Integrating Player-Owned Terminals

As Star Citizen development advances, we're preparing for citizens to add their own terminals for selling goods—commodities, items, and vehicles—across our platform. Player-Owned Terminals (POTs) will function like regular in-game terminals, fully integrated into our platform and visible as standard in-game locations. Owners can update prices regularly, with their listings appearing across the entire site, including trade routes.

POTs will have a default lifespan of 30 days. If prices aren’t updated within this period, terminals will be auto-scheduled for deletion, ensuring our database reflects active traders only. A player icon and blue highlight will distinguish POTs from standard terminals.

Updating POTs will use the same process Datarunners use for in-game locations, so terminal owners must be registered as Datarunners. Currently, this feature is in standby mode, with only the "My Terminals" tab in the Trade Center (formerly Trade Logs) available.

In the meantime, visit the Marketplace to list items for trade!

Notes: For those who prefer not to see player data, an option has been added in Account Settings. POTs and other features announced here are subject to change, depending on Star Citizen’s development and our own priorities.


Nov 4, 2954

Marketplace > Listing Info Page Update:
The user rating (star rating) now reflects the advertiser's overall rating across all their listings, rather than just the current listing. This change provides clients with a clearer view of the advertiser’s overall reputation.

Oct 29, 2954

Container Sizes:
First implementation of Container Sizes across the Datacenter and Trade modules. Starting today, Datarunners can report container sizes per commodity. This information is accessible on the Trade Locations page, with plans to add a filter for container sizes on the Trade Routes page soon.

Container Sizes data is also available via our API through the commodities_prices endpoint.

Oct 27, 2954

- Trade > Routes: Fixed an issue where some routes were hidden during searches. (thanks Emeraldas42!)
Commodities > CAX: Resolved an issue with historical data that caused certain commodities (like RMC) to be incorrectly flagged as recommended by the system, and kept the "Profit per SCU" values inaccurate for these commodities. (thanks efourage!)
Data > Submit > Pledge: Fixed an issue that prevented datarunners from entering decimal values for pledge store prices (thanks taratatsa!).

Thank you all for your patience and understanding. Due to the software’s complexity and time constraints, community reports are essential for identifying bugs. If you spot any issues or inconsistencies, please let us know!

Oct 26, 2954

Trade Routes
- Updated how trade routes are calculated. Previously, some routes were skipped due to low or missing demand values (SCU) at certain locations. Now, all routes will be shown. Routes with missing SCU info will have a "?" next to the SCU value, indicating some uncertainty in selling there. Starting today, you’ll notice a significant increase in available trade routes.

Other Improvements:
- Added a "Predictable" button to quickly filter routes with more reliable data.

Other Bug Fixes:
- Fixed an issue where the Routes tool incorrectly skipped locations when an investment value was entered.
- Corrected a bug in the maximum investment tooltip that showed incorrect values.

If you encounter any issues, please report them through our contact form.
Thank you!

Update on Optimization Pass – 3:22 AM UTC: The initial datacenter optimization was unsuccessful, so some tools have been reworked to handle the large amount of data being processed. Thank you for your patience during this period of lag.

Updated Oct 17, 2954 @ 00:24

Oct 15, 2954

Datacenter:
Introducing Database Requests, a feature that allows datarunners to easily request additions, edits, or removals of items like commodities, terminals, vehicles, and more in the UEX database. Similar to Price Reports, this tool simplifies the process and is available for all datarunners.

Since this is a new feature, bugs may occur. If you encounter any, please report them here or on Discord.

Unlike regular price reports that are often auto-approved by the bot, Database Requests are manually reviewed, which may take some time depending on availability. Thanks for your patience.

Core:
Updated Resources and Terminals modules to integrate with the new Database Requests feature.
Minor bug fixes and improvements.

Datacenter:

We're now collecting fuel prices (hydrogen and quantum) from all locations across Stanton to build a comprehensive price database. These prices may affect various reports, such as trade routes.

Since this update touches multiple parts of the website, despite internal testing, there may be some bugs in certain reports. We appreciate your patience as we fine-tune everything.

If you're a Datarunner and want to contribute by submitting refuel prices, you can do so here. Not a Datarunner but still want to help? You can contribute here.

Trade > Fuel Prices: 
Added a new fuel prices tool.

API: 
Added new fuel_prices and fuel_prices_history resources.
Note: Changes in the current API 2.0 version are primarily incremental. This means we won't modify or remove any data, so there's no risk of breaking your application.

UI:
Fixed the "invisible logo" feature (just kidding, it was a server glitch—it's back now, sorry).

Updated Oct 9, 2954 @ 16:35

Oct 8, 2954
