Are the stats of the Domination Large Armor repairer not correct in Pyfa? Ingame it says activation cost is 360GJ, Pyfa says 360, too, in the items info, but in the list of fitted items in my Abaddons fit it says 320. ---

Importing characters into Pyfa: in what Eve game sub directory do I look for the file that Pyfa wants for info on my character? It is looking for an xml file I believe and I don’t see any. ---

From their repository: > **[Releases · pyfa-org/Pyfa](https://github.com/pyfa-org/Pyfa/releases)** > > Python fitting assistant, cross-platform fitting tool for EVE Online - pyfa-org/Pyfa Download the version you need (they have installers for Windows and Mac, source for Linux) and install it like any other application. You can link it to your account and characters and it load their skills and allows import and export of fittings from the tool to the game. A very nice bit of work. The PYFA developers should be commended for it. ---

Resolved. Yes, you just download the files on top of the old ones. It saves your fits. Also, PYFA is fantastic in a way I never realized before. Abbreviations work with module search! XLASB yields the X-Large Ancillary Shield Booster, the number 2 can be substituted for II, and even old module names work. DCU 2 yields, incredibly, Damage Control II, and typing Invuln pulls up Multispectrum Shield Hardeners, which used to be called Adaptive Invulnerability Fields. While more specific modules like RFMSE don’t work, categories like LSE for Large Shield Extenders do. ENAM 2, a corruption of EANM II, which is an abbreviation of the old module Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane II, still amazingly results in the Multispectrum Energized Membrane II being offered. ---

Is there currently a way to find out how much missile damage would be applied to a drone shot at during MWD transit, and/or how much damage said drone would take when orbiting? If not, could this function be added? I’d like to be able to figure out if I can kill a kiter’s drones before they kill me or if I should just warp away. I tried to add a Hobgoblin II as a target for the damage graphing and couldn’t seem to find a way. ---

In general it would be very nice if we could just manually insert a targets Signature and Speed and get a graph how Missile Damage would apply. ---
