This is a minor release, adding support for the Charity Cup 2025 tournament.

Theorycrafter 1.5.0

The main feature of this release is the ability to add hash-tags to fits:

The tags can be searched for, and searches can be pinned to provide a persistent working context. For example, you can tag all fits of a certain doctrine with "#doctrine" and pin that as search while working on that doctrine.

This release also brings:

Support for Breacher Pod Launchers.
A new "Remote Repairs" stats section for logistics.
Changing the security status for SS-bonused ships.
Searching the market tree.
Notifications when new Theorycrafter versions are released.

Theorycrafter 1.4.4

Congratulations to The Tuskers Co. for winning Alliance Tournament XX! It was epic.

This minor release removes AT XX as the current tournament and adds its prize ships: Sidewinder, Cobra and Python.

Theorycrafter 1.4

* Version 1.4.3 incorporates the smartbomb rebalance released on Sep 18th, 2024.

Release Highlights

This release focuses mainly on Alliance Tournament XX, but has quite a few features for non tournament enjoyers as well.

The damage graph now has a mode where it will show the damage with the best ammo at each range, and a list of the ranges and their respective best ammo type.

You can now apply environmental effects (e.g. wormhole, Abyssal weather) to fits:

Additional Features

Support for Alliance Tournament XX in the composition editor.
When inserting a ship in the composition editor, show the list of ships that can be added (remaining points-wise).
Export compositions with templates (useful for posting compositions on your team's forum).
Export/import compositions to/from an XML file.
Show and allow editing the spoolup cycles of triglavian modules.
Added a "Fit Analysis" feature that shows warnings about potential mistakes in the fit (for when you accidentally fit an armor rig on your Scimitar).

Theorycrafter 1.3

Release Highlights

Graphs! This release is all about graphs:

You can now explore in detail how well your fit applies damage to various targets, and also:

The amount of remote repairs provided by your logistics ship.
How much energy your fit can neutralize at various distances.
The chance to jam a target, or what percentage of time you can expect it to be jammed.
The effectiveness of various other EWAR modules, such as Sensor Dampeners, Tracking and Guidance Disruptors, Target Painters etc.
How much capacitor (an approximate simulation) your ship can expect to have over time, and when you will run out of cap.
The speed over time of various fits.
The amount of time it takes to lock various targets.

Additional Features

After pasting a fit with empty modules, you can now "Load Missing Charges" from the fit editor hamburger menu.
The tooltip in the "Effect" now shows the (capacitor) activation cost of all active modules.
The "Range" of missile launchers now shows both the lower (guaranteed) and higher (maximum) range.
Now that "Anger Games 6" is over (congratulations No Spaceships For Old Men!), the button for it has been removed. You can still find it under the new "Tournaments" button.
