There's a few things you're forgetting. First of all, hauling traders want to know how many jumps it is from point a. to point b. This alone brings up a whole new set of problems, mainly being having an entire solar system database to sort through and then, some algorithm to calculate those jumps. Up till now, ET has been an 'intra' region trading tool. However, It's been pointed out to me numerous times that traders would like 'inter' region trading abilities as well. While the current version of ET couldn't even begin to handle such a load I'm currently working on the next major upgrade to ET, which will be based off SQLite rather than old fashioned CSV files (yes, ET will still be very portable with no external database program needed). I can't make any promises yet but I will say that the speed improvements possible with SQLite open up a lot of doors. BTW, you only THINK it's better with the scraper. Truth is, any scraper will load up ET with tons of garbage you never trade in. Even when it did work, I shut it off and went back to exporting. Rod/Mark If it were only that easy.

What I would like to see are haulage profits between systems. For example, if I have a main trader/hauler and two alts. One alt would be at one hub, another at another hub and they could be getting data from both markets. Then all the trader has to do is to pick up the stuff from one hub, go to the next and then sell it there and then do a return trade. I would have thought that it would be straightforward if there's two market logs of the same item in different locations then it would go through this pair, and every other pair, to see if there is any anything profitable. Otherwise I would have to do it myself and, like everyone else in this game and to paraphrase Withnail, I want it now. Regardless it's a great tool at the moment and it would be even better when the scarper is fixed though I know that's not your fault, Mr Void. Tusen takk for det, Malc Well, as someone who has just started trading I would happily pay for this; either ISK when it starts to hang together or real life cash.

I think ET3 is a nice piece of software and that a lot of people are using it as tool for their trading purposes. So I cannot understand that you are not getting a nice answer in the form of ISK donations, to say the less. Honestly, I hate to pay money for a tool for this game, but if I need I will if I feel is a reasonable one, otherwise I will look for a similar tool. But I don't mind at all to pay ISK's for it, monthly, as donation, or even Plex. So come on ET3 users, scratch your pockets, this man is making our life easier and he was not able to collect but that ridiculous amount? I cannot believe it. You are traders? The richest people in EVE-verse? Well... if you are rich is because you dont expend a single isk!!! Dont let your mum be ashamed of you, please... CONTRIBUTE!!!! Well…
