:boundless: Boundless Links & Info

well that one goes directly to the damage cal. but the other link makes it a bit more obvious that there are other Boundless tools available… with the (-) side effect of showing unrelated tools too…

Ah, I do see them now. I just saw the music thing at the top, and was like… wait, an off-brand Spotify? O_O xD

Can this topic be pinned? If any topic should be pinned, it’s this one.

Thank you very much MajorVex

I would actually recommend removing http://www.pfiffel.com/. It great for historical reasons, but the site is out of date, not secure (HTTP) and Boundless Information Station (https://boundlessinfo.com/) has all of the same functionality. I plan to also add that data to Boundlexx at some point as well.

I also recommend getting rid of the Google doc for the color spreadsheet (my main goal of Boundlexx was always to kill Google Docs spreadsheets). I have a dynamically generated one available via Boundlexx located at https://cdn.boundlexx.app/exports/color_export.xlsx. It includes Exoworlds and Sovereigns, but it does not have the fancy color background the Google doc one has. It is updated regularly (I think once a hour or once a day).

If anyone wants to add the fancy colors and everything that are in the Google Doc one, the code that generates the export parodically is located at https://github.com/AngellusMortis/boundlexx/blob/master/boundlexx/api/tasks.py#L267

Also might be a good idea to list the support/update posts for a lot of the third party sites/tools as well as that should help keep down the “is BUTT down?” posts.

Is anyone still working on this? I was thinking about adding some to this myself but didn’t want to step on any toes. I would like to add the ability to sort the columns and also add a page for showing sovereign colors that are available but are not currently on any sovereign.

That would allow me as a sov owner to select a color that wasn’t currently being used

Is there a tool that shows portals/portal locations on a planet?

Angellus · August 13, 2021, 5:49pm

No unfortunately. Locations of portals can only be gotten via the game’s Websocket so there is no good way to extract portal data. Someone could in theory code it into BounlessProxyUI, but then we would need a lot more people running BoundlessProxyUI for it to be useful.

The closest thing (and probably where the portal data would go if I had it) is the interactive Atlas maps for each of the worlds on Boundlexx: Boundlexx - The Boundless Lexicon

Is their anyway to add region outlines to world maps?

Angellus · August 15, 2021, 12:13pm

I have never seen an API for regions so it is doubtful. Data without a game API usually only comes form the Websocket and it is not really easy to extract (same issue as portals).

Even settlements, I can only get the top 50 of. I only have Beacons because they are provided in the World Map Downloads. Shops are on the official API.

Oggieogham · August 15, 2021, 1:45pm

Those interactive Atlas maps are very nice!
Thanks for making those.

@Stretchious is Boundless Crafting still pulling/posting rental planet data?

Someone is asking about their Sovereign not showing up on there & they’d really like it to. Their planet is showing on boundlessinfo.

Sending a PM…

Useful one too
