omniscanner's Introduction

OmniScanner (DEPRECATED - NOT SUPPORTED ANYMORE)

OmniScanner has been decommissioned.

~~An EDMC plugin for scanning commanders and getting their background info.~~

About

OmniScanner is a plugin for scanning commanders and get their background profiles from Inara and from the [Ronin of Amarak (ROA) PVP Database][1].

Usage

OmniScanner works only when another player is scanned (obviously), after the scan is complete you will receive any info found on Inara or on ROA DB.

Only open mode is supported, this plugin is deactivated solo mode and private group mode.

Example response in EDMC

Inara

Red is for combat rank.
Yellow is for trade rank.
Blue is for exploration rank.
Role in Inara database.
Etc.

ROA

Clan name (could differ from Inara).
Last update shows when the record was updated for the last time.
Combat Logger if the scanned commander is a know combat logger.
Kill on Sight for people flagged by ROA.

Example response using EDMCOverlay

Installation

Run the the installer for the latest version.
If you want to use the overlay you have to install EDMCOverlay too and enable Use Overlay in OmniScanner settings.
Restart ED Market Connector and pray the Great Attractor.

Overlay limitations

Supports only 64bit Elite:Dangerous (Horizons) on Windows only.
No Apple support.
"Windowed" or "Borderless Fullscreen" mode only, Fullscreen is not supported.

Features

Full Inara profile with public data.
[ROA][1] profile with KOS and combat logging commanders.
Customizable onscreen TTL (Time To Live) for the overlay.
Customizable date format with normal UTC and Elite UTC (330x years).
Automatic deactivation when deploying hardpoints.
Commander tracking for combat loggers (highly experimental, not public).
Customizable GUI and overlay through config file omniscanner.ini.
Scanner history with the latest 15 scans, you can configure the history length by changing the parameter log_len in omniscanner.ini.

Customization

log_len: the length for the history log, you shouldn't use a value higher than 50 to avoid the GUI to start acting funny, default is 15.
width: The width of the output text area for the EDMC GUI, default is 30,
height: The height of the output text area for the EDMC GUI, default is 15.
font: Font type for the output text area.
size: Font size for the output text area.

Commander Tracking

As an experimental feature, if you scan a commander that is flagged by ROA DB as Combat Logger or is in ROA KOS list, the position of the scanned commander will be logged and saved until another commander will update that entry with another scan.

Being an experimental feature these info will not be usable for now but only used for testing and see how it goes with a small/medium userbase.

Versions

0.4.0: Add EDMC Gui and multiple improvements.
0.3.0: Add status message on EDMC panel.
0.2.1: Update EDMCOverlay version.
0.2.0: Customizable configuration for overlay.
0.1.1: Add startup message with version check.

omniscanner's Issues

I can't seem to start it up

I installed it, and ran the EDMCoverlay.exe from the "C:\Users\jorns\AppData\Local\EDMarketConnector\plugins\OmniScanner\EDMCOverlay" folder as administrator. started EDMC, but it doesn't recognize it :(

Anything I might be doing wrong?

Documentation for deployment from source lacking.

I wanted to alter the code to not require stowed weapon and to expand it to use a command to look up any commander.

However, trying to 'compile' this, I ran into the issue of the myNotebook module not existing.
I can't seem to find it, and googling it gives me only jupyter notebook results.
Nowhere in your project are the requirements documented to use theese things, how to make the python files into pyo files or anything of the sort.

So I changed load.py as such and now want to use those changes. how do I go about doing so?
