Just testing it out in the past hour and noticing a lot of "API offline" errors


Yeah I've tried all the web clients and this is the only one that seems to be somewhat working at all https://exo.nickhowell.com

I wonder if it's the API being completely overloaded or the clients being terrible.


Happy to see something I made showing up in the comments! I do still maintain Exo, but it doesn’t have all of the features I would have liked to build (like automation) built-in. Maybe someday, or for SpaceTraders v2. Cheers!


Yeah, that one is rock solid. But this shows one of the benefits of the API-based approach: I'm trying to set up auto-trading in this client (https://tradecommander.dotefekts.net) while the other one would be more useful for manual flights


> Yeah, that one is rock solid.

The best compliment to receive, thanks! (I’m the author)


That one is interesting, though it's extremely fragile. Constantly throwing unhandled exceptions, not updating ship status and failing commands, breaking automation.
