AuroraMarvin, helper android for Aurora 4x C#

[Scnaeg (OP)]

There appears to be a bug in the "Orbital miner X of fleet Y orbiting Z is idle: No minerals on body left" detection. Note the first two have been there a while, but the third one (Asteroid #13) appeared as soon as I dropped the OM on it and hasn't gone away.

Would it be possible to upload your database somewhere so I can take a look at it?

Hi,

a new idea for managing bigger empires. Once you have more than one base planet for construction it would be nice if you could see the mineral statistic dependent upon those planets or bases to see if a local system runs out of specific minerals. So any way to be able to "split" the resource view on a specific selection of planet(s) or base(s) could come in handy that way.

Same with fuel, supplies etc.

Yes, this is planned for the 1.13.0 release

Tug Calculator: The one annoying thing with tugging space stations around is that you cannot see the max moving distance of the object to move. You can have a tug that can move on its own around 900bkm, but having a million t space station attached that max range can fall dramatically - and you eventually will run out of fuel with a not carefully planned tugging action.

So a tugging calculator would be nice. You can select your tug and that overview screen shows you the max tugging distance for all ships in your fleet which have no armor.

Doesn't A4xCalc already include a tugging calculator?

For SpaceMasters who manage more than one empire, it would be nice if the overview screen could display all messages sorted by empire. For select race you could add "SpaceMaster" and get an overview like this:

Greater Union
=========
Known aether rift growth rate reduction: 10%
Purchase minerals from Lalande Resource Group but no mass driver destination is set
System Artemis is not fully geo surveyed. Bodes: 112. Surveyed bodes: 59

Space Alliance
=========
Wreck of ship class Galaxy Mk.2 located in System Barnards Star
Ship Iceland 001 of fleet Encke Space Station has only 0% of MSPs left
System Beowulf is not fully geo surveyed. Bodes: 409. Surveyed bodes: 88

I'll see what I can do here.

Also: you can select those messages but not copy the text to an external text editor. Would be a nice QoL 

This will be possible with the next version of AuroraMarvin. Thanks a lot for all your suggestions!

Please ignore the terrible state of the actual game. This save was around the time I reported the bug, and the asteroid warnings mentioned above are on there.

Thanks for the report. I think I found the problem and have a fix. I'll do some further testing and release a fixed version this evening.

Nice work and thanks for the quick update!

The statistics of over a hundred years in the past are usually not that interesting. How about an optional field that switches to a view of "last 10 years" or so.

Is it possible to mix up statistical data in the marvin.db if you connect it to different, independent aurora.dbs which have created new games that have the same game-ids?

Yes, if the GameID and RaceID are identical and a save action is detected (AuroraDB.db has changed) the statistical data will be written to AuroraMarvin.db even if the previous data are from a different game.

That explains the weird data I got. Thanks.

I tried to save a ship design in the tool - but that doesn't seem to work. How do I have to copy the data in there so it stays in?

Why can't you look at the information for NPRs?
