I whant to make some spreadsheet to easy control production but Im total noob in exel etc.
can anyone can give me some examples or sell working tools for isk. looking for nothing complicaded. Just online prices for minerals needed, sell price etc.
@MacGregor_Ortis I would suggest that you seriously consider taking a look at EVEIPH now, even if it’s just for your T1 stuff, would give you some experience and build some familiarity with the program that would only help you when you transition into your T2/T3 industry.
Sorry for that all noob questions but Im just starting and all that informations is like mind blow to me.
Anyway, what is best configuration to look for prices in EVEIPH? I mean min/max per minerals/products. Now all my minerals for industry mine on my own, so looking for best config to see what is bether. Go for industry or sell minerals. My current market is The Forge region (if that mathers).
In IPH you should download the Min Sell prices unless you intend to put up and maintain Buy orders, in which case Max Buy is better.
For a manufacturing spreadsheet what you are aiming to do is replicate what IPH does, find the current ISK/hour and other rates. When I started constructing my spreadsheet IPH didn’t do what I wanted, display a list of my Blueprints in ISK/hour order. Now it can!
However it’s no great effort to keep the spreadsheet running, so I use IPH for cross checking. If it strongly disagrees with me, most likely I’ve made a typing error. Meanwhile the spreadsheet has found other useful data to download and analyse.
One thing a spreadsheet can do well is stock control. When I’m buying it tells me exactly how much Tritanium I need to avoid annoyingly running out at the factory, and at the other end of the supply chain if there has been a sudden run on Distressed Widgets and I need to produce some more.
A helpful article about IPH:
Mineral based T1 stuff is pretty bad, sometimes bigger ships with expensive bpos are ok.
Rigs are often decent, basically stuff what the “my minerals are free” crowd cant really build.
EVE uses SWAGGER now of course and SSO is a right pain to implement in a Spreadsheet. Fortunately there is a good guide for doing this in Excel and hey EVE players aren’t put off by learning curves.
