Miscellaneous:
Exercise Tracker has been disabled.
The Exercise Tracker goes away and I’ve combined emotions.
I didn’t prefer it when it confirmed up in 2018 as a result of it principally ignored the primary dozen years of my time in New Eden. When it was working CCP selected to trace some odd issues. And, given it has been slowly breaking for ages… one other characteristic degrading from neglect… that it’s being killed off most likely shouldn’t be an enormous shock. I really feel prefer it shouldn’t be an enormous deal that this characteristic, unloved by gamers and builders alike I collect, goes lacking.
However these items are all the time extra sophisticated than that.
Again when it landed within the recreation, in November of 2018, I declared it as an try so as to add achievements into EVE On-line and, as I famous above and can little question complain about once more just a few extra occasions, solely achievements for issues that occurred after it was launched, so it was very foolish when counting issues like programs entered. After a dozen years it stated I had been nowhere.
How did I even get to 1DQ?
This turned a much bigger query when Katia Sae completed their quest to go to all programs in New Eden with out a ship loss. Katia began that journey in 2009 and didn’t end till early 2019, which meant their tracker confirmed little or no within the “programs entered” part, one thing even CCP admitted was a tab embarrassing.
I don’t know in the event that they ever fastened that, although they had been going to look into it.
I acquired a little bit of a heads up by way of Reddit that CCP introduced the demise of the Exercise Tracker within the boards… and I hate when firms conceal bulletins like that within the boards. I imply, I assume someone on the market loves the Exercise Tracker and lives or dies by what it says. Each characteristic has followers like that. However until they hang-out the boards… or r/eve I suppose… they won’t get one final take a look at their information earlier than it’s all gone.
Whereas I used to be by no means an enormous fan, I did use the Exercise Tracker for an experiment in ratting exactly as a result of it had zero totals at launch to trace how a lot in bounties I may earn ratting semi-AFK earlier than someone got here by and blew up my Myrmidon. The reply was an honest quantity… sufficient to hit stage 5 on the tracker and earn 1.6 billion ISK.
Degree V Bounties in Exercise Tracker
Now with the Exercise Tracker gone, I had simply sufficient time to take just a few display screen photographs earlier than the tip got here.
My remaining Exercise Tracker view
That’s principally what I did from late November 2018 onward. How does that break down for the assorted exercise classes?
The ultimate breakdown
Fight is the first class… whereas business is approach down on the backside.
- Fight 72.2%
- Exploration 20.4%
- Useful resource Harvesting 6.5%
- Encounters 0.8%
- Business 0.1%
On the fight finish of issues it counts all types of issues, each in opposition to NPCs and different gamers in addition to ranges of fight corresponding to digital warfare and assist. I’d as nicely begin with NPCs and bounties although, simply to come back again to the above.
Bounties and Rely
That’s virtually 4 billion ISK in bounties, which seems like quite a bit… however it actually isn’t. That’s stretched over six years, 2018 to 2024. In the meantime, doing PI I usher in a billion ISK per thirty days doing not that a lot in any respect save for hauling my stuff to market from time to time. So my fortune is hardly based mostly on ratting.
In precise participant vs participant fight… I don’t have quite a bit to point out. You solely get credit score for the ultimate blow on issues, and in massive fleet ops that may be a uncommon proposition.
Ship destruction
I do consider the 7 deployables had been all MTUs, however I must go test. There could possibly be a warp bubble or two in that.
Out within the area I did some logi work… although, as with all of this, my peak efforts had been most likely 2013 by 2016, the Fountain Warfare and the On line casino Warfare… although I actually did get a lift in exercise with World Warfare Bee, till CCP killed all of that. I managed to rep some individuals.
Fight assist
I don’t know if defend doctrines had been favored that a lot, or if I simply flew logi in them extra. However that’s sort of a trivial quantity. Additionally, for some time restore drones weren’t being counted, although they should have fastened that sooner or later as I’ve some hull restore credit score.
Going hand in hand with that’s distant enhancement.
Fight Distant Enhancement
Capacitor transmission is from the cap chain within the logi wing. That I didn’t max that out… once you’re doing a cap chain that builds up rapidly… implies that I actually didn’t fly logi that a lot within the final six years. Most likely true.
Additionally, the truth that distant enhancement is simply 10%… I feel that’s all from making use of a distant sensor booster to Asher throughout one deployment… actually implies that I wasn’t undocking as logi. I ought to try this extra.
Exploration is apparent… type of. I imply, I went to a bunch of programs within the final six years, principally null sec programs.
The system rely
I need to suppose I went to greater than 15 wormhole house programs, however perhaps Thera doesn’t rely. I’ve been by Thera greater than 15 occasions within the final six years. Once more, even when CCP was sustaining the tracker it wasn’t all the time amassing the info appropriately.
The odd factor is that Challenge Discovery additionally counts in direction of exploration… as a result of causes I suppose.
Challenge Discovery
I did practically 500 entries. I can’t bear in mind doing greater than a pair dozen truthfully, however the tracker virtually all the time beneath counted quite than over counted.
Lastly, on sources… I’ve PI.
My Planetary harvesting
I make T2 and nothing past. I’m lazy. If this had prolonged again over my complete profession, there would have been a ton of mining. However from 2018 ahead, nothing… each as a result of I misplaced all the abilities within the shuffle and since mining in null sec in a coalition is sophisticated. There are guide taxes to pay the alliance and your company in addition to guidelines about what will get mined first and cherry choosing and… principally, the one mining I’ve even tried within the final six years was gasoline mining, and that was an entire bust. An excessive amount of competitors.
Nicely, that wasn’t a lot of a abstract. The entire thing solely tracked a 3rd of my time within the recreation, lacking eras once I did a ton of mining and business and solely choosing up once I was feeling a bit completed with the sport. Ultimately, it was not consultant of my total profession, and all of the extra so as a result of it has been breaking increasingly of late. The NPC rely stopped working for me some time in the past and I’m fairly certain the PI stuff has been damaged on and off.
Which might be why it’s all going away. The dev who knew the code has seemingly moved on to one thing else… or moved on from CCP fully… and no one else desires to take care of it, so out it goes. We lose numerous options that approach.
After all, CCP places it one other approach. From the discussion board publish:
Sunsetting this allows us to give attention to and decide to enhancing the AIR Profession Program (ACP) and strengthening ESI infrastructure in 2025. In time, we are going to make exercise information accessible by ESI and the Excel add-in, whereas enhancing the ACP, a system constructed to ship significant development and rewards. Our future imaginative and prescient consists of integrating a contemporary exercise tracker into the ACP, one that’s designed to acknowledge and have fun participant milestones and making certain each step of your journey by New Eden is acknowledged and rewarded.
The AIR Profession Program, which they simply nerfed, would be the reply by some means.
Additionally the ESI construction for the fading EVE On-line third occasion developer ecosystem… CCP sort of has to cease leaning so closely on the neighborhood for therefore many issues as a result of in addition they hold breaking these third occasion apps and don’t appear to care in any respect… and the Excel add-in that solely works with Workplace 365 model of Excel and never the Workplace 2021 model I truly personal. Belief an organization with a subscription mannequin to solely assist the subscription model of Excel.
So, principally, nothing. We’re dropping a damaged characteristic and getting nothing to exchange it.
However we’ll have a blockchain recreation and a soulless FPS. Oh boy.
