As an Industrialist, I have been moaning for years (many years!) about the lack of distinction between BPOs and BPCs. I know I have sold at least one BPO by mistake in the past, thinking it was a BPC.
I have never really understood WHY CCP kept saying it was too complicated. I mean, you just change the colour, what's so difficult about that?
So, I appreciate the explanation and with it, the understanding.
Thank you |

I typically don't use any of the options to display icons (I prefer the lists, so I can sort by type or name). Can you have the item type column differentiate between blueprrint copy and blueprint original? Sometimes I want to put all originals back in their storage without sorting through a hundred icons.
Thanks!

I may not be in the right place but have one question why is my tengu still flying backwards. I have not used it since the last update which I understood fixed that problem. |

Try clearing your cache in the Eve client. IIRC that is what they were advising for people with the flying backwards problem.

I just stumbled on this dev blog and I must say I apreciate the effort. It reduces my "Show Info" clicks by a magnitude.
However, the way you solved it appears to be way to complicated. A basic rule in database programming is you never ever use the same ID for records that do not share ALL properties. Doing so forces you to create all sorts of work arounds and tinkering just to make it work - as you so elaborately explained. It also is a surefire way to generate trouble when you wish to modify the properties or the code again. If, for reasons I don't know, you insist on keeping a shared typeID you could have linked the isCopy property to the itemID - one more boolean column in the item table won't generate that much more traffic. Changes to the code would also have been quite easy to handle.
Just my two cents...

Very cool. It's amazing the amount of work it can take for something so simple. I often say to myself "wouldn't it be cool if the game did 'this'?" but then realize it might take a whole hell of a lot of work to make it happen no matter how easy it may seem on the surface  |
