Mactan Network Tools - Feedback, etc.

[darkwind]

[...]

Because that introduces a manual element that requires maintenance and introduces failure points.

Weird, that mactan is not automated

Minor suggestion:

Would it been possible to rename gunboat/transport entries to their respective name like it's done for fighters?

E.g.:

Looking for a 'Pelican', I've to know, that's the 'Armored Transport'
Same for 'Hercules', 'Albatros', 'Corvo', 'Scarab', 'Stork' and so on...

I am creating a new online tool in the form of a website, which will work like... well many tools tbh, and all in automated way.
I'll record this thing to remember

The Mactan Network is extremely automated, but what @rwx requested would be that the network reads the mod files and, instead of using the designated in-game name for a ship, parses the infocard and detects the second name of the ship. Or that we do so manually.

In any case, your post didn't actually have any feedback, corrections or requests for us. Go away.

[TAZ] lost their officialdom and hence should be removed from the official faction IDs list
PF- ID does not show any tech cell
Office of Confederal Intelligence is discontinued, should be removed from the independent factions list
Why there is a Nomad / Khara / Nomad Trial if Nomad and Nomad Trial exist separately?

[The Lane Hackers]

1. Done. We had been waiting for them to come off the tracker.
   
2. An error exists in the techcompat.cfg whereby both PF- and DSE) have two item parameters, and Mactan doesn't know how to chew that.
   
   
   Code:

   [faction]
;Planetform, Inc.
item = dsy_license_pf_20_grp
item = dsy_license_co_ti_grp
   
   An edited version of techcompat.cfg has been provided to Mactan to update the PF- and DSE) IDs.
   
   
3. Done.
   
4. The overrides were outdated and have been corrected.

Thank you!

Why Compatibility Calculator and Transponder Spoofer lack "Gallic Royalists"?

[The Lane Hackers]

Because the Gallic Royalists recruited very heavily from the Gallic Junker population.

Fixed! Please continue to provide even simple feedback like this if you notice something astray as it is sometimes an easy fix.

Independent IDs have A/)-ACV-Achlys listed there - probably better merge it with Auxo (OF) ID or simply invis it out - since its an SRP ID
Same about Grey.Evans - SRP ID

Tech compat just needs to be updated, really.

Are there any plans to update tech compact chart in mactan again?
The current sheet is extremely annoying to navigate in (it's linked in in player utilities)
