Trade Route Calculator

    Hi, when start that on a system with no FL installed there comes a message that you should use the options button, but there is no one <img src=smilies/icon_smile_sad.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>. Will test it later on on my other system where FL is installed i´ll be back soon

    Just tested it with Evo 1.27 This seems to be the problem: --snip-- [2004-01-19 13:56:47[Begin Erstelle StringListe Commodity [2004-01-19 13:56:47[Action SectionListe für [Commodity aus Datei E:kramfreelancer raderoute empdataEquipmentselect_equip.ini erstellt [2004-01-19 13:56:47[End Erstelle StringListe Commodity - Elapsed time: 00:00:00 [2004-01-19 13:56:47[End SektionsListen erstellen - Elapsed time: 00:00:01 [2004-01-19 13:56:48[End TCalcProgramm::OpenInis - Elapsed time: 00:00:24 [2004-01-19 13:56:48[Error EXCEPTION OCCURED - ´*fail´ is not a valid integer value [2004-01-19 13:58:09[Info [FormMain::Close [2004-01-19 13:58:09[System Process terminated with exit code 0 wulf

    Thanks so far I found out the problem causing the exception. There is a localization problem with my tool. The inis aren´t parsed correctly. Soetimes it happens that a commata instead of a point is used for floating point values, and sometimes there is no existing value for a name in an ini file. I am sitting on the solution. The error with no FL installed should be fixed :-) The code for TRC is used from my earlier tool the ini Editor. This one will be the next on my list :-)

    And here it is, the new Version of TRC version 2.0.9 build 21 <img src=´http://www.lancersreactor.org/images/news/q1267.jpg ´> All reported Errors should be fixed for now !

    Hi, it´s me again, trying to get this thing to work with evo 1.27. Well now it does calculate something and it does show some results, but most of them are wrong. Don´t know where the proggy gets the info from, but the best traderoutes are not mentioned (even if i give it the source, destination and the commodity it wont show a result). Here is a sniplet of the debug file : --snip [2004-01-20 08:51:44[Error Conversion Exception StrToFloat(1.300000): EConvertError:´1.300000´ is not a valid floating point value [2004-01-20 08:51:44[Error Conversion Exception StrToFloat(2.9): EConvertError:´2.9´ is not a valid floating point value [2004-01-20 08:51:44[Error Conversion Exception StrToFloat(2.250000): EConvertError:´2.250000´ is not a valid floating point value [2004-01-20 08:51:44[Error Conversion Exception StrToFloat(2.450000): EConvertError:´2.450000´ is not a valid floating point value [2004-01-20 08:51:44[Error Conversion Exception StrToFloat(0.500000): EConvertError:´0.500000´ is not a valid floating point value [2004-01-20 08:51:44[Error Conversion Exception StrToFloat(0.500000): EConvertError:´0.500000´ is not a valid floating point value [2004-01-20 08:51:44[Error Conversion Exception StrToFloat(1.500000): EConvertError:´1.500000´ is not a valid floating point value [2004-01-20 08:51:44[Error Conversion Exception StrToFloat(100.500000): EConvertError:´100.500000´ is not a valid floating point value [2004-01-20 08:51:44[Error Conversion Exception StrToFloat(0.462100): EConvertError:´0.462100´ is not a valid floating point value --snip This goes on for pages and pages (498kb file <img src=smilies/icon_smile_sad.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> ). Anyway I think it´s a great tool, just not in combination with the Evo mod. Weiter so, dass taugt <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Wolf

    Danke Wolf, der Fehler den Du da hast, ist für mich fast nicht mehr nachvollziehbar. Scheinbar ist es bei Dir nun genau andersherum als bei allen anderen bisher. Dieser umwandelfehler tritt sonst auf, wenn ein Comma im String ist, bei Dir ist ein Punkt im String. Das ist an und für sich genau richtig, nur scheinbr bei Dir nicht :-) Ich bräuchte leider das ganze Debugout file - sende es einfach an joghthyrn@gmx.net. Du kannst auch bis auf ein paar (10 - 20) alle dieser ConvertError Zeilen aus der Datei heraus nehmen ! Gruß Joghthyrn

    Is it possible make the bases/systems/commodities in the &quot;Choose location&quot; down menu order alphabetically? It will make working with the program a lot easier and faster.

    Finished the next build, Evo 1.7 Mod is now supported, and other m,ods should be more stable now. The localization problem should be fixed now either ! Hope so :-) Next will be: X Swap From / To Button [ finished o Consideration of Perishable goods, o Goods which take more then 1 cargo point :-) [in work X Alphabethical order of bases (gets a little tricky) [ finished o maybe (realy maybe) the jump distance for the items base-&gt;base Edited by - joghthyrn on 1/20/2004 12:10:18 PM

    Just wanted to let everyone know that I have tested this with the terra empire mod phase1v1 and it works just fine <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Keep up the good work, will make my modding job a little easier too <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> James &quot;Quickshot14&quot; Greenwood&lt;br&gt; QSD (Quickshot14´s Domain http://qsd.rgprod.net)&lt;br&gt; Also Home of QFL &amp; QWC (Quickshot´s Freelancer &amp; Warcraft 3 Site)

    Ist es möglich, das man per Optionen einige Güter herausfiltern kann? zB mit dem Rebalance Mod zeigt er dir den Pirate Escape Pod als Güter an, aber kaufen kann man ihn logischerweise nicht <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Und macht man dann eine umfangreiche Suche, sind die ersten Ergebnisse immer jener Pod.... ein wenig nervig <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Grüsse

    I´m getting all kinds of errors w/ evolutions 1.28. the bases are not in alphabetical order, when you radio button the commodities instead of all your only choice is ´1´ . no mention of the new commodities. I get the exception errors &quot; TRC has encountered an exception error. to continue on press ´yes´ otherwise press ´no´ to exit. so I press yes. then when I´m running a planet Honshu to Honshu system check, I get another error just like before and in pressing ´yes´ the check just stops. what it generated is still up there, but it´s unfinished. also, it takes FOREVER to load up. deleting the temp file time is obnoxious. just wondering if there is some coding stuff you could do to speed that up. I remember when Data Storm did a re-code/code clean up and the read time dropped by about a 5th. love the tool in that it´ll read the mods. it just needs tweakin´ for a latest and greatest. plus the fact no one else has put out one since yours. you´re it! thanks for your efforts. lord knows I couldn´t do this.

    Long time since... As I told everyone contacting me, I lost all my sources in a drives crash. This is why I didn´t recode anything :-) Problem is to parse all neccessary ini files everytime again, when a mod is activated. All theese steps need a big big amount of time. I have to parse which files are for the mod, parse which files are the used files, read the dll files, check for inconsitencies, unify the values, as some inis are . encoded, sme are , encoded. After all of that I have to read the infos on comos and prices from bases and cross link them all. Thus would need a piece of time ;-) Its not the same as to read the infos once and safe them to a database. Yours Joghthyrn

    I guess that for Evolutions the Trade Calculator will remain pretty much useless until the Faction based dynamic reputation filter is done. All I get is Civilians as a trade item. (no rep check on them) Can´t you default it full good rep?? Edited by - Frobozz on 11/21/2004 10:01:14 AM

    Hey ho(testing against an evo 1.28 patched background) Aside from the comments I made in my last email. btw - only showing civilians/prices I changed back to version 1 afterwards and ran it (v2.1.10). I expected to be able to compare the data to an earlier tool called FCC somewhere here. anyway , straight off the bat the NY to NY prices were off. <img src=smilies/icon_smile_sad.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> sorry dude. We have a WTS server one of the guys is test on too - let u know how that goes.

    Thanks for the tip :-) Finally it had been the problem with Reputation. I disabled the form control for reputation, but did not disable the check in the calculating routine. Now it should ignore it completely and calculate any commo - no matter the reou value. The filter for faction based repus will take a while, as I redo the complete calculation interface - it will be a wizard in the upcoming version. Hope that fix now works better - if not - I still need some REAL values from out of Freelancer itself. I dont have the time to fly the routes and verify them !
