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.

I got request for the Flight Logs imports vs 30MB size limit as I get often 30 to 100MB net log files, either
1. allow up to 100MB sizes
2. support .zip/.7z compression of the file for the upload
thanks in advance

note: compression to .zip of 65MB netlog results into 4MB archive and to .7zip results into 3MB archive

I've noticed that since the update I have been unable to upload any of my travel logs....<snip>


Hello, I wasn't touching anything there in the update, so it's weird it stopped working for you. Do you can please check if the same form principle (drag&drop or click) works for you in the Gallery image upload (you can post any image and then delete it)? Unfortunately, I have no chance to test it on Safari, so it's complicated to track it down.


Hi Artie,

I was able to successfully upload a shot to the gallery. I'll keep snooping around on my end to see if I can find a resolution. Thanks for your time!

Okay... I installed Chrome and I was able to upload my logs normally. I also realized that the formatting had returned to the way I know and love your site! It looks like the new formatting doesn't play nice with Safari (Or vice versa really).

So my solution? Use something other than Safari!

Uh, uh, pretty huge log file, is it from the long game session? I know there may be large log files, but they are pretty rare, as usual log size is something around 5MB per hour. If do you can send me largest file (zipped ) to elite@inara.cz, I may take a look on it, but no promises (there may be another issues with it).

That's possible solution, too...

Artie it's not issue with logs, I'm using advanced logging so those files get relatively big after leaving the game running for hours
size also increases rapidly the more players are in same session due to additional data logged ...

Hello Artie,

Would you consider adding the following?

1. The ability to add pages/sections to the Wing History/Lore page, basically you kind have already done this by having the Squadron Stories included on this page, however I would like to add pages/sections that are independent and cover various aspects of our minor faction.

I have several stories I would like to add to the this section, however in its current condition if I do add anything the page will lose readability because it will be too long

2. Recently I have tried to publish stories via the in-game GalNet. I am finding that the consensus for story telling is that it is very difficult mainly due to Frontier not publishing every story someone may submit (which from the GalNet reader's perspective would create gaps/lapses in events). Would it be possible to have a player submitted news feed?  The news articles could be posted to a section in the wing by members, edited by the wing commander or deputy commander and finally submitted for display to the rest of Inara.

A series of rules governing length and content could be set (inline with Frontier's standards) so articles that do not make the cut with Frontier can still be published.

Hi Artie,

I didn't realise that the error message for invalid lines appears at the top. When I saw that I corrected errors in the .csv and then everything went in correctly.

All working fine now. Thank you for the time and effort you put into this site. It is a wonderful resource and one which every new CMDR should be told about when they start, It would have made my life a lot easier at the beginning. I only discovered it a few days ago and I now use it extensively.

All the best.

Just wondering if any one knows where I can go on line and find a list of places that are not controlled by human players and about 1/4 way across from this side of the galaxy?

That's literally billions of systems.

I'm not sure what you mean - "controlled by human players" as in Powerplay, or "controlled by human players" as in minor player factions (example: Titan Industries of Avikarli)?

As I understand now, there in no human controlled places. All belongs to npc`s. Yes, there is given minor factions, but the are separated from CMDRs, no one relates to them, even you allied. Thats just allied. Its like some kind of distant protection, without close connection actually.

I mean by both sides none PP or Minor player Factions. I want a place far from PP but ok if close to another minor faction just worry because I don't want trouble any more. I just want to life quietly on my own planet and maybe invite a few friends over or have them stay which ever.
