Since I've got so many scouts, I cooked up a little app to help me explore. Here's a screenie:

    Nice. How does it work? And what did you write it with?

    looks like he just hax0red their interpretation of the code. I'd certainly LOVE something like that. I hate having to manage my ships so much.

    I wanted to get it up and running in no time, so I used the crap for n00bies - VB.

    Ah VB. The hobby-programmer's programming language. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    Okay. Here's the file (9kB):
    [url="http://b5sitn.plug.com.my/spcutil.zip"]http://b5sitn.plug.com.my/spcutil.zip[/url]

    Usage:
    Start, type in login & password, add scouts, click save, click explore.

    Ummm...I don't have a clue how to use it.
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    What you do is you start, type in login & password, add scouts, click save, click explore. Hope that helps. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    Cool!
    It seems that the "parse from give APs" button doesn't work, or I am using it wrong. Could you possibly give an explaination for this/ A nifty idea to try would to be to make it search the "list" page for scout entries, unless that is what you mean by parse give aps.
  • Unknown
    I must be doing something wrong, as I can't seem to add scouts.
  • Human101Human101 Ranger
    I haven't actually tested out the thing yet, but I suggest you get a newer copy of the file. Okay, here's how the stupid little thing is supposed to work:

    1) Run the program. Bleh. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]
    2) Login.
    3) Either enter the scout unit number (as in the URL) on the bottom left box and click [+] [b]OR[/b] go to the *Lists*, right click *Give APs* or *Rename*, click Copy Link Location and paste it in the box below the parse and explore buttons. If you copied the thing from the Rename command, click Parse from Rename and Parse from Give APs if you copied it from Give APs.
    4) Click Save List.
    5) Click Explore.

    Why not try doing it automatically? Parse the tables on the site. Load the program, go to the "lists," and have iot programmed to search for the links to the "scout." It should simply look for the "scout" text entry, and the move three or four table columns over, and read the URL from that.

    Whoa! Thanks, Human. It sure saves alot of time, even with just 18 scouts.
  • EternityEternity Elite Ranger
    AAaaaaaaahhhhhhhh You enter the scout locations!!!!!!! Not names!

    Just a thought though, mind making it so that I can make it full screen and not have it as the defult size on my screen?

    Plus wanna make it so that it don't autoclose after exploring?

    Any chance of this being updated, though? I wish It could simply parse the list. Can't be too hard, really. (I'm not a programmer, though [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img] Never was really good at the stuff)
  • Unknown
    I was wondering, would there be any way to have it delete the entries that find a planet?

    I'm quite busy lately, so I didn't add anything to the Util. But you can open up the scouts.txt file and manually edit it.
