Package Concept: Django Fleet Manager

[porowns]

Django Fleet Manager

This one has been in concept for a while, probably needs to be bumped up to the next package to produce.

Background

There are two major types of fleets, standing fleets and op fleets. ESI gives us the ability to practically do everything with fleets, meaning we can beef up fleet types so that they're easier to create, manage, and track.

Potential Utilities

1. Create standing or op fleets with a button click
2. Auto-ping discord, join fleet from discord
3. Ensure MOTD is correct always, squads and fleet settings are correct
4. Track fleet participation

Breakdown

• Tooling API, create/manage fleets in authentication from URLs (helpful in game, etc)
• Fleets, display current fleets, better statistics/etc
• Statistics

Design

Fleet Types

- Standing
- Strategic

Fleet Templates

- is_free_move

Tracking

- Simple
    - Check the fleet every 15 minutes  
    - Log minutes per character
    - Have a pickable participation (25%/50%/75%/100%), default 100%
- Advanced // come later

Fleet Creation

• Click to create, links will create directly from a template
• Automatically creates the wings/squads/etc correctly
• When fleet is done, we "open" it to the public
• Every 15 minutes we do a check on the fleet and log minutes

Fleet Management

• Refresh button to re-pull members from Rest API, otherwise every 15 minutes

Fleet Close

• Have a paste-able box for loot, ore, etc
• Split it amongst members based on a LOOT POLCIY (equal split, participation %)
