Elite Dangerous Profit Finder

[Omikronman]

Hello and a merry christmas!

I made an Elite Dangerous profit finder for the Atari ST. When you type in the market prices into the program itself, it can search for the best profit:

* find the best two starports and their two items to get the best profit
* find at the local starport the item for the best profit at a specific destination
* find any starport and item for best profit to be taken from the local store

That is the most entertaining thing I've heard this year so far...

I think it's supposed to be a help accessory for the game Elite?

Not "Elite" as in the game that was out for the ST back in the day, "Elite Dangerous" as in the current PC/Mac version that came out last year. It would have been in an open beta when the OP was made.

The Elite Dangerous game has been released in 2014-12-16.

Ah okay. So why was it posted here, in an ST forum?

[Omikronman]

Because the profit finder is made in Omikron.Basic 3.6 for the Atari ST. You play Elite Dangerous on the PC or Mac and use your Atari to tell you good trade routes and items.

Interesting! Thanks for the info.

[Mikefulton]

You know what would be even more interesting? If you posted the program so people could check it out!

Haha, good point. I thought I did. Wait, I add the zip file.
