Entropia Central - little bit of everything

Update: Entropia Central is at https://entropiac.com , we might bring it back to entropiacentral.com, but for now we are keeping separate projects until all features are moved over. Register at entropiac.com/register

I didn’t want to promote the unfinished project, but seeing how many people could benefit from using certain features even it’s not 100% complete, I’ll share some information here about the project, and where it is going to.

Entropia Central project consists of many “modules”, but you are most likely going to interact with the www.entropiacentral.com & Entropia Central Tracker.

  1. www.entropiacentral.com

It was originally meant to be just for displaying wiki data, but it grew as the crazy ideas kept coming in, and I implemented all of them one by one (still many ideas left unimplemented tho)
If you navigate to the home page, you will be able to see live globals from in-game, trade messages and latest from forum. Who knows, maybe we can add wave detection trough tracker and display wave status on the website in real time? Let me know what you think.

Expanding left-side navigation will show items/stuff available to browse and filter on the website
All items, creatures, everything is editable and permissions are role based, so for example if you have just registered, you have ability to use most of the features, but you can not change or delete any important data.

If you want to get discord notifications for your society, let me know, for now only I can add that, but in the future I’ll allow everyone create/maintain their society pages. Data i will need for this is list of society members and threshold at which to send discord message to your designated channel.

If you want to run the event trough Entropia Central, let me know what format of the event you would prefer, and other information so I can set it up for you. At this moment these services are completely free.

There is also a new way to filter creatures where your mind will be blown when you see what creatures are better then flesh rippers for example for skilling

The project has number of tools available to everyone, for free, forever, such as:

Loadouts (yes this is originally my idea), where you can add everything you can imagine and see the stats, what’s equipped, save & share.
disclaimer (with small letters): there is arsonistic chip and mindforce implants missing for the configuration, also numerous item effects are not available at the moment, which is what I will be focusing on in the next couple of days.

Ring combinations tool:

All available tools can be viewed here: https://www.entropiacentral.com/tools

There is also a small crafting calculator, will be expanded to something more later on which I can not reveal at the moment.

(found at every blueprint page)

Tiering - if you know materials for tier 1 of the item, all other tier materials will automatically populate. Once you populate data, other users can benefit from the generated data as well.
I have worked hard to make this tool as accurate as possible, and I hope it will help you out.

Creature loots - Thanks to Isa’s crazy idea, creature loots will have much more sense, the idea was to implement “reddit like” upvote/downvote system, where with existing loots that were marked as “No longer drops” have initial score of -1. It is 100x better system then what entropia wiki provides, and should definitely be used as it’s super simple to just click once everything you know drops from the creature.

The site uses only basic in-house web traffic tracking and does not collect or distribute any personal user information.
This project will continue to be developed for a very long time, and it won’t stop even in case MindArk releases new official wiki, we will still have better data and tools here. A lot of data is already prepared, and will be processed and added/updated when i get to that.
Let me know if you have any suggestions or concerns, thanks to everyone who contributed to the project in any way so far. Anyone who wants to genuinely contribute and not do harm to data, I will grant the higher role to be able to modify the data. I still need to adjust roles for certain features, for example tiering materials there is no reason lowest role shouldn’t be able to add those etc.
I am aware of some of the UI bugs, but just had no time to tackle them. The update that will come in the next couple of days will address most of them (annoying tables on mobile, annoying spacing on mobile etc.).

  1. Entropia Central Tracker

The first legit tracker that 100% can not contain any viruses or any other shenanigans, as it’s verified by Microsoft.

Tracker can be downloaded from Microsoft Store exclusively, and will not be distributed in any other way, (sorry if you don’t have legit Windows), it supports Windows 10 and 11 specifically.
Here’s the full tracker guide for whoever wants to give it a try: https://www.entropiacentral.com/news/ecentralnews/entropia-central-tracker-guide

The tracker has a few purposes:

  • Feed server with globals, trade messages and pvp actions
  • Make screenshot on global
  • Make video replay on global (OBS Studio integration)
  • Backup the globals (for events)

Tracker has multiple modes where you can choose what you are most comfortable with to track: default (all), only globals, only landarea globals, only pvp actions, stealth (see below)

Thanks to Sub’s suggestion on discord, it also has a “Stealth” option where you don’t send any data anywhere, and use it just to make screenshot or video replay on your globals. I don’t mind if people uses the app this way, it’s already built and exists no reason to not let people enjoy it.

Tracker is free and will be free forever. Additional more advanced features may appear in future releases (searching trough notes, loot tracking, etc.), but you can always choose to not perform an update if you are comfortable with current version.

Last and very important note, please take it very seriously: When registering, please use unique password, possibly auto generated google password. Do not enter password you use everywhere, so worst case scenario or being hacked, which is unlikely, you are safe. Generally for anything important you should change your passwords often (at least every 15 days).

nice catch, made a huge update few days ago which broke that specific feature only for a short time period.

If anyone had problems with registration, password must be 10 letter long, have one capital letter, one special character such as exclamation mark.

Updates:

www.entropiacentral.com

  • Creatures are now showing last 10 globals recorded.
  • Event participants can now view all globals accounted for the event, for transparency.
  • Minor UI fixes

Entropia Central Tracker

  • New update will roll out at 17:00 UTC and will be mandatory
  • It includes certain stability improvements and additional features: Screenshot on pvp action & replay on pvp action

Upcoming:

  • More UI adjustments
  • Sync latest data - right now some data is missing, such as most pills, item effects, images, tier materials, and more. All this data is almost ready and will be added very soon.
  • Loadout improvements (can not disclose at the moment what exactly I am planning to add)
  • Global browser - unlike EL you will have ability to search by avatar name, filter by land area, creature, resource etc. No more profiles, hidden profiles, paying to view something, paying to un-hide, this is completely free.
  • Trade messages browser - You will be able to browse and filter trade messages, in case you were at work, and missed out on some offers, you can easily “go back in time”.

Notes:

  • Tracker will not be receiving Stream Labs integration any time soon.
  • Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any suggestions or concerns

Thanks to everyone helping out on this so far !

Great job using ‘bobbazz pink’ in this theme, @Bobbazz must be proud :smiley:

Update:

  • NEW: https://www.entropiacentral.com/tracker - you can now access all globals/pvp/trade messages data in the database at this page
  • UI/UX updated all over the place
  • Theme selection is now located in the footer, as it’s not that used feature

Known issues:

  • Tracker randomly crash once in a while - this is my top priority and I will push a new app update as soon as possible

With the help of the tracker you can record clips of your globals (you set the threshold) or even PVP kills. Then you can compile them into something neat like in the example below (ofc there can be way better compliations and much better cropping to avoid overlapping)

Give it a shot!

Tracker update 1.0.3 (Microsoft Store will probably approve it in the morning):
[ul]
[li]Solved random crashes in specific cases[/li][li]Fixed an issue where you couldn’t scroll down screenshots and notes if you had too many[/li][li]NEW setting: Enable automatic chat.log backup every 3 days. Enabling this option will result in tracker backing up your chat.log inside ChatLogBackups folder in Documents/Entropia Universe, once every 3 days. I didn’t want to expand to too many options here, but if anyone has some specific requirement I will most definitely take a look into it and implement if it’s something that will be used by most people.[/li][li]OBS will now reconnect automatically[/li][/ul]
EDIT: 1.0.4 released to fix OBS reconnection edge case

Future plans:
[ul]
[li]If the app is stable for at least a week with 0 crashes, I will move forward with basic implementation of loot tracking ability, which will be expanded with features over time. The goal is to not pile up bug backlog as my time to develop this is limited, so it has to work around the clock with 0 error tolerance.[/li][/ul]
I will have to create new thread for the tracker itself as if everything goes as planned, 2.0 version will be a bomb. Let me know if you have any crazy ideas or suggestions, if you imagine it, I can implement it.

Thanks all for the support, if anyone wants to get discord notifications on their society globals/hofs/rarities, let me know. I will add option in the future for everyone to manage their society member list and hook it up to their discord. This service is free at the moment, as well as event management of any kind.

Can U add search to tracker of globals per player and time?

A ok its there https://www.entropiacentral.com/tracker?type=hunting

Good now we can se bots

P.S.

Hunting tracker dont show all players
[Globals]: John Black Knight killed a creature (Reinforced Drill Bot 1001) with a value of 15 PED!
[System]: Entropia Universe time: 2024-09-25 04:01:28

So the question. Do you delete tracking per request of someone?

Hi, nobody ran the tracker at Cyrene at the moment he got the global, so it is not in the database, for now only Calypso is covered 24/7, and tracker would need partners from other planets to feed the data around the clock..

I will show time as well, right now it is just date and how long ago it occurred.

I will not delete globals data on request, unless there are legal reasons to do that, which is very unlikely :slight_smile:
