Google Sheet w/ Ship Stats and Mission Tracker
By LeafSG
So this game was fun as a management sim, but it's not only sorely lacking in some tracking tools and explanations, but the information for various things were spread out over multiple windows and interfaces, so the sake of sanity I started using sheets to track and compare ship info and what ships were doing what.

It became necessary after you start running 20-30 or more ships at once.

Summary
So this game is kind of nice but lacks a bit of the "planning" and "management" aspects, so I started treating it like I would with work and made a bit of a week out of managing the game via google sheets.

I envision that there's two things you can do with this:
1) You can use it like I did to track which ships are upgraded, the missions (contracts) they're on, and comparable stats like TEC/Tonnage ratio or Speed/Tec/Tonnage, etc.

The mission tracker sheet has some VLOOKUPs and formula and coloring magic so it's easier to read and update.

2) You can also use it to look up the information that's not easily accessible in game, like ship stats, port prices, goods TEC/Tonnage ratio, etc. This part is not entirely complete, but you can probably extrapolate the rest.

If there's enough interest, I'll post up some how-to's (or you can just ask me) on how to use it, but I figured I'll just leave it up here as a tool that I don't need anymore but might save someone a lot of time later.
