This is a major overhaul of the Scan panel, addition of Material Trader panels, and general overhaul of lots of the program.


Major features

11.4.2:

  • Scan panel gets barycentric markers to show relationships between orbiting bodies, and gets better presentation of distances.
  • Screenshot converter can output up to three images per shot, one at capture size, and two with resizing/cropping options - so you can do a 4K capture and then autoresize down to 1920/1080 and thumbnail
  • Translations updated for Italian and Portuguese - thanks Spandino.
  • Game time is shown on the top of the screen so you can remember what year it is in Elite.
  • Search materials looks for mission rewards, and you can right click and select jump to the entry on the grid.
  • Bug Fixes - see below.

11.4:

  • Scan panel gets more visuals and a new menu system to select output. Many more options added including distance, star class, planet class, highlighting planets in hab zone. Layout has been optimised. Since the menu system was reworked all previous selections of display type will need to be reset - use the drop down menu to select them. The default is everything on.
  • UI won't stall when looking up data from EDSM - previous it would stop until EDSM responded. Now just the panel which is asking will stop updating. Rest of the system carries on.
  • Material Trader panel added - plan you material trades in advance to see the best outcome before you commit to flying to a trader.
  • Surveyor Panel gets many more options for display - show all planets/stars etc and gets more information
  • Travel grid, Ships/Loadout, Material Commodities, Engineering, Synthesis get word wrap option to word wrap columns instead of truncating them. Double click on the row now works better expanding/contracting the text.
  • Ships/Loadout gets a All modules selection to list all your modules across all ships - useful for engineering
  • Synthesis, Engineering and Shopping list panels

Other Improvements

Bug Fixes 11.4.2:

  • Certain panels were consuming lots of processing time when in a tab which was not in view. Worked through them optimising their behaviour
  • Filter drop downs open much quicker on first use
  • Mission list only updates when required, instead of on every event
  • Missions marked as failed in Mission event are noted as abandoned in mission panel
  • Material trader panel fixed a bug when count=0 of the item and you clicked on it
  • Fixed issue with grid filling meaning it filled 0-500, skipped 500-2000, then filled. The stupid programmer messed up here ;-)

Bug Fixes 11.4.1:

  • Fix null pointer access on scan data from EDSM
  • Improve visuals of bodies in hab zone when in normal windows default theme
  • Don't draw rings around top level stars

11.4:

  • All materials are now classified by Material Group Type
  • Improved loading speed when multiple tabbed panels are present - does not sit and use processing time now like it could do
  • EDSM Data pick up includes surface gravity
  • Journal Missions entry gets faction effects printed
  • Can force sell a ship if for some reason your journal has lost the sell ship event
  • Various Forms get a close X icon
  • Fuel/Reservoir updates are much better, Ships/loadouts auto change with them, and they don't bombard the system with micro changes
  • Star Distance panel - fix issue when setting the Max value which could cause it not to look up any stars again
  • Workaround for GDI error when saving bitmap
  • Bounty Event report correct ship name
  • New Y resizer on top of EDD form so you can resize there
  • Removed old surface scanner engineering recipes
  • Excel output of scan data now works out the value correctly dependent on if you mapped the body
  • Can force EDD to use TLS2
  • Asteroid Prospected prints out mats in normal info, Mining refined gets total and type as per MaterialCollected
