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.

Artie,

Many thanks for all you do. Inara.cz is phenomenal.

Maybe you don't need a cap per se, perhaps just implement a logarithmic scale to fade the effect as the credits go up? Your first billion cr means something, second means less so, 3rd, 4th etc are icing on the cake so to speak, 25th billion is barely noticeable from a site rank perspective.

Yes, it is something I was thinking about, too. Unfortunately, it doesn't solve the problem entirely (at least for the high ranks), it just lowers the score difference. So for example quadruple Elite with 10 billions will be having score 61.000 and similar player with 100 billions 61.101 (exaggerated). The score difference will be low, but player that will want to achieve that will still need to get 90 billions. There is a not a best way out, any solution will always have some drawbacks, as the root of the problem with huge credits difference due easy credits farming methods is/was in the game and not the ranking formula.

Van R FlyheightNo idea if this is caused by a bug, people artificially creating scores or just a strange coincidence but why do so many commanders have the exact score of 40,000? Rankings page 107 Scores above and below are quite sporadic but all these commanders are set to the exact score even though they don't have the same stats.

That's correct, these players have no credits/assets set so their score is purely based on their ranks. And the ranks combination (1.000 points per rank level) will get them this score.

I am still encountering virus warnings when I attempt to edut factions ingluenced in wika mu and Paroja.

I do not have these warnings when U edit other systems.

DarthjazzhandsHey Artie
Forgot to mention there are zero unread messages in my pm archive or anywhere in my account.


It seems there is really some weird bug. I know what is happening, I am just not sure how to trigger it yet. As a temporal solution, please open any message for multiple recipients (like the one named "Silverbacks" made by the end of the year), it should fix it.


IT WORKED!

Thanks Artie. That was making me mental

Luke3107Just to check Jazz Hands, have you looked inside your Friends section? I ofteb find that mysterious notifications seem to be hiding there


Yeah. Checked that too but thanks

Shifter ZeroHey Artie, when I look at the outfitting of specific stations the sizes of the orange boxes do some weird things. theyre fine on the outfitting page itself tho.



Thank you for information, which browser (and version) are you using?


Chrome, Version 63.0.3239.132


Thanks, I am using the same version and there is no such issue... are you using any plugins that may alter the page content (like Skype plugin sniffing for contacts, etc.) ?


nope, dont have any plugins or anything. maybe something to do with screen size/resolution? ive got 1920x1080 on a 24 inch monitor
26 Jan 2018, 6:49am
^maybe not. still get the same issue on my laptop, on both chrome and firefox

Excellent updates Artie; loving the graphs and will probably be adding just those things to my own dev next week.

Quick and very minor couple of things:
Minor Factions page, Stations Owned table -- dataTable that too to enable easy sorting by system for example?
With the site being https now the GoogleAPI fontawesome-webfont doesn't get delivered as the call is over http and not https (might not even be using it of course, just shows up in F12)

Bravo as ever though. Sticky = nice BTW -- no more "back" or "Home" to move to the next thread...

As I asked before: I am very sure there is nothing malicious on the site, but may be good to find what is triggering it. What antivirus are you using and what alert it is throwing?

Shifter Zero^maybe not. still get the same issue on my laptop, on both chrome and firefox

Found the issue, it should be now fixed, thanks for reporting.

Stations sorting - yes, I will add it there.
Google font - that's odd, the font import is (or at least should be) made from https://fonts.googleapis.com/blahblah... so there shouldn't be issues with mixed content. Do you know from what URL is it trying to import?
26 Jan 2018, 2:53pm
FireBug harks on about:
Blocked loading mixed active content “http://api.jqueryui.com/jquery-wp-content/themes/jquery/css/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff?v=3.0.2”

Ah, I said Google... Doh! Sorry Artie. JQueryUI, so maybe something from a widget theme...
26 Jan 2018, 4:12pm
Ah, it was a font name. In any case, there is no such font used and no presence of it in the libraries used. Is it throwing this error just on some pages or everywhere? It rather seems like something altered the page content, browser extension or similar...

Hey Artie
Looks like I’m not getting flagged on posts to most threads. Thought my Wing was taking a few days off but it turns out they’ve been just as busy as usual.

Any suggestions?
thanks

Please send me a PM which faction are you trying to claim, I will take a look on it.

Hmmm... I thought there isn't much records in your visit history, when I have investigated it last time. It is very probably the same issue as with the multi-recipients messages alerts in your inbox. Visiting the threads will fix that, please let me know if that will happen again, this one is really hard to replicate so any insight what you was doing shortly before that may help.
