Inara updates, bug reports, requests

Commanders having Elite from Epic games store with http 400 error
When you try to link your accounts, you may receive the http error 400 about expired tokens. It's an issue on Frontier's end that I cannot solve on Inara. Fortunately, the solution is simple - please give it a few days and it will start to work later (probably when the access token on their cAPI server expires). If the error 400 appeared later and it worked before, try to reauthenticate as said in the error message (may be just a regular reauth forced by Frontier). Alternatively, you can try to use the workaround below. If even that won't work, it's the problem described above.
Please vote for the issue on the official bug tracker: https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/21258

Possible workaround: Try to connect the account while you are in the game. It may work.

Game data and imports not available for console commanders and PC players with Legacy game version
Inara supports only the Live game version (so PC Horizons 4.0 and Odyssey) since game update 14, thus all the game data on the site and the commander data imports work only for those game versions.

Is Inara ever going to be able to pull our inventory down?

Entering it manually is a pain.

If data could be gleamed from the frontier servers this site would be indispensable.

Thanks for the great work you've out in, I'm a programmer and I know!

Hi Artie!

Just a quick question, what version of BB-code or phpBB do you use, so i can look up the coding possibilities .

e.g. not sure if you can use this Header
firthermore...for our Faction-status, is it possibly to extract directly from the Galaxy-systems page into our forums here on Inara?

Groo The WandererHi Everyone
Just curious, but are logbook exports a function of the game on PC only, or is there a way to accomplish it on console too?
Cheers and happy hunting

Yes, unfortunately, there is no such option for console game versions.

StiffhangerHello Artie,
Vyssotsky Base | HIP 77470 doesn't exist in that system but it is recorded by fault. I can't delete it. I hope you can/will do it. Thx.

Thanks, I will fix it.

Luke3107
Damon8r351The Gnosis shows up as a station in a number of systems that it's no longer located in. It would be wise to delete these:

-Hyades Sector AQ-Y D81
-Varati
-Witch Head Sector DL-Y D8

The location at BD-12 1172 is currently correct.

Given this, it might be wise to create a separate section for "Mega-Ships" and list their current location, or even create a separate category for them that keeps them apart from Stations/Outposts. Might prevent the need to edit each system as they travel? =)

Ah, right, I forgot that megaships may travel. I will handle it on the updates.

You can import your journal file (if you are playing on PC/Mac), which also imports your inventory. There is no possible to get it from Frontier's servers directly.

Draxxa KirethHi Artie!

It is a custom BBcode, basically you can use everything that is on the toolbar, there is nothing more extra. For the faction status - I am planning to add a separate page directly under the wing, so some faction overview will be eventually handled that way.

First, very nice job on the site. It's quite well put together and easy to get around. I tried to use it before when I was playing on console, but the manual updating was too much of an obstacle to overcome. I was excited to find the journal upload feature here upon revisiting Inara after transitioning to the PC.

Anyways, I noticed some strange behavior in my flight log and mission journal this morning after uploading the .log for last night's session. In my flight log, the times are incorrect starting at 8:00PM EDT (midnight UTC); they've jumped ahead an hour. Note the apparent delay of around an hour between docking at Aulin Enterprise and jumping to Eranin. In actuality, it was only a few minutes. Possibly related, it and the mission journal seem to have cut out after 9PM or so in actuality (10PM on the page) whereas I continued playing until around 9:45PM. I most definitely finished that planetary scan mission and I finished my journey docked at Beagle 2 Landing, not hanging out in the middle of the Asellus Primus system as the flight log would suggest.


EDIT: realized you might not be able to see what I'm talking about on my flight log since you might have a different time zone set. Here's a screenshot of the flight log, and the mission log.

At first glance, it seemed like it might be an issue with the rollover from one UTC day to the next during the same session, but I imagine a lot of users would've seen and reported that already. But I'm more inclined to believe it's an issue with daylight savings time. Looking at this table of daylight daylight savings events, it looks like such an event took place today for a lot of people. Perhaps it was mistakenly applied to the U.S. as well? We don't adjust our clocks until November 5. Looking at my Settings page, it does list Eastern Time as UTC-5, which is currently incorrect, and I think it had said UTC-4 when I set it up a few days ago, but I may be mistaken.

That might explain the hour jump. I'm not sure why it would jump ahead, and not back, though. Maybe the Inara server time itself jumped back? But then wouldn't it be out-of-sync with UTC, so everyone would see the discrepancy? Ugh... I hate timezones.

For reference, here is the "Docked" event, at 7:57PM EDT, reported correctly in my flight journal:


{ "timestamp":"2017-10-28T23:57:11Z", "event":"Docked", "StationName":"Aulin Enterprise", "StationType":"Orbis", "StarSystem":"Aulin", "StationFaction":"Aulin War Eagles", "FactionState":"Boom", "StationGovernment":"$government_Theocracy;", "StationGovernment_Localised":"Theocracy", "StationServices":[ "Dock", "Autodock", "BlackMarket", "Commodities", "Contacts", "Exploration", "Missions", "Outfitting", "CrewLounge", "Rearm", "Refuel", "Repair", "Shipyard", "Tuning", "MissionsGenerated", "FlightController", "StationOperations", "Powerplay", "SearchAndRescue" ], "StationEconomy":"$economy_HighTech;", "StationEconomy_Localised":"High Tech", "DistFromStarLS":111.292511 }


...and the "FSDJump" event, at 8:05PM EDT, reported incorrectly as 9:05PM in my flight journal:


{ "timestamp":"2017-10-29T00:05:51Z", "event":"FSDJump", "StarSystem":"Eranin", "StarPos":[-22.844,36.531,-1.188], "SystemAllegiance":"Alliance", "SystemEconomy":"$economy_Agri;", "SystemEconomy_Localised":"Agriculture", "SystemGovernment":"$government_Confederacy;", "SystemGovernment_Localised":"Confederacy", "SystemSecurity":"$SYSTEM_SECURITY_medium;", "SystemSecurity_Localised":"Medium Security", "Population":450000, "JumpDist":7.745, "FuelUsed":0.431611, "FuelLevel":1.568389, "Factions":[ { "Name":"Eranin Expeditionary Institute", "FactionState":"None", "Government":"Cooperative", "Influence":0.251491, "Allegiance":"Independent", "PendingStates":[ { "State":"CivilWar", "Trend":0 } ] }, { "Name":"i Bootis Democrats", "FactionState":"None", "Government":"Democracy", "Influence":0.113320, "Allegiance":"Federation", "PendingStates":[ { "State":"Boom", "Trend":1 }, { "State":"CivilUnrest", "Trend":0 } ], "RecoveringStates":[ { "State":"Outbreak", "Trend":1 } ] }, { "Name":"Eranin Peoples Party", "FactionState":"None", "Government":"Communism", "Influence":0.013917, "Allegiance":"Independent", "PendingStates":[ { "State":"Boom", "Trend":0 }, { "State":"Outbreak", "Trend":0 }, { "State":"Retreat", "Trend":0 } ], "RecoveringStates":[ { "State":"CivilWar", "Trend":0 } ] }, { "Name":"GD 319 Solutions", "FactionState":"War", "Government":"Corporate", "Influence":0.034791, "Allegiance":"Federation", "PendingStates":[ { "State":"Boom", "Trend":1 }, { "State":"Outbreak", "Trend":0 } ] }, { "Name":"Pilots Federation Local Branch", "FactionState":"None", "Government":"Democracy", "Influence":0.000000, "Allegiance":"PilotsFederation" }, { "Name":"Eranin Industry", "FactionState":"None", "Government":"Corporate", "Influence":0.009940, "Allegiance":"Independent", "PendingStates":[ { "State":"CivilUnrest", "Trend":0 }, { "State":"Lockdown", "Trend":-1 }, { "State":"Famine", "Trend":0 } ], "RecoveringStates":[ { "State":"CivilWar", "Trend":0 } ] }, { "Name":"Eranin Federal Bridge", "FactionState":"Boom", "Government":"Dictatorship", "Influence":0.280318, "Allegiance":"Independent", "PendingStates":[ { "State":"Outbreak", "Trend":1 } ] }, { "Name":"Mob of Eranin", "FactionState":"War", "Government":"Anarchy", "Influence":0.016899, "Allegiance":"Independent", "PendingStates":[ { "State":"Boom", "Trend":1 }, { "State":"CivilUnrest", "Trend":-1 }, { "State":"Lockdown", "Trend":1 }, { "State":"Outbreak", "Trend":0 } ] }, { "Name":"Terran Colonial Forces", "FactionState":"None", "Government":"Confederacy", "Influence":0.279324, "Allegiance":"Alliance", "PendingStates":[ { "State":"Boom", "Trend":1 }, { "State":"Outbreak", "Trend":1 } ] } ], "SystemFaction":"Terran Colonial Forces" }


I can send/upload the entire thing if it would be of assistance.

Cam: thank you for the detailed report. Yes, as I see, there is an issue with it as I apparently did some conversion wrong. I will fix that.
29 Oct 2017, 4:21pm
Awesome! Many thanks!

Do you know if the fix will be retroactive, or will I need to re-upload my logs again? Not really a problem either way since I don't have too many of them yet.
30 Oct 2017, 10:28am
is there any chance, that under Settings/privacy the location is only shared with your wingmembers ?

i think that would be a useful feature, that is still missing...


thanx for your work so far, it´s much appreciated...

From a brief look where the problem is it should be OK as is, so no re-upload will be needed.

Right, it may be useful, I will add it to my ToDo.

On a related query, do you prefer PC to console? I am thinking on doing the same thing and loosing my rank would be quite a blow, but having all the credits (2 billion or so) would be a nice starting point... still on the fence if it's worth it or not....

Cheers!

Hello! Afaik there is an plugin for the Market Connector. It is build by Mr ShepShep. It makes a lot of the work of your hands.

Also Artie the operator of INARA is testing an API. I hope you do it with some help , and we will see a release soon .

So there is an alternative for the manual labour. And it looks like there will be a even better one in the near future!

Fly safe

Is Synthesis list linked with materials on ToDo list in 150+ other tweaks and improvements? It would be great addition, so one could see both blueprints and synthesis that specific material is needed for.

I've disabled that plugin. It polls my assets too often, so my credits history starts looking like a flatline instead of a proper history, with many unneccessary entries per day. I wish it would update that just once per session.
