Inara updates, bug reports, requests
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.

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

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!
Oh, I very much prefer it indeed, but keep in mind this is after shelling out just shy of $700 on new equipment for it in the form of a graphics card, VR headset, and HOTAS setup. Not strictly for Elite of course, with the possible exception of the HOTAS, but Elite was a major factor in the decision. Personally, unless you're planning on following a similar upgrade path yourself or have friends you want to play with on PC, I don't see enough of a difference to recommend switching.
I'd already bought the PC version for awhile before that since my brother briefly took an interest in the game and wanted to play with me but didn't have an Xbox One. I'll say that the graphics were a bit nicer, even with my previous "budget"-level graphics card, loading times in hyperspace/galaxy map/system map were a good deal faster, and it's really nice for roleplaying reasons to be able to name your commander as you please instead of being tied to your gamertag, but in essence it's the same experience.
Not so for me, now. I've always been an immersion-focused gamer. It's why I'll spend an hour walking from A to B in games like Fallout 4 despite them being a click of the fast-travel button away and why I spent the good deal of my 1000+ hours in Oblivion doing mundane things like pretending (with the help of mods) to be a shopkeeper or a wandering alchemist or a scholar and so on. At the risk of sounding like a VR fanboy or a Thrustmaster salesperson or something, for me, the immersion gained from being able to fly/drive around in Elite in VR and using the same type of physical controls that my virtual counterpart is using makes the experience different enough that I could never go back at this point.
I don't know, maybe the new Xbox One X will get VR support and IIRC Thrustmaster (again, not a paid spokesman) has a joystick and throttle that's compatible with the Xbox One. I just figured that if I was going to have shell out a bunch of cash anyways (for the One X, whatever headset it supports, and the peripherals) might as well shell it out now and get a head start.
I do miss my over-engineered Cutter, though: "The Pride of Baliunas." I could take that thing through CZ's without a care in the world. "Aww, an elite Anaconda. How cute. Now you will witness the might of this fully armed and operational battle station!"
I opted not to try to get my credits transferred, but rather to try to start as much of a tabula rasa as possible. I don't know if it's just my experience helping, but credits seem a lot easier to come by now. I like doing the passenger missions, but they pay so much that I'm going to have to hold off on 'em for awhile or else the temptation to skip entire tiers of ships might be too difficult to resist.31 Oct 2017, 7:17pm

As you can see the end of most posts is cut off, is the problem on my end?

I hope that this is the correct section for this problem.
I have updated my signature on here and updated it also on the Frontier forums but my signature is still showing the old one and on here it shows the correct one.
Tried everything, even deleting the signature from both sites and redoing it from scratch but again on the Frontier forums it shows my old one!!
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks

Artiescorpion: Maybe, what browser are you using? Do you have any plugins installed there?
I use Edge, use Voice Attack and have just installed EDDI, but don't always have them running.
The problem has always been there for as long as I can remember and I have been on here for some time now, I just thought that that was the way it was.
I have just looked back on a few posts and all now seem to be good, did you do anything? or is it the ghosts and goolies!!!

I'm no expert, but Inara is completely independent from the Frontier Forum site. If you're having a problem with your sig there, it may be better for you to raise the issue with one of the FF sites moderators.
I hope you get the problem sorted out.
Take care

I had much the same problem. I'm no expert, but the way I got it fixed was to delete the image file uploaded to Frontier as well as the signature where it was called. I suspect that Frontier thinks the INARA image is a static file and keeps using the same one. Or maybe it is a static file.
It was so much trouble to update that I just gave up on it.
I would appreciate a better solution from someone that knows better than me.

As I tend to do a bit of posting on Frontier's Forums and use the Inara signature, I can tell you that all you need to do is point to the URL on your profile. It will show as update on new messages, but anything in the past will be a thumbprint of the time you had originally posted the message.

Thanks, I have no Edge, so I cannot test it... if it is working for you now maybe it is something related to some stuff in the specific posts which breaks it there, or something completely unrelated. Hard to tell, I did nothing with it. But, if it is working now, I consider it as magically solved.

Honestly all this palava just to get a signature updated, makes me want to go and nuke a few Thargoids!

NezerrothI think armor blueprints are different now for different types of armor. I noticed that reactive armor heavy duty is completely different, and lightweight heavy duty has different hull boost stats.
Thank you very much for the screenshots! I will take a look on it and update the blueprints accordingly.
GoatieGreetings Artie, I see you have made some changes about the info shown on stations and that it updates that info whenever people are using a tool like EDMC to update EDDN. Could you also make it so the station owner gets updated whenever a new faction takes over a station?
It is updated that way already, but it requires somebody must dock in there, to get the proper information from the journals.
StephanieA_BTThanks Artie, but I deleted everything from the Frontier forums before redoing it. I even went as far as disabling and re-enabling it here on Inara. Still only the old signature shows up. It is really strange. Just posted up on the frontier forums about the issue. Am hoping for some feedback from them now.

As I see on Frontier forums, it was solved... so really just some caching stuff involved.

Resistances for hull-boosting armors are same as lightweit composite (though different than you have in blueprints).
