I made some quite good progress with this, but given the latest developments Slav has on the table I have put it on hold in favour of other projects until Slav's version is released.

Some of the extras I have been adding are:

• Exit/Board ship at beginning / end of shift (for 0.0 mining, nicer to loose a pod than a fitted ship when not logged in)


• tractoring (but it looks like Slav will include this)


• moving ore around cans/cargo/ore hold (but once again I expect Slav to have this)


• follow the leader, so all in a fleet mine the same belt (Slav looks to have something like this but it is unclear)


• drag and drop algorithm editing

Would there be some progress/release updates on this ORCA Team feature/add-on/Script ?
I'll second other users in getting happy to use it

I resort to do the fleet manually for the time being, but you know how much hassle that is with 4 clients

Looking forward to the feedback on this great add-on in addition to Slav's wonderfull job over the years.

From what I can tell this is a dead project on his part. He has not been on the forums for about 4 months. So what it comes down to is make your own or have slav2 make it but he is a busy guy.

I'm also interested on this one ... !

Hi Slav I am interested in this project. Can we focus on the Orca please.

1) Orca Bookmarks all asteroids in system
2) Orca Assigns Corp hanger one as drop for ore then transfer ore to Raw ore hanger then transfers to Cargo hanger then fills Corp hanger then warps out to station in whatever solarsystem either next system in Stationless system or in same system
3) Orca activates permission to all those in Fleet to access corp hanger
3) Fleet is able to stay 10,000 from Orca and Orca stays within mining distance to ore. Meaning the Orca will slowly move from one end of mining field to other end through using a Tech 2 Asteroid Scanner. When ores are getting close to depletion it adjust course to larger ore or if Icefield stays put.
4) Orca activates gang assist. and deploys drones or shield repair drones, Meaning Miners dont use drones but the Orca locks on miners and when damage is noted then Orca sends assist miner(In future versions can be used on 0.0 Ships with capital drones)
5) Orca is able to store 2 ships. Miners can pod over to Orca in fleet mode and access ships in hanger and start mining. (This one would be cool but not really nessesary)
6) Orca able to Drop ore to multiple stops in system or in next system and return. Orca is able to drop off at POS.

These are the Idea I have for Orca and wish that this would be revived.

I am hoping for regular miner to travel to next system to drop off ore and mine in Staionless system. Especially the Ice belt systems in High sec which are not targeted at the moment. If you make this possible you would be the only bot to do this.

Slav has been kept busy with CCP's changes to the UI and menu/sub menus. For now I've been working with my own script not related to this project.

I'm sure once time permits Slav will chime in to the conversation.
