their solar systems. The information provided by this view was far too extensive compared to what is available ingame where you should rely on traditional scouting for this intelligence data. The æfog of warÆ should be maintained here without having a far too revealing view through the API. http://evemaps.dotlan.net/blog/2009/12/07/api-nerf-incoming/ Well. The API is already down. That means no more updates regarding Sovereignty Structures (and their state) on DOTLAN EveMaps. It was a nice time.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.09 00:27:00 - [85] Originally by: popcorngirl Zoomable/Moveable Region Map - I find this feature very annoying but otherwise a very nice site. You can now toggle the zooming features. It's off by default now!
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.10 23:58:00 - [86] Originally by: aeoluse Dotlan is awesome mate, thank you very much. Thank you very much. Originally by: aeoluse For example 9-4 in Cloud Ring I am sure that the history only went back as far as Unnatural Selection from the middle of 2008 but now the history goes back as far as YouWhat in March 2007. And G-Q5JU in Period Basis shows Daisho and Evoke as having held the system but before it just showed Executive Outcomes. If there is more history, is this because of of the Dominion changes to the API? So you are getting more Data from CCP? Well i didn't get any data from CCP expect the API Stuff. Most of the history data are collected and archived API XML Files from people who gave them to me for importing them. I think my history starts now somewhere in Mid 2007. If anybody has older API/XML data i can try and import those. Originally by: aeoluse Another thing, (I'm not sure if it does it and I haven't found the button) but looking at a region map you can use the arrow button to go back a day at a time to see the sovereignty changes, can you type in date or drop a calendar down to go back weeks/months/years? Well, i could add this on my long todo list but atm i'm just fine with editing the URL G Yeah i know it's not the most userfriendly interface for that. Originally by: aeoluse Also the combined maps, have you thought about doing a map of Esoteria and Paragon Soul? Sure, there's already one map. But I suppose I forgot to link it or whenever. Here we go: http://evemaps.dotlan.net/special/Esoteria-Paragon_Soul.pdf
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.13 02:28:00 - [87] Originally by: Ten Bulls It would be interesting if we could see how the "sovereignty density" has changed over time in 0.0 overall and individual regions, particulary comparing pre and post dominion. Great site, thanks for your work. Can you give me an example what you like to have as outpot? Right now I don't know what do you really expect as "sovereignty density" result
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.14 15:56:00 - [88] Originally by: Godshelpdesk Just thought I'd bring this up: your alternate skins are bugged, most importantly, the default skin for the ingame browser. They don't seem to update any of the api data(npc kills, jumps, pod/ship losses) on the maps themselves whatsoever....Kinda irksome, especially since they look wicked kool . Well strange. The dynamic data is stored in a Javascript file. As soon as the data changes the URL changes too (to force the browser to reload the script contents). Until now I didn't saw any problems with this. But i may change this in favor to a Ajax call instead of js files. We'll see. I'll keep an eye on this. <irony>Debugging javascript is fun</irony>
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.14 17:05:00 - [89] Well i found the bug ... sorry for the problems ... caches can be evil, especially if you forget to purge outdated ones.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2009.12.19 03:01:00 - [90] Originally by: Ilyr The WH bonuses seems to be a bit off on this page... http://evemaps.dotlan.net/system/J164701 Beside the wrong amount, Wolf Rayet systems add bonus to armor resists, no? Thanks for the great site by the way! fixed. It seems some ccp moved some values from Integer to Float, etc

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Wicked Nation	Posted - 2010.01.12 22:57:00 - [91] Originally by: Ackaroth Edited by: Ackaroth on 12/01/2010 08:54:10 Firstly, furious propellers for dotlan, it is an amazing resource for all us eve addicts who love numbers and stats. I have a modest request, which may have even already been suggested, but I'll throw it out anyway. How hard would it be to add a tab to the navigation panel going to a page that shows the statistics for alliance/corp views. Your site is one of the higher used EVE related sites now I'm sure, and it would be a cool little feature to see who everyone is buzzing about and investigating/checking up on throughout the month. Basically just a big table listing alliances and or corps by a page view count. Would anyone else be interested in seeing those sort of things? Well, atm i don't count the single page counts per alliance/corp. Only the webserver log + google analytics. But perhabs I can add something like that. I'll add this to my list of ideas and sign off for my vacation :-) see you in 2 weeks.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2010.01.26 02:15:00 - [92] Originally by: Fitz VonHeise (I appoligize if this has already been asked) It would be really great for the Worm Holes dwellers to have the top 5 worm holes and the number of ships killed. (Yes it won't be very many ships but would still be nice to see) I can take the look on it.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2010.01.26 02:21:00 - [93] The Jump Portal Fuel Calculator: Mostly Black Ops pilots have the problem of the fuel bay which is always to small to do anything meanful. The fuel needed for bridging ships is mostly a big unknown in risky situations deep in nullsec space. If youÆre planning a trip using the jump planner and youÆre selection a ship which is capable of bridging other ships, youÆll get the possibility to add the ships to the final calculation and get the result how much fuel you and your guests are consuming. That applies for Titans and Jump Bridges as well. I hope the calculation is correct and youÆre all happy with the interface and functionality. Example: Black Ops Bridge: 4 Manticore, 4 Hound, 1 Falcon
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2010.01.30 16:55:00 - [94] Originally by: aeoluse I'm not sure if you can do this already (but I haven't found it when looking so it might not be there) but I was wondering if you could do something to show which systems each individual corp holds on the region map? Maybe under the drop down menu named 'Map Info Layer'. I know you can do it if you go to overview of the alliance and look at the system's the alliance holds and then sort by corp to get this information but having it on the map would be useful. As I've said before; great site, use it a lot, a big thanks!! Added Corporation to the Map Info Layer and added more detailed informations to the corporation page (like the alliance system/outpost holding list)
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2010.01.30 17:01:00 - [95] Originally by: Propesong weird browser status bar show this error Sorry, i couldn't reproduce the bug. Not with IE8 or any other browser on my system. It's hard find the bug you're speaking of when i can't reproduce it. Was it directly on the page or was it after you click $icon/link?
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2010.03.10 09:35:00 - [96] Edited by: Wollari on 10/03/2010 09:40:07 It's fixed since 8am gmt :-) This night I migrated all static images, etc to a couple cookieless domains (on the same server) and somhow this error slipped through my fingers. All in the name of performance :-) I'll see what else I can improve ... And yes there is always room for optimazation. Even it's technical or academical :-P After that I'll start with the next feature pack which hasn't been defined.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2010.03.11 01:27:00 - [97] Originally by: Ranger B Wollari, For the Caldari/Gallente FW map, there is a section of Caldari high sec (Lonetrek) shown on the map; the entire section is shown as oval, similar to FW systems or 'adjacent non FW systems'; however, some of the systems shown are not adjacent to FW systems. I'd propose (for continuity purposes) the systems Ahtila, Uchomida, Uhuhulanen, Rohamaa, Astoh & Tsuruma be shown as boxes versus ovals. This would be similar to how Yvangier > Charmerout, etc are shown. The issue is the area of Lonetree high sec is not in FW 'play' and it is thus a bit confusing to see so much high sec shown that has no bearing on FW. Another option would be to show the systems 'Ichoriya, Samanuni, Onnamon' as boxes and the other areas either removed or also as boxes, which probably follows your labeling convention more accurately. Thanks for the tip, but atm it's not possible to change this behaviour without rewriting some parts of the mapping backend. In this case the FW map is something special. All systems that you see as oval are defined in a list to be on this map. The boxed systems aren't defined to be on that map. They're only listed cause they're adjacent to a system that is on this map. If i would remove the named highsec systems from that map, only the entry systems of that constellation would be shown, not the internal connections that are behind this first point. Maybe i've to modify the database to give it a possibility to say show as "onmap" or "outofmap" icon. P.S. On regional maps it'S something different. All Systems that are not part of the region id(s) are considered outofregion system. But the FW map is not a region map, its just a group of systems. I'll add it to my internal list of feature requests.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2010.03.12 15:18:00 - [98] Originally by: Fitz VonHeise I know you are busy but... My thought would be just three systems and have the period "The last 24 hours". PS: I Donated some isk http://evemaps.dotlan.net/stats/ Is that something you looked for? P.S. I added a couple more stats 3h/24h summary and reorganized it a bit. Still this all needs to be redone aswell.
Wollari Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.03.29 09:39:00 - [99] Originally by: Jacabon Mere It seems the 24 hour data overlays on the maps isn't being calculated correctly. I see some dead end lowsec systems where I see absolutely no one for hours have up to 1000 jumps. And rash prime has about 450,000 jumps calculated for the last 24 hours. The hourly data looks correct though. Can you give me an example please? Systemname and date/time prefered. I'm saving up all the numbers I get via API. (in the database + plain xml files for the archive). If there's any problem or miscalculation I can either crosscheck this with my database and/or tell you what's the cause of it.
Wollari Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.03.29 23:46:00 - [100] Sorry my fault. In the night from 27 to 28 we had the daylight saving time change. And my background daemon was going amok :-P The new version is already written against gmt only timer but the old/currently active one was running against local time which screwed it up a bit. My fault

Wollari Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.03.30 00:34:00 - [101] Originally by: aeoluse Sorry I didn't phase my question right, I meant it gave a ranking of the corps. Sort of like the Alliance tab but for corps. Yeah i know what you mean. There's a "hidden" page which shows corporations sorted by membership count. I don't know anymore if it was included in the navigation at any point. But as I don't have all infos from every single corp it's only a small snapshot of corporation who are or have been in an alliance at some point. http://evemaps.dotlan.net/corp/top
Wollari Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.04.30 13:04:00 - [102] Originally by: Otory Rift Hey Wollari, first of all, great maps, really helpful. But i seem to have a small problem displaying them on Chromium (5.0.342.9 (43360)) running on Linux. Maybe you could have a look at the Screenshot. Thanks! Thanks for the report. I just installed Chromium on Linux PC at work and can reproduce the error by myself. But Chrome on Windows/Firefox/Safari/Opera are working fine. The interesting thing is that in the legend (bottom right) the triangle/<polygon> station symbol (with absolute positioning) is okay, while triangle/<polygon> in the station definition (with relative position/<use>) has problems. That's looking more like a browser related bug under linux :-/
Wollari Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.05.10 00:22:00 - [103] Some of you might have followed my twitter posts in the last days and realized that I was working a lot in the background.

Wollari Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.06.03 15:27:00 - [104] Originally by: Vellianz Hello Wollari, Under the NPC Corp page you can do "Show Agents" which I find very handy but what would be handier if you could add two extra columns for each agent: Constellation that they are in Security Station of their Sytem Constellation will be added for the next upcoming update on DOTLAN EveMaps. Security is already included in the current list of agents in NPC Corps. Originally by: Vellianz Why? Ok well I can currently import said page into a spreadsheet and filter it down to system name but if there was extra info such as Constellation and even Sec status where they are then I can plot better on how to raise standings by going to the best group(s) of agents together by going to that groups constellation etc and with sec status I have that choice to pursue or not that agent. There's potential more stuff that could be added such as jumps between each constellation, generating agent info as an ovelay on region maps but that would require a lot more effort than I think I could ask Wink What do ya reckon? Rgds, Vellianz Well, A more detailed agent search is also somewhere on my todo list, but there're already a couple webpages who're focussing on agents and missioning, so I can't you right now, when or if I'll add more agent informations on the page.
Wollari Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.06.05 20:01:00 - [105] Major Summer Update 2010 - Not only for your planetary invasion Page: http://evemaps.dotlan.net Blog: http://evemaps.dotlan.net/blog/2010/06/05/not-only-for-your-planetary-invasion/ Today, I decided not to do any more feature additions which I had in my head, but rather I should start writing Patch Notes and make Screenshot of all the new features and improvements. I don't want to stress you today too much with #walloftext, so I just give you this handy CCP-style list in the hands. Flame on! Patch Notes Live Ticker: All changes in the APIs that are being tracked by DOTLAN EveMaps are now available in the new central Live Ticker. Additional to the already tracked APIs (Sovereignty, Alliances, Outposts, Faction Warfare Systems), I added Corporation Changes to the overall portfolio. I unpacked about 8mil stored XML Files/API Results (about 35GB), nearly 2 years of data) for Corporations and replayed them all. Alliance data got replayed as well for completing the database. The following change types are now being tracked: Alliance changes their executive corporation Corporation gets a new CEO Corporation moves their HQ Corporation changes their description, url or logo You can filter the live ticker by type (Sov, Ally, ...) by action (Lost, Gain, ...) or filter the changes for to one of the involved entities (Alliance, Corp, System, Constellation, Region, Faction) or a combination of multiple filters. RSS/Feed Support is available for all changes and filters I'm already waiting when the first IRC/Jabber bots start to announce sovereignty changes in your external alliance chats. Corporation: Changes in the corporation that are being tracked by DOTLAN EveMaps are now stored and available (Description, Logo, Url, CEO, HQ) Corporation statistics are now available (memberCount) Navigation: Planets in Range / Moons in Range Filterable by range: Light years / by number of (gate) jumps Filterable by resource type (planet type / moon mineral from DOTLAN Moon Database) Jump planner: added number of gate jumps between each cyno, so your cyno pilot knows, how many jumps he has to do. System: Added all static DED Complexes (empire and 0.0 regions) from the local cache files (client) Added the newly introduced Landmarks from cache files as well (this includes the old COSMOS beacons) Added a new overlay filter for the map so you can easily find landmarks close to you. For details check the updated Celestial System pages. Updated layout for Celestial Objects: More Icons, DED/Landmarks, Agents and Stations orbiting their respective object. Detail pages for each object (Sun/Planet/Moon/Belt) with details about mass, radius, temperature, etc. Recent events per system Outpost: With the help of cache files and some smaller calculations I've assigned every Station (including Player Build Outposts) their calculated orbit object (planet/moon) A lot more details could be retrieved out of the cache files (including the station description), but due to the nature of local cache files, don't expect to get them updated frequently. Map: New map info layer have been added Each planet type (Temperate, Plasma, Lava, Gas, ...) Static DED Complexes(imported through client cache files) Landmarks and COSMIC sites (imported through client cache files) Regional planet distribution (already announced and live)

Already fixed. I'm to motivate myself to write a blog post about the newest changes. More to come later. Mostly polishing and improving existing features (to keep and feed my current visitors )
Wollari Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.07.12 23:29:00 - [107] Yesterday I deployed some smaller additions and polished some features. Added the infolayer to all available map formats. For PDF Maps itÆs ?overlay=type The infolayer options are the same like in the current map view Example: Pure_Blind-Fade-Deklein.pdf?overlay=const Added a new combined map: Tribute-and-surroundings Changed the source for corporation and alliance logos to CCPÆs Image Server. Alliance member corporations and a couple other pages are showing the small corporation/alliance logo in the listing. The (jump)range tool now allows you to select the maximum number of gates you wanna travel in your sub-capital ship. The Live Ticker allows now to filter by Date or Date:Range (in the URL) For more, check out the blog post. http://evemaps.dotlan.net/blog/2010/07/12/overlay-informations-on-pdf-maps-and-other-stuff/
Wollari Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.08.08 11:48:00 - [108] Originally by: Eikelhaven I have a question regarding your "most violent systems" displays. Is an archive (a few months back or so) of the data you use to run these displays available somewhere, somehow? I've the hourly data of the last 30 days in my database, after that they'll get purged. For a longer history the data gets summarized per days (from downtime to downtime). The history archive is not available on the page but it's saved so i can do researching or add functionality for a later time. Originally by: Sekhpty I am just wondering if you have noticed eve-kill don't work, it is down almost always. Is a shame an extraordinary tool like Dotlan is not being helped by that site. I thouh it would be my server who had problems :-) Well, maybe we should poke karbowiak and beansman about eve-kill if they've a problem. Originally by: aeoluse Would it be possible to have a combined map of Immensea, Detroid, Wicked Creek and Tenerifis? Or something that contains Immensea... Combined maps are mostly ordered work cause it's difficult and costs time. 2-3 regions are easy todo, 4 is something which results in a huge unreadable map, if the map should still fit on a DIN A4 paper/screen. Maybe immensea + the most important surronded constellations would make sense. Originally by: aeoluse As I am statistics monkey, would there be a away to see who was the biggest corp/alliance of all time? Held the most stations at one time? Most systems controlled at once?

But on Map only 2 system is linked. http://evemaps.dotlan.net/special/Vale-Geminate.pdf?path=Atioth::TDE4-H::BWF-ZZ With the system names correctly written (case sensitive) it works. I'll take a look if i can change it.

Sure you can switch between the info layers in the browser maps, but it's not possible right now to highlight different things. At least I can you a tip. The PDF maps always include BeltCount and TrueSecurity. If you know request a map that'll highlight the jumps you've at least a couple more informations. Do it like this http://evemaps.dotlan.net/pdf/<region>.pdf?overlay=<layer> Layer is similar to the browser hashtag one. like jumps24
Wollari Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.08.28 11:49:00 - [112] For those who're interested in my project, I summarized the development and numbers from the last 2 years. The outcome: A 40 pages long presentation aka: DOTLAN EveMaps Fanpage Report 2010 Blog Post, PDF Presenation Enjoy it!
Wollari Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.09.06 22:09:00 - [113] You want to keep an eye on your movements and positions out-of-game? You want to track your movements for a later operation analysis? You want to provide your fleet/squad position to the the fleet commander to keep multiple squads in sync or just provide juicy details to your spy master? You want to visualize the route of your roaming gang for your after-action-report? Then the new radar tracking feature is what you want! After adding DOTLAN EveMaps to your trusted page you can start the tracking functionality. A private/public token will be generated and the page will automatically send your position to DOTLAN EveMaps so you can keep an eye on your position and moves out of game. In addition to your current position your moves will be stored as well. Those moves can shown as list or directly visualized on the maps or the universe map depending on the duration of your roaming. You only have to keep your browser open/minimized while javascript/ajax will do the rest in the background. You can even continue to surf around. The tracking will continue anywhere on my page. I know this tracking tool will be useful for both sides: Fleet commanders to keep better track of his fleet and squads and the spy's for better way to update their masters. Start tracking today http://evemaps.dotlan.net/blog/2010/09/06/track-your-movements/

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2010.12.28 01:02:00 - [115] Originally by: Sassums What do the colored lines connecting each system signify? Some of them are black, others are red while some are purple. Black = Normal Jumps Red = Constallation Jumps Purple = Region Jumps You can find the same colors in the ingame map aswell.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2010.12.28 11:58:00 - [116] Originally by: Sassums Thanks, these maps are awesome and so very helpful. How up to date are the statistics about ship kills and pod kills? They don't seem to be matching what the "map" in eve indicates. On the bottom of the page you see the "API Update" Timers. I can only update the kills once per hour via API. So the stats can be out of date for up to 2 hours (last time when the api has been updated + timeframe of the numbers). The number sums up all kills that happend in hour previous to the API call. The ingame map is always more up2date and has more features (like pilots in space, docked, etc).
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries	Posted - 2011.02.15 13:51:00 - [117] Originally by: Spc One Edited by: Spc One on 15/02/2011 07:58:17 I have an idea for dotlan maps. I am missing the option to sort sov by date. For example if i want to check sov in providence on october 2010 there should be an option where user can select a date and dotlan updates all systems automatically to that date, how it was back then. This way user can see who lived there and what changed on map. Basically that's already available. If you look on the map you'll see some smaller icons in the top bar. Example: [Day -1] [Today] [Day +1] With them you can walk through the sov history, etc (incl. all available overlays!). What's actually missing is a date selector popup ... But i'm usually just changing the url then (should be self explaining. something like http://evemaps.dotlan.net/map/Providence/2010-10-01
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries	Posted - 2011.02.16 08:53:00 - [118] Originally by: Spc One Oh thanks, haven't paid attention to these small icons. But yea a month / year selector would be better to have I'm taking this for my next version .... soon (tm) ... when its done (tm) ...

The last 3 days I have had issues using the Radar tracker on Dotlan's website... telling me that my IGB Header is invalid. Anyone else having this problem? I'm verifing the existence of basic IGB Headers and the matching of IDs <-> Names. But it looks like CCP is heaving some API server problems. Maybe i should change that...
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries	Posted - 2011.03.29 20:13:00 - [120] Originally by: Gheent I'm not sure if this has been asked, as I've only had time to crawl about 1/2 the entire thread: how does one contribute to the information? The moons, ores, etc are very out of date (or not there at all) for my region. Thank you! Moon minerals are based on user provided scans results (mostly text/spreadsheets) and are imported when I get some and when I've some time (or my co-worker ). Belt ores are based on an ancient algorithm based on the security class database field. Since I've no other source there's nothing I can change. There's a dedicated Ore page somewhere else afaik.

Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Saints Amongst Sinners	Posted - 2011.04.05 14:37:00 - [124] Originally by: NZ Snake Ive notices some Sov information displaying wrong on the DotLan maps. In cloud Ring, the system FQ9W-C shows sov 0, but has sov 2 with online cyno beacons. Not sure how, but thought Id let you know. fixed. Around that time I had 2 update process running and both were messing up my sov database. I hope I found the majority of those history errors :-/
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Saints Amongst Sinners	Posted - 2011.04.05 14:39:00 - [125] Originally by: Project 69 I've hit on "start tracking" and this was the result An error is occured IGB Header data invalid (1) I've registered and trusted (yes I'm that naive :) ) I'm usually verifying the existence of a player and corporation via the API. If the API isn't reachable the simple header verification will fail of course. That's generate that IGB Header data invalid error message.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Saints Amongst Sinners	Posted - 2011.04.05 15:09:00 - [126] Originally by: Project 69 some more things from my side. Is it necessary to see JBs for both sides? (for example from System A to B and system B to A) Looks redundant to me since the 2 JBs are bound to each other anyways. Maybe a possible "owner" info on the JB so you can yell at the right corp to refuel it prolly more incoming Well ... a) you can have differnent passwords on both sides b) Since you link every single JB with somebody else, I'm not sure if you can setup a triangle ... but nobody really does it :-P about more information: I didn't wanted to add more information then needed. Maybe somebody, maybe not until I see a reason for.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Saints Amongst Sinners	Posted - 2011.04.28 21:56:00 - [127] Originally by: Radro RNM-Y6 system has sov level 5, not 2. Thanks for reporting it. I just fixed it. Around fanfest I had a really bad problem where 2 daemons tried to update the same sov database and ****ed up my timestamps. And since those timestamps are the only indicator to determine the strategic level ... :-/
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Saints Amongst Sinners	Posted - 2011.04.28 22:11:00 - [128] Originally by: trickyloki Love your maps, Wollari. I wonder if it would be possible to get a combined regional map with Immensea, Tenerifis, and Detorid (and possibly Catch or Omist)? Love the Detorid/Insmother/Scalding Pass/ Wicked Creek Tactical. The thing with combined maps is that it takes some time to arrange all those systems. Usually 3 regions on a map is max. 4 is horror. Cause my scripts and the thing behind is optimized to get everything in a standard din a4 paper for your printer. The more systems you've on a map the more problems you have creating a readable version.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Saints Amongst Sinners	Posted - 2011.05.03 13:06:00 - [129] Originally by: Ay Liz I noticed the latest sovereignty changes pages don't update anymore -> http://evemaps.dotlan.net/sovereignty The systems change their sov status on the region maps but then if you click it for details the sovereignty changes list there didn't update either (for example BWF-ZZ lost sov but it did not update the sov changes list http://evemaps.dotlan.net/system/BWF-ZZ). Are you aware of the issue and working on it? I miss that feature Fixed it. I was changing some database tables and change factionID=0 to factionID=NULL but forgot to update some sql queries on the page. The data isn't lost, it was just a display bug in the ticker database...
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Saints Amongst Sinners	Posted - 2011.05.10 20:43:00 - [130] Originally by: Radro I've found a bug. In the range calculator, if you choose Jump Bridge, It doesn't find any reachable systems. fixed. I switched some database stuff 2 weeks ago .. change factionID from 0 to NULL and didn't adjusted some of the sql queries. thanks

Remember selected/unselected state of bridge networks. 2. Make route optimization take bridge networks into account. Good point. I'll make a note. Originally by: Radro 3. Make possible to optimize route with fixed start and end point. Normally it should be that way: It should keep start/end system and optimize the jumps in between. If that's not the case it's a bug. I've to take a closer look on it Originally by: Radro 4. Session expires too fast. I have to log in multiple times per day. It's not like I store there some important confidential information, so could you please make option for sessions to never expire? Or at least increase the timer. Session Timeout is one thing. But that's for what the "stay logged in" checkbox (if you're using email/password login) is for. It creates an encrytped autologin cookie (only accessible via ssl connection) that does login you into your newly created session. I didn't set those autologin cookies if you're using remote authentication (like google, facebook or twitter) yet. I've to create a check method that validates if your access token/application permission is still valid. Maybe I should put this on my "notepad" aswell and fix/refactor this autologin to support 3rd party auth aswell.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Saints Amongst Sinners	Posted - 2011.05.13 20:27:00 - [132] Originally by: Icy One Good job on the upgrades, no errors from me so far! I have started using the new Favorites system and have started to find navigating to these favorites is a little time consuming since you have to either go to the Account Favorites page or for Jump routes view them on the jump planner. If possible I would like an easier way of getting to these from any page. My thoughts would be either a sub menu under Universe and Navigation which lists the relevant favorites or a separate Favorites menu. That's what I thought initially. The backend is done, it's now time to start working on the frontend, but my time is just limited and will be more limited in the future. But new stuff is already in the pipe.
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Saints Amongst Sinners	Posted - 2011.05.16 17:37:00 - [133] Originally by: Duffs McCurta Is there an api to highlight multiple systems on region map using the submitted url? Eg. Something like: http://evemaps.dotlan.net/map?highlightSystem=Jita&highlightSystem=Unpas => Forge map with both systems highlighted displayed. It could be used to display what systems in region have offices for a corp (just an example - not specifically what i want it for) Thanks for your excellent service - I use it daily. -Duffs Of course. Just add everything you wanna highlight comma seperated on the Url: http://evemaps.dotlan.net/map/The_Forge/Jita,Unpas You can highlight Systems, Constellations, Routes (SYS-A:SYS-B:SYS-C), Jump Bridges (SYS-A::SYS-B), Dates for Sov/FW (2009-01-01), Tracking Tokens and soon JumpBridge Tokens You can do most of the stuff on the universe map /universe/<highlight> aswell
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Saints Amongst Sinners	Posted - 2011.05.16 21:02:00 - [134] UPDATE Summary: * New (right click) contextmenu for the ingame browser (and the ingame actions) * contextmenu includes links to dotlan resources * contextmenu includes system stats on the maps (and yes they work on the maps as well) * some update on 3rd party login (autologin cookie, verification, etc) * your favorites are accessible through a quick access list (bookmark icon top right) * jump bridge maps of your bridge network! * for more read the blog. http://evemaps.dotlan.net/blog/2011/05/16/bff-or-just-a-different-word-for-lots-of-small-improvements/

Just wanted to report that the Faction Warfare pages... caldari-gallente occupancy/contested etc maps/info arent working properly for the last few days. I fixed a bug that exists only with IE8 ... (stupid Internet Explorer < 9). Maybe it's worth checking out again. Otherwise I would like to provide me more details about the errors you get (via email or evemail).
Wollari Caldari Phoenix Industries Saints Amongst Sinners	Posted - 2011.07.12 13:55:00 - [136] Originally by: JForce Any issues with the registration emails on the site? I registered a day or so ago with JForce username, but have not received the registration email, and having checked my spam filters etc I cannot locate it anywhere. There's no way to resend a registration email either - perhaps a feature to add to the list? :D Otherwise, can you please resend the "JForce" registration email? Thanks! Well, I think we're stuck in spam protection loop. My mail is still in my queue and is getting blocked by your mail provider: Quote: "said: 451-Unable to validate [email protected] with the MX mailserver for dotlan.net 451 (tested with a fake bounce back)" While my mailserver is blocking your fake bounce mail: "blocked using ips.backscatterer.org; Sorry a.b.c.d is blacklisted" I just can say your provider is using a very strange way of spam protection. Genarating more spam with fake bounce mails to verify a valid sender ... The mail is still in my outgoing queue. If you want register yourself with a different email addy, you're free to do so. You can reclaim your taken "username" afterwords with using your (limited) api key and setting of your Char "JForce" as MainCharacter. If you've more questions send me an email or evemail. We'll find a way to solve this issue.
