Anyone have a recommended MCIC script. Currently using SWATH's built in which seems to only work if the port is 100% and you're using a CT with 250 tons.

I've been able to get and MCIC reading buying/selling only one unit. But yes, the port needs to be at 100%.

Check cherokee's public script pack, there is an equiptment haggle tracker in it

As was mentioned Cherokee's scripts :
Planet Nego , Buy down and EQ haggle Tracker all write files
that can be read or interrogated by Lone Stars MCIC script.

The latter is built into MomBot so that that script will read all of those
scripts output files and give a list of MCIC's you are looking for.

I hope this helps a little.

Vid,

I couldnt find LS's MCIC script either in Mombot or his script pack

Did you find that script Helix?? I have one from LS, not sure if there are newer versions or not.

Thanks mob, I will compile and run it.

seems like a lot of people are using M()M bot. Should I just suck it up and use that program instead of SWATH+TWX? The only thing I know about it is that its used to control other afk people in your corp via sub space...any other redeeming uses for it? Should I just read the manual? The way it sounded I kinda thought of it as mostly for unlimited turn games which I haven't quite decided to delve into.

actually its a set of twx scripts, not a separate helper

I resisted for quite some time, but I use M()Mbot, even in solo low turn games. Yes, you can use it to "bot" a teammate, but its simply a collection of TWX scripts.

I use this one

I am using Haggler 2013 from EP. I am running LS_MCIC to gather the port reports. The files is written and it's found via MCIC but it's not posting the information on the screen Here is a clip it of what is happening. I'd really appreciate any help to get this corrected.

My haggle script is named "EP's Perfect Haggle". If you're using it, you can certainly make use of the CSV export function, but that is not real-time updated. My recommendation is to use the sector parameters that it creates. You can use getSectorParameter to discern what my script writes to the sector parameters using queries like this:
getSectorParameter $sectorNumber "FUEL-" $lowFuelMCIC
getSectorParameter $sectorNumber "FUEL+" $highFuelMCIC
getSectorParameter $sectorNumber "ORGANICS-" $lowOrgMCIC
getSectorParameter $sectorNumber "ORGANICS+" $highOrgMCIC
getSectorParameter $sectorNumber "EQUIPMENT-" $lowEquipMCIC
getSectorParameter $sectorNumber "EQUIPMENT+" $highEquipMCIC

My script records the minimum and maximum possible MCIC values once it has completed a haggle. I usually only worry about the low MCIC value, but the high value will be more important if you're trying to discern the MCIC for a product the port is selling (vs. buying). I can elaborate on any of that if needed.

I ran into this same problem as Comet. Lonestar's MCIC is filtering 100% of the ports, even though there is valid data in the export that it should be displaying.

Helix did not have this problem, but I sent him my export, and it did the same thing on his computer when he tried to read it.

I'll have a look at the MCIC script when I get a chance (likely tomorrow). My first look will to compare the CSV from previous versions of E.P's haggle script and see if there's any notable difference.
