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.

Happy New Year everybody, once again!




Whiplash 1983Noting an important outfitting module omission from the list.

Fleet and Modules / All Modules / [Any] Module Type / Standard Docking Computer (1E)

. . . . is missing from the list of my stored or fitted fleet modules.

So, as I was double-checking, both docking computer variants should be listed, so you have probably just missed it in the list?


ZencowHappy New Year!

I have discovered that Raw Material Polonium has a maximum capacity of 100, instead of 150.

As other commanders are having 150 of the materials stored, I am not sure about it. But as mentioned, there may be some mismatches with the game rarity in the game and I am not sure if it's consistent for all commanders. I will rather keep the bigger value there.

Aunty SledgeHappy New Year Artie, got a couple of little requests to go on the ever growing list.

1) Fleet Modules -> Stored Modules. Please can we list all modules on 1 page? The in-game limit is 120, so raising the page limit from 100 to 120 would be nice.

2) Fleet Modules -> All Modules. Please can we have the header ordering on this page as we have in the Stored Modules page?

The first one is no problem, will be in the next update. The second one is more complicated, as it's tied to the paging and it generally requires to change how are data into (some) tables loaded. It's on my list, but no ETA.

aeonis there a way to hide some ships to not show up in the My Fleet page? I have several ships that are solely used for storage so was wondering if those can be hidden. Thanks

Although ship deletion as mentioned may be a workaround, I do not recommend it. You can get your ships added again during an update at some point and most importantly - you will loose a track which modules are you having stored on such ships. As this situation is caused rather by a limited modules storage capacity in the game, I do not want to make exceptions for it. But, you can move/keep those ships at the list bottom (by changing their order), so it won't be messing a list of "true" ships too much.

Well there it is. Shows now.
I know it wasn't showing when I was interested. Sure I double checked several times. No matter.  
Could be I didn't own any (at the time) for it to show?

Really a stupid little thing but I get bored now and strip ships sown to minimize rebuy costs.
Still waiting for Fleet Carriers.

Yeah, he's right,

Yeah, he's right, Whiplash 1983. Don't overreact over just some tiny thing.
02 Jan 2020, 11:13pm
Ah, yes, that was the cause. It lists just the modules owned (stored) in the filters, to minimize clutter.

Thanks for the support, Artie

Yup... I was able to finish filling Polonium to 150, so it's perfectly fine. I'm not sure of the cause of the initial limit of 100, but the limit extended to 150 on my next login.

I was limited to 100 Polonium as well. I've retested it today and can now collect over 100. Looks like FDev actually fixed something!

Why does it never allow me to import frontier data anymore? I try to do it from STEAM, where I bought the game. The only thing I can think of is the STEAM Authenticator getting in the way?
05 Jan 2020, 11:28am
As I see, you had an update recently, but the OAuth access token expired later. If the auto-update was halted, please just perform a manual import again as noted here (same as the first time - click the button, enter the credentials, grant the privileges, done). Frontier is requiring a re-authentication each 30 days, which is a little bit annoying and there is no workaround.

I figured it out. Even though I have the game through STEAM, I logged in with my Frontier credentials and we're all good now.

Ultima_Louieescuse me why cant i no longer change my factions description?? just because i deleted my squadron? fkn fix it!

That's not a bug, but feature. I actually don't know who exactly is owning the faction, it can be any player (so any player can mess the faction information) and thus is this feature reserved to squadron leaders, related to that squadron as there is some "stable entity" responsible for it that way. I am not entirely sure if allowing free edits for unassigned factions is a good idea, as there were attempts to alter minor faction information to absolute nonsense in the past (mostly because somebody thought it will alter also the information in the game).

I have removed the description of the minor faction you was interested in and I will add a humble recommendation: if do you want something from anybody, don't use sentences like "fucking fix it".

Good to hear!

I bought ED about 2 years ago, direct off the website. I’ve just tried to add Horizons and it takes me through Steam to purchase, but doesn’t let me go through as it doesn’t recognise I have ED already.

Is there another way to download Horizons without going through Steam? Or to get Steam to recognise my previous version of ED?

If you still have your login info to the FDEV store https://www.frontierstore.net/games/elite-dangerous-cat.html, Horizons should be available for purchase and download.

Cheers, I’ll give that a try
