Vega Strike Forums

Hello All,

I have been studying how to trade in VS World and at the end I prepared a small web-based application called Vega Strike Trade News.

This application can help you when preparing your tour where and what to have to get the highest profit.

Yesterday, testing it I was able to keep a profitability of more than 40% every flight.

Today it is installed in my personal computer so it will not be available all the time. I would appreciate if you can try it in order to find any bugs and I will upload in some server (if I can find a gentle ISP provider to host it!).

The link to test is:


http://vwcd.homelinux.net:48971/vstradenews

If you have any question please do no hesitate to ask.

VS Team... I used the VS logo in the site if there is any authoring problem I can remove or replace it.

Enjoy!

Very handy! Even a little bit of a cheat sheet. If the devs like it maybe we can upload it to our site to take a load off your server.

And no, I'm sure there will be no problems with you using the logo... its a helper project for VS after all! In fact, a more complete version can be found here:

Glad you liked it... I wouldn't say a cheat but a NASDAQ environment...

Thanks for the info about the logo... Already replaced!

It looks interesting, for sure, but the link is dead. Does anyone have a copy of it? I can post it to my server if it's a bandwidth issue.

Yep. Link is dead. Somebody send a copy to CoffeeBot. I wanna try it!

Hi All,

Sorry for the trouble to access the link. I had a computer crash and lost almost everything, that's why most have problems to access the link.

I will try to recover it and let you know.

Welcome back vwcd have you had a look at VStrade yet it may have taken some thunder from your app.

Enjoy the Choice

Hi Loki,

10x...

I had a look at VStrade and the ideia is very similar to it.

What I could check are the following differences comparing to VSTrade:

• - My application is based on PHP, so you need an Internet connection , and it is very simple compared to VSTrade
  - The profitability is based on Product Category, e.g. Natural_Products/Food, and not on individual products (like Meat or Seafood) as in VSTrade
  - My application support trading with Vessels (like clydesdale)

Here is a sample of my application output so you can compare to VSTrade.

Trading from Ocean Planets to Fighter Barracks




Trade from Ocean Planets to Vessels



I set up the server again but it is not all the time on-line. So if you try and do not get a page do not get desparated, any doubt PM me.

For sure VSTrade is much more complete and can be used offline, and I think these differences can be included in VSTrads with no problem.

Regards

As you may have noticed there are some new categories of goods in the beta for 0.5 have you updated to the new master parts list?Have fun

Enjoy the Choice

I did not installed version 0.5 yet. The database is still for version 0.4.3.

When possible I will install version 0.5 and update database.

Regards

It's your server and hard drive been some changes for the better

Enjoy the Choice

Hi..

I'm the creator of VSTrade. I just wanted to say it's cool to see an alternative to VSTrade It looks really slick and easy to use... As contrary to VSTrade...

That's a nice feature, It makes everything a lot simpler... I wonder why I never thought about that...
Some day I might steal that feature and implement it in VSTrade

vwcd wrote:- My application support trading with Vessels (like clydesdale)

I just implemented that in VSTrade, but, It might still be buggy...

Anwyay... Happy coding...

Hi,

Nice to hear that from a real developer... if you wanna I can help you to implement these features in VSTrade as well as help to fix some bugs, if there is any!

Just let me know then we can talk about it in PVT.

Regards

You're welcome... I'm looking forward to seeing the final product...

well it shouldn't be to hard, the data is already there, I just need to present it in a nice way... But, I simply doesn't have time ATM.

I'm trying to make the new DDS compressed files load into VSTrade, It's a god/hard/large challenge... I never worked with binary files before, so I got lots to learn, before I can present anything useful...

vwcd wrote:Just let me know then we can talk about it in PVT.

If you find any bugs, please report them, so I can fix them... Good bug reports is key to a stable program IMHO.

Take care and happy coding...
