Summary of Findings:

1. Identifying Modules:

• Modules are items with categoryID = 7 ("Module") or categoryID = 66 ("Structure Module")
• Query: SELECT typeID FROM invTypes WHERE groupID IN (SELECT groupID FROM invGroups WHERE categoryID = 7)

2. Which Slot Modules Can Fit Into:

• Modules have effects in dgmTypeEffects that indicate slot requirements:
  • effectID 11 = loPower - "Requires a low power slot"
  • effectID 12 = hiPower - "Requires a high power slot"
  • effectID 13 = medPower - "Requires a medium power slot"
  • effectID 2663 = rigSlot - "Must be installed into an open rig slot"
• Query: SELECT typeID FROM dgmTypeEffects WHERE effectID IN (11, 12, 13, 2663)

3. Finding What Modules Are Fitted on Killmails:

• The flag field in the Item table (zkill_items) contains the flagID indicating where the item is located
• Fitted modules have flags:
  • FlagIDs 11-18 = Low slots (LoSlot0 through LoSlot7)
  • FlagIDs 19-26 = Medium slots (MedSlot0 through MedSlot7)
  • FlagIDs 27-34 = High slots (HiSlot0 through HiSlot7)
  • Rig slots have different flagIDs (need to check for rig-specific flags)
• If flag is between 11-34, the item is fitted in a slot
• If flag is outside this range (e.g., cargo flags), it's not fitted

To identify fitted modules on killmails:

1. Check if item_type_id is a module (categoryID = 7)
2. Check if flag is between 11-34 (fitted in a slot)
3. The flag value tells you the exact slot (LoSlot0-7, MedSlot0-7, or HiSlot0-7)
