EVE-Central: Upgrades, new trade tools, and premium services
Many nifty things are afoot for EVE-Central.com. For one, I migrated away from mod_python, which was hanging up the Apache process several times per day for unknown reasons. There was even a monitor script to kill -9, ipcrm, and restart Apache if it wasn’t responding - this horrible restart was happening several times a day. The new EVE-Central.com is running CherryPy as the backend server now - the conversion was quick and painless, plus it performs better (barring any new introduced bugs).
On the new feature front, I’m working on a trade comparison tool for sell orders, trying to find price differences between systems or regions. Its in an alpha prototype stage, so not for public consumption yet. I expect it to launch in a week or two. Here is a link to a sample image.
I’m also mulling over a possible Premium subscription to EVE-Central. Paid in ISK, it would allow access to the aforementioned trade comparison tool, plus other options, such as ad-free view, and the ability to upload “premium” content which would not get pushed to normal users until a small time window had elapsed. Details still sketchy at this point
