Krelnett_of_Kraan Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 Pretty cool, although there seems to be a consistent typo everywhere the word "calculate" appears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hobknob Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 Thaks Crestvel, I will try it out ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-t-akua Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 Cestvel, does this work with Graphviz? Morgwen, I have around 30+ systems and I have been playing for a year so if you explore hard you will find the number of systems will grow quickly.

Drasn Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 Cestvel, does this work with Graphviz? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Cestvel, forgive me for speaking out of turn, and correct me if I'm wrong. Ali, this is a stand alone program that works off of your .mdb data file from Rolling Thunder. It has nothing to do with GraphViz. You can use GraphViz to generate a visual of your part of the galaxy, but you will use this app to find the shortest path between systems. It's of somewhat less use to someone with only a few systems explored, but I don't know how you would live without it once your map grows very large. Try this out ASAP! Very cool! Very easy to use! Very useful! And very free! Thanks Cestvel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cestvel Posted June 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 Cestvel, does this work with Graphviz? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Drasn said it all (thanks). I was thinking of adding an export feature to a dot-file. More support would be real work, as this is only a small tool, which took only minor work sor far, but incorporating a call to graphviz would be much more configuration work. The Exporting feature would only free you from entering the Warppoint and systems once. But I do not see the need of this on an ongoing basis. So I decided, not to do something like that. But feel free to make suggestions, of how you would like to see it combined with graphviz. Cestvel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put the spreadsheet down and step away slowly. This is your only warning. You will go to lunch now, and we will "fix" your computer for you. Why don't you have a nice, relaxing glass of mead with your pasta? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enhance current functionality if needed. But don't add new features without really strong justification. It's a relatively perfect tool as is.

It seems fine as is so i don't see any need to add any further features to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Uriel Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 Mmmm, mead. Pasta. Mmmm. Yes, I figured it had something to do with the kill-joys here on my end. They even blocked Ebay! I'll check it out when I get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ok, I hope you are refering to the exe in the zip ;^) the program uses the jet library which is also used by the entry-program. It should work on the same PC where your entry program runs. On others it may lack libraries. I have even tried it on other PCs, but these where were at least Windows XP boxes. The download, if this is your problem, should work fine, just tried it. Cestvel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
