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.

Oreg JackmanI have a blog and use this - I would like to be able to send stuff from here to my blog for others to see. to promote this tool as much as talk about what I am doing.



Hmmm, I am thinking about possibilities. Just purely theoretically - as a blog owner, would you like to have your blog duplicated there, too?[/quote]

Not sure - my blog is ED only I could in theory move it over to here if there was a blog option - however I see a larger call for people who want to incorporate info into their blogs or indeed into their personal sites (I see sending stuff to FB as being a good idea too)(

Just a minor thought, what about sorting inverse after date? Newest on top?

Nope, right you are.

Would it be possible to pull the current location data (as in the system I'm in) and with just a press of a button add it into a list?

I was thinking some kind of an 'explorer diary' type of thing. I know I can do that from Achievements but it's somewhat cumbersome to manually type all the system names, especially those that are just a bunch of letters and numbers.

Not sure if I'm the only one but I'd like to keep track of the systems I've visited.

Artie - Well, when thinking about a name I can't help but reference Star Trek. Why not call it "Captain's Log"? Short and simple.

I guess "Commander's Log" would be more Elite: Dangerous-y however!

Which i also realize is the name of the entire thing, but also works for the status updates... Maybe as simple as "Status" or "Log" would also work.

My blog I have called it 'ships log'

Just thinking, with the market it is listed that a station sells ships. I guess the ships on offer are reasonably stable, could the system be updated so we can list what ships are sold and their price. Then maybe be able to search for the closest specific ship based on the system you are in?

Ok, that's some direction, thanks...

No problem, I will add it in next minor update.

You are not only one, Matt requested the same some time ago. There is just one issue that may leads to future problems - data size. Also, it is a lot of manual work for user and also not all systems are in the database (mostly just inhabited system plus some known from EDSC). I am not saying strict "no" on this, but I also want to wait what brings Frontier API. Maybe there will be elegant way how to obtain these data from them "ad-hoc".

That may be confusing with current CMDR's log and I am not very sure if that name fits twitter-like feature. Maybe we can go more in that direction, as something that informs about actual events, announce things, etc.?

It was discussed earlier - it's not hard to do, but I am not very sure about the benefits. There is usually no problem to find desired ships in current system or other adjacent system. I am afraid not so much commanders will be willing to fill in this kind to information for each station.

LoriathKeep seeing this error on the Cmdr's Log / Credits and assets Under Estimated Credit Balance:


Uh, I forgot to handle negative "gains" there. It was fixed right now, thank you for report!

Your Welcome

Hi,

Is there any possibility to get station market information a little one-liner that can tells us with one quick look when the prices last updated?

Don't mind if the update datetime is for EliteOCR csv-dumb or just one price change.
06 May 2015, 9:02pm
It's no problem for EliteOCR imports (for one price change it tells almost nothing), I will put it to the next update.

Oreg: Yeah, I saw it before, nice one!

Loving this page and it utility ,more and more as each day goes by (Blog) great work Artie

I'm confused (trust me it isn't hard to do LOL) On the market I am looking for a good trade between Diso and somewhere for the CG. However I am having problems as one of the options is to go to Zaonce and Sawyer Station taking tobacco along for the ride. However tobacco isn't listed as a price and is illegal in the system. Is there a glitch in the matrix?



09 May 2015, 10:31am
Oreg: Thank you

Lase: Well, I am not able to replicate this problem, it seems that prices changed meanwhile and problem is gone. I will make a note for myself and try to find the cause, please let me know if anything like that happens again.
