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.

APOLLONIOHello CMDR’s
On the last days i have a problem while open galaxy map the game crash!!!this happen 8/10 times. Someone told me to change the settings of game from windowed to bordered at display option . It works for some reason for a couple days, but the issue appears again.
Any help is welcome. Sorry for my bad english..


Hello CMDR, a friend of mine seems to have the same issue. If you are charging your FSD while opening the galaxy map, you should avoid to do so

FluffyBitsThe grade 4 shield cell banks engineer is Lori Jameson. You get a permit for the system she is in when you rank at Elite


She doesn't actually have the blueprints though.

Hello fellow CMDRs. Now, it may or may not be a bug, but i've noticed that since the update, in conflicts, the capitol ships do not launch fighters.

@ Artie

Wing Identity format question.
Wing Overview Page

ABOUT ---YOUR NAME HERE---

Our FD in-game identity does not have the prefix "THE" ahead of the name.
But a "THE" reads better when included in the ABOUT header when referring to a name.
Any way the page header could provide a choice regarding the use of the "THE" prefix?

I second this recommendation.

I second this recommendation.

Hmmm, rather than complicate it with an options, I can put "About the XXX" there by default (with an exception when "the" is a part of the name already). Does it make sense for all wing name types, even abbreviations like AEDC? I am double-checking this, as a non-native speaker.

It does make sense, but I personally feel the wing name on its own is sufficient. The reader knows they're reading about the wing without being told.

A choice of upper or lower case would be good, though. Some wing names might benefit from being shown in mixed case lettering rather than upper case throughout.

R.A.HelllordThere are grade 4 Shield Cell Banks recipes listed on Inara, are those actually available ingame?

They don't have an engineer assigned to them and I haven't found one ingame either so far.



same thing with fsd interdictor grade 5.
there is no shield cell bank g4 or g5 available right now ingame


That's what I figured, thank you.

They are not, as far as I know. I should probably remove it from the list...


That would be splendid.

I second this. I believe it depends on each wing name.
I'm not a native english speaker either, but here's an e.g. anyway: I don't see company names using "The" as a prefix on their "about" pages.
   
While other nouns like "company" always use "The" as a prefix. E.g. "About the inara test wing", or "About the Apple company".

So... Complicating it with options would be the way to go? No clue, just my two cents. o7

As soon as you go back to the forum you unsubscribed from you re-subscribe, click it and resist the urge to check.

@Phelbore Heh, that makes sense. Thanks for the info.

I am a native speaker and 'About the Pan-Galactic Mining Corp' is not as clean as 'About Pan-Galactic Mining Corp'. So I think 'The' should be optional at best, and it will matter if its 'The' or 'the', as the capitalisation of the word in this context matters as to the exact name of the faction/wing.

The easiest way to solve the problem is to edit the name of the wing. If your wing are actually called The Monkees, then put The in the name. If they are the Eagles, then just put in Eagles as the name.
