Release 2.0.1

This release includes some display improvements and optimizations.

Display Improvements

• Hide the full scrollbox and system value display when we have no system data
• Fix star calculations erroneously including a mapping bonus in the maximum value
• Condense the system value display when you have fully scanned/mapped the system

Other

• Minor optimizations to value assignments

ExploData

• Optimize database during shutdown (run VACUUM command)

Version 2.0

ExploData Database Handler

The persistent database used in BioScan has been migrated to a multipurpose shared plugin / module and integrated into Pioneer. You data will persist between systems and across sessions. For best results, run the journal import in the settings pane. You should do this even if you've used BioScan previously.

Please review the installation instructions.

Other Changes

• Fix Herbig Ae/Be typo
• EDSM parsing temporarily removed (you can do this in BioScan though it will not immediately update Pioneer's display)
• Improved non-body tracking
• Better NavBeacon data handling

ExploData 1.0.2

• Fixes for some possible migration issues

Release 1.2

This is a small release to add a few improvements and fixes. It also includes a minor refactor of the code to bring it to EDMC 5.7+ / python 3.11 standards.

• Formatting corrections
• Display name for main star (e.g. A) if it exists or simply 'Main star'
• Add various identifiers to the body lists:
  • Valuable list has shorthand codes for body type (HMC, R, WW, etc.)
  • <TC> indicates a candidate for terraforming
  • >S< indicates the body was previously discovered
  • >M< indicates the body was previously mapped
• Change method to detect main star
• Change method to detect system change (should handle dying, travel by fleet carrier)
• Updated settings pane
• Sort detailed list by body ID rather than distance

Release 1.1.1

Minor fixes:

• Correct carbon star modifier descriptions
• Fix scrollbox scroll-to-top on jump
• Use 0 for unknown star subclass

Release 1.1.0

Version 1.1 Changes and Additions

Note: There are new files in this release that need to be added alongside the load.py. Make sure to extract everything.

Major Additions

• EDSM data fetching
  • Optionally get body data from EDSM
  • Choose when jumping to a system or honking a fully scanned system
• Additional body data
  • Descriptive body types for stars and planets
  • Indicator for terraforming candidates
• Expanded settings to toggle various features

Other Changes

• Add 4.0 clients to odyssey value bonus
• Better labels for settings
• Significant refactoring
  • New body data model to make adding data simpler
  • Move a lot of helper code out of the main load.py
• Minor Fixes
  • Allow calculator to parse Sagittarius A*
  • Improve handling of navbeacon scan data
  • Better handling of unexpectedly missing info

Release 1.0

Basic Features:

• Display calculated values of all scanned / mapped bodies in a scrollable list, including the final value of the main star (honk bonus included)
• Estimate current and maximum possible value for the system
  • Values factor in any existing scans and maps by other commanders
  • Includes mapping bonus for efficiency, and additional bonus on Odyssey and 4.0+ clients
  • Factors in 'fully mapped' and 'fully scanned' bonuses for a completely unscanned or unmapped system
  • Rough ranges are displayed for terraformable bodies to account for the variable 'terraform bonus'
• Display when the system has been 'honked', fully, scanned, and fully mapped (H) (S) (M)
  • Additional indicator if the system was completely unmapped and unscanned (S+) (M+)
• Configurable list of 'high value' unmapped bodies - target credit amount can be set in the settings
• List of unmapped bodies with detected biological signals and the number of signals

As EDMC does not retain historic data, this tool is mostly useful for unvisited systems. Your mileage for visited or 'pre-explored' systems may vary. System data will be lost after jumping.
