STO - Admiralty System Optimizer

intrinsical

Commodore
Commodore
Admiralty System Optimizer is a program that will automatically pick the best set of Admiralty ships to use for Admiralty Assignments.

Website: https://intrinsical.github.io/categories/sto-aso
Note: The download links scattered throughout the rest of this thread are now obsolete and do not work. Please do not use them. Please visit the ASO Website using the link above to download the latest version of the program.

The program supports multiple characters and each character has its own roster of active, maintenance and one-time ships. You input an assignment's Eng, Tac, Sci requirements and punch "Plan Assignments". The program will tell you which three ships are best suited for the assignment. For now, the definition of "Best" is 100% success rate and +0% crit rate. This may change as I further develop the program.

Please give the program a try. I'll appreciate any feedback on how I can further improve the program. Please feel free to post stats for missing ships or any inaccurate ship states.

Requires Java 1.7 or better.

Updates - 9 Nov 2015

  • Spent a couple hours synchronizing all changes in the ship database with changes in STO Wiki's Admiralty System Ships Master List. They should now be identical, at least on 9 November 2015.
  • Added the capability to view the 10 best solutions for an assignment.
Updates - 8 Nov 2015

  • Ships with special ability "Ignore +Eng/Tac/Sci from Events" now works properly
  • One-time ship roster now supports multiple copies of the same ship
  • Added support for small craft. Small craft special abilities are currently not supported.
  • Improvements to user interface
Updates - 4 Nov 2015

  • Fixed/added ship stats for Pach Raptor, Vor'Kang Battle Cruiser, Vo'quv Carrier, Chontay Class Science Destroyer, MoQ Class Science Destroyer, Ta'Sub Class Science Destroyer, Kolasi Siege Destroyer (T6), Negh'Tev Heavy Battle Cruiser (T6), Qa'Tel Flight Deck Raptor (T6), Klavek Class Pilot Raptor (T6), Kortar Class Pilot Raptor (T6) and Fleet Ha'Feh Assault Warbird
  • One-time ships are now deleted when they have been assigned. Previously, they were erroneously moved to the maintenance roster.
  • "Add Active Ships" dialog no longer show ships you already own.
  • "Add Active Ships" dialog now automatically filter ships by the Admiral's faction.
  • Added graphics! Still a work in progress. I am a coder not an artist. My apologies so the ship icons don't look nice. Can anyone help?
Updates - 3 Nov 2015

  • Fixed ship stats for Catian Atrox Carrier
  • Added "Clear Assignment" button, reset assignment stats back to 0.
  • Added "Assign Ships" button, moves assignment ships to maintenance roster.
 
I've tried to download this without success,

Microsoft Edge will not download the .zip and warns me it is unsafe to download and was blocked by SmartScreen Filter.

I then tried in Internet Explorer, it downloaded then IE. Once downloaded IE ran a security scan and deleted the download telling me it contained a virus, which then set windows defender which wanted to do a full system scan.

I would *really* like to try this system out but with these warnings, i'm not sure If I should.

Is anyone else facing the same issue?

I did a scan on my files using windows defender and it is reporting a clean bill of health. I tried downloading the file using Internet Explorer with SmartScreen Filter. It allowed me to download the file without any warnings. I scanned the newly downloaded file and it is still clean.

Honestly, I don't know what is going on. The program is 100% written by myself, compiled by myself. The only external libraries I use to read .csv files are from reputable open source. My system is secured by windows defender too, and I don't ever download stuff from suspicious sources. I reckon the chances that my system is infected is low, but I cannot say it is impossible.

For me, the biggest question is... How can the same piece of antivirus give two conflicting reports?

I've managed to get it downloaded, I had to do it through firefox. Just adding my ships into it now :)
 
I've noticed a few ships don't have any stats against them, hopefully the following will help fill in a few gaps....

D'ridthau Warbird Battlecruiser, which should be 35 eng -19 tac - 18 sci - 2.5x Critical Rating from ENG

Fleet D'Khellra Warbird Battlecruiser (T6), which should be Fleet D'deridex Warbird Battlecruiser (T6) - 54 eng - 33 tac - 30 sci - 2.5x Critical Rating from ENG

Fleet Chimera Heavy Destroyer - 32 eng - 52 tac - 14 sci - +10 SCI per TacShip
 
Thanks for the info, I'll add the data to the ship database.

Fleet D'Khellra Warbird Battlecruiser (T6), which should be Fleet D'deridex Warbird Battlecruiser (T6) - 54 eng - 33 tac - 30 sci - 2.5x Critical Rating from ENG

So which are these stats for? The Fleet D'Khellra or Fleet D'dridex?

It is the same ship, for some reason in the admiralty system lists the fleet d'khellra (as it is called in the ship store/selector)as the fleet d'deridex :confused:
 
Updates - 11 Nov 2015

  • Fixed/added ship stats for [U.S.S. Rhode Island], [I.K.S. Hegh], Vo'Quv Carrier, Ferengi D'Kora Marauder, D'ridthau Warbird Battlecruiser, Fleet D'deridex Warbird Battlecruiser (T6), Fleet Chimera Heavy Destroyer, Danube Runabout, Type 8 Shuttle, Captain's Yacht, Delta Class Shuttle, Tal'Kyr Support Craft, Yellowstone Runabout, Aeon Timeship, Mirror Danube Runabout, Ferengi Na'Far Shuttle, Tholian Widow Fighter, Vaadwaur Pythus Fighter, Voth Heavy Fighter, Class F Shuttle, Peregrine Attack Fighter, Stalker Stealth Fighter, General's Chariot, Kivra Shuttle, Rozhenko Timeship, Toron Shuttle, Commander's Gig, Kestrel Shuttle, Tiercel Shuttle, Scorpion Fighter
  • Added further support for small craft.
  • Small crafts with special ability "+N ___ Stats per ___ Ship (Not Small Craft)" now works properly.
  • Small crafts with special ability "Ignores ALL Event Modifiers" and "Ignores ALL Event Modifiers (Not Small Craft)" now works. I am not sure what is the difference between the two abilities, so currently they're both coded to do the treat all event modifiers as if they were zero.
  • Added error reporting.
  • Improvements to user interface.

I'm using your 11 Nov build.

Small craft are neutral when it comes to class (Eng/Tac/Sci) and do NOT gain bonuses from bonuses like +8 TAC per...

The roster and selection window shows a white neutral border for small craft, but the summary window shows a tactical border making this confusing on what it is. In testing ASO is counting them as TAC ships when it shouldn't.
 
Thanks for the feedback, the bug has been noted and fixed.

Updates - 12 Nov 2015

  • Added To'Duj Fighter
  • Small Crafts were being misidentified as Tactical Ships, resulting in erroneous stat bonuses being awarded. Small Crafts will now identified as Small Crafts.
  • Small crafts are now represented with silver icons

  • This is a major upgrade.
  • Added the ability to pick assignment events from a list of events. This makes entering assignment information much faster.
  • Added support for planning between 1 to 3 assignments together as a set. The optimizer will pick the best ships for each assignment while making sure the same ship is not sent on two different assignments.
  • There is a slim possibility that the optimizer may fail to find suitable ships to send on a set of assignments. This is usually caused by two assignments needing the same ship. It is a very rare occurrence that can happen when either (A) there is a small number of active ships to choose from, (B) two assignments having identical or near-identical requirements. If this happens, reduce the number of planned assignments or pick different assignments.
  • Added the ability to delete an Admiral
  • Added Mirror Guardian Cruiser (T6), Tal Shiar Adapted Destroyer
 
In case you guys are wondering, yes I am still making improvements to the program but most are not ready for release as the holiday season is the busiest time of the year for me. Here are some of the things I am working on:

- Added a "stay on top" toggle to the program, allowing it easy viewing of both STO and the optimizer together without having to constantly switch between the two programs.

- Select assignments by name. This is working, but I want to polish the user interface to make this work better. Some of the assignments have very long names, which makes them very hard to display in a small area.

- Right now, I am primarily working on fixing bugs with calculating critical rating. Once this is done, I will move on to work on a new scoring mode that maximizes critical rating. This new mode will be useful for players with a lot of ships. It will allow not just complete assignments with 100% success rates, but also with a high chance of getting a critical at the cost of sending T6 ships and ships that boost critical rating.
 
I've just added the following ships to my internal copy of the program. Once I complete a couple of bug fixes, I can release it.

Excellent update, thank you.

Couple of little things, Tholian Meshweaver Escort is an "Uncommon" not "Common", and the Romulan T6 Flagship Drteadnoughts are all Tac ships not Eng ships.
