Had to install it separately from the 0.2 version. Will each version have to be done like that?

After 0.3 any future updates can likely be done by just overwriting everything in the folder. I can try to throw together an auto-updater in the future, but with 0.3 it does at least check for new versions automatically.

I'll be putting out the next update on Jan. 20 for the change in ceasefire windows.

It's on my list of things to do.

Krivvan, I knew you would be working on something like this you nerd.

Seriously though, thanks for doing this for all of us, community created resources for this game are pretty awesome.

Just one bit of feedback though, it would be nice if you could resize the window to view more information at once. It seems like you can only view 4 planets being attacked and defended at once, if there is a way to change this please let me know.

Just to note, the current status feature will work just fine after the Jan. 20 ceasefire period change patch. The historical timeline feature, however, will be broken after that patch and I'll be putting out a new version to address it on that date.

Awesome, I have this running on a side monitor all day while I'm at work.

Haha, I actually kept the main window free of images or anything fancy partially so it appeared more work-like.

Feature Suggestion: Any way you can add a timer until the next ceasefire? Many times we are queued up or in a match and cannot see how long we have until the ceasefire. It would be greatly beneficial.

Much less minor suggestion: any way we can set the default faction to something other than "All Factions"?

I'll see about the timer. Would be simple to add a line in the text box mentioning it, but I don't currently have any place for it that isn't a little awkward. I'll see about it. Would simple messages in the box an hour before ceasefire help? (1 hour to ceasefire, 45 minutes to ceasefire, etc.)

I can have something for default settings yeah. I was planning on adding a few more features before it'd be worth it to have a settings file.

As long as it gave messages more often as the ceasefire drew near, that would work. For instance, it would not need any notices until about an hour before ceasefire. Then, it could give a notice at t-minus 30 minutes, then t-15, t-10, t-5, t-4, t-3, t-2, t-1, CEASE.

Seems like it would be simpler to just have a timer, but you are the one making this, so I differ to your experience and I will go back to my couch, lol.

New version released (along with a "hotfix" of sorts).

Widgets are now resizable and a plot of win history for a planet can be opened by double-clicking the entry on the table.

Great change on the updating process!

How do you resize the widgets?

You can resize the overall window (only vertically), or when you show the faction map you can adjust the amount of space the tables or the map takes.

Gotcha. I was trying to drag the corners of each field. Had to find the "sweet spot" above the map. Awesome!

If this were polished up using the in game star map colors and ui style, it would be great to see this in game and used out of game as well. In game it could be something to check out while waiting for a drop etc. Either way using the in game style and colors would really make it shine I think.

[JackkyChan]

Nice work OP.

Now I see on the map a huge battle going on with all 1000 active CW players on this planet below I think all the other planets are uninhabited at the moment hahahaa.

[Cimarb]

I just noticed that CGB shows as having 6 defense planets. It is showing Elissa (Wolf) and Hermagor (FRR), which we are not currently defending, in addition to the 4 we ARE currently defending.

I thought it might be just because I leave it running 24/7, but even closing it out did not fix the bug.
