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 think there is a glitch in the Personal Log entry form on the Personal Log page.

There is a date field marked as optional, however even if filled, the entry is created with the datetime of "Now".
Once the entry is created, editing it with the date does set it correctly.

@Artie: can be added (is possible?) next functionality: Add all modules of "chosen" ships (or all ships?) into modules list. With bigger amount of "Storage" ships this can come really handy when you need find long stored equipment.

Already in the works, but not released because it's not finished.

[engineers] : I unlocked The Sarge without following the path as symbolised in the engineers section (brilliantly done btw, never realised..)

However it doesn't update it properly as "contacted", "unlocked" and "G5"...i do use EDMC (latest vesion)...i see as well you don't have the option any more to update it via the log?

It depends when the Sarge was unlocked? The change is made just on the change during the session, not retrospectively (a limitation of the journals). In such cases it needs to be set manually, as mentioned by Lyonhaert.

That is a correct behavior - the "optional" means the user doesn't need to enter the date/time and the actual date and time is set on the first update/insert then.

No plans for that. The stored modules should be just the stored modules. Otherwise see the currently unfinished feature mentioned above.

I was wondering if in the BBCode of tables, one can somewhat "stylise" the tables something like [TD="bgColor: #f01"] ? I think it depends on the version of your BBCode Parser?

Just a note to whom it may concern that HR 4720 is being listed as not being involved in Powerplay or independent - which as of last PP tick is not correct. Felicia Winters now controls the system.

Does anything else on Inara update via EDMC? Credits, ships and outfitting?

Are you using anything other than EDMC, like EDDiscovery?

Hi,

Sorry for the dumb question but my PMF has finally appeared on eddb/edsm/inara (as I'm based right on the edge of populated space it's taken a while for a PC CMDR to fly through one of my systems ), however I'm unable to mark it as a PMF here. When I edit the faction details I can change the home system and government type etc. but cannot change it to a PMF from a MF.

How do I do this please?

Many thanks in advance!

Post the info here and Artie will do it, he's the only one who can.

But when filled by the user, shouldn’t the user provided value be used instead of the default one ?
I find the current behaviour non-intuitive.

I have experienced a sort of lag problem between EDMC and Inara where data about my current credits and engineering work seems a little behind than what I've seen in my 4 panel in-game.

Usually everything updates within a logging into the game by the next day.

About the only thing I might be able to suggest (without intervention from Artie) is to simply ensure your API keys are correct.

I am not sure where the problem may be. As I've just checked, the engineers stages (like "Invited", etc.) seems to be correctly set via API/EDMC. The manual journal import afterwards may not update some things, as there is a newer update already recorded (so it doesn't overwrite stuff on mismatched journal uploads, etc.). The only thing I see in your journals uploaded is the Bill Turner's rank 1 event, and as I also see in your reputation, Turner is properly updated.

Not sure which PMF it was, but I have made some update for the latest PMF additions, so hopefully your faction is in it.

There is nothing more than what is already on the toolbar at this moment.

Thanks, I will take a look for the problem...
