ED New Mob/Ore Chart Feedback

[MorbidX]

OK so ive got bored and decided to pretty up the horrid ED mobcharts with something that would actualyl look nice if printed out.

Can i get some feedback before i do the other 15 domes using the template i have

Info for domes 1-5 is current

I guess if I had anything to say is all the stuff on the left is too big, it uses up as much space as the useful info on the right.

Some of the indicator bars are a little difficult to read so if you reduced all the 'useless' stuff on the left, the details we actually want might be a bit clearer if you used this space and enlarged them a bit.

define the details which ones?
i had to do the mob info as such to get it within a "vieable page size"

The old version is much easier to read. When I look at ED I want clearly presented information, not fancy graphics.

Graphics is not really an issue. Lack of updates is much serious problem though. You could say that everyone is responsible for that, and yes, i agree.
BUT. ED uses a very difficult to comprehend formating language, and i have honestly tried to update a few things, but just couldn't get it done without devoting at least a few days to learn that damn thing.

Imho it should be done as Entropedia, easy to update and clean. You don't have to dig through the source code to update a loot from creature, to add new one, or to create a new BP. Or anything else, everything is user-friendly and straightforward.

So, that's the problem. If you have only a few people with access rights and who are masters of whatever backend that you're using, project will run into problems over time, because people can easily go inactive. It should be accessible to be updated to as many users as possible.

Well using the template i have for the images its now easy for me to update MY version.


The wiki format on the exisitng ED page is a nightmare to edit and u need to edit grpahics anyway.


I just tried to add Info with something that looks nice.

Personally i dont think you need to inculde the owner info, tax info and location:cnd info for every dome, just have it at the top or at the bottom for each group of five domes, as at the end of the day all 20 domes are on cnd, all are owned by ND and each group of five domes will have the same tax afaik.
