Multiple destinations - Route planner

Postby Bomber » Tue Feb 09, 2016 12:47 pm

Hi Cmdrs,

Just wondering if there is a better way or an app to plan a multiple route journey?
I'm currently at Robigo and pick up several missions.
Other than manually picking each station I was wondering if anyone has a 'tool'/method to plan/plot a route to pick up all stations ending back at Robigo?

We've been asking FD for a waypoint planner in the galaxy map since before version 1.

Aye it would be a good wee project for someone with the know-how to create an app.
One that takes into consideration the ships jump range, plus cargo, plus the time limits for each mission.

I'm sure I've seen one that someone developed on a website somewhere. It was all flash and wobbly (sorry for the techie speak).

Trying to remember where I saw it...

Do you mean that TD helper application itself is not updated in a while or the update db button in it? At least version 1.0.7.6 of TDHelper works fine for me, and with the latest tradedangerous "script" there are no errors or warnings either when updating db.

When I click the "update DB" button, the program starts processing but gives an error message (warning: import prices unrecognized item name" followed by the name of the item (eg. Bootleg liquor). It seems it does not recognize the new items since Horizons.

Let it run just now for 40 minutes and was still going at it.

I had that very same with the old version of the tradedangerous, with the newest version the problem is gone.

Last update I did today took just under 2 minutes and no unrecognized items.
