Inara updates, bug reports, requests
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.

ArtieYes, small squadrons (especially those consisting of a single/low number of members) may get disbanded after 3 months of inactivity (it means, no member was online nor imported game data). It's a measure to prevent occupying the squadron names by individuals and it doesn't affect regular squadrons. If do you will want to create the squadron anew, I can move the old squadron descriptions to the new squadron created.
Thanks, I'd really appreciate that. The new squadron can be found here

For example, I'm currently in Panorua. Let's say I want to find the nearest Technology Broker, I click on "Technology Broker" and am redirected to "https://inara.cz/galaxy-nearest/26/3097/". The "3097" in the url is 'locked in', and all subsequent Allegiances/Services/States that I search for on that tab will use Panorua (aka "3097" ) as the reference system. If I remove that "3097" from the url, I can refresh the page and my system location will update correctly.
Maybe this is a bug. If not, I'd like to request that the https://inara.cz/galaxy-nearest/ tool does not lock in your current system when making a selection, but instead will update itself to your current system if you refresh or make a new selection.
Perhaps a hybrid approach of 'locking in' a system when explicitly searching for it via the search button and otherwise auto updating would work?

- Is it possible to remove the "minimum of two additional members" requirement for creating a flight?
- Is it possible to increase the maximum members for a flight to 16?
We can assign people to carriers, but with current upkeep prices it will not be necessary, and 16 people is the maximum that can be reliably coordinated using anchor-wing method. It is also the usual member limit for small events for that same reason (and a carrier has 16 landing pads).

Done.

It's a feature - commanders were often linking the searches and without the star system ID in there it led to wrong search results. Currently, the simplest way is to click "Nearest" link again and the appropriate category, to load your actual position, although I understand it's not optimal. I think that there should be possible to squeeze some button like "Use my actual position" under the reference star system setting, so there won't be needed to put it there manually.
100.RUBHey Artie, we are thinking of using squadron's Flights feature to manage our future fleet carriers, so we have a few questions:
- Is it possible to remove the "minimum of two additional members" requirement for creating a flight?
- Is it possible to increase the maximum members for a flight to 16?

The minimal limit - nope. The maximal limit - maybe. I will think about that, as it has some internal logic for min/max of each (sub)unit and I need to check that first.

We would like to be able to use the "Member Activity Overview" to track how many Missions are squadrons have done on a weekly level, Would it be possible too...
- Add a "Last 7 days" filter for the "Member Activity Overview" page under "Squadron"
Cheers,

Interesting, are there any plans to make a dedicated system for tracking carriers?

TarthaliondorThe player minor faction for the squadron im in has been added to the game and shows in inara but its not picking up that its a player faction, inara still thinks its an npc one
Your squadron leader can edit the faction and set it to player run.

Jake285I don't know if this is a bug for me or for everyone but the Alliance Crusader has a Mass-Lock-Factor of 0
Ah, it's the unset value, as the mass lock factor was not know when it was added to the game. I will update it, thanks for the notice.

Just to confirm I understand it right, it's just about the time range, nothing else. Correct?

Just as the regular stations (which they basically are) for the release. Plus stats for their owners, market listings, etc.
Max BothinHi Artie: Etienne Dorn, Colonia Engineer can do G5 Sensors meanwhile.
Thanks, I will update it ASAP.
Amata LireinOut of curiosity: If a log or picture of yours gets more then 10 likes not all names are getting listed when you hover your mouse over the number of likes. Is there still a way to see the complete list somewhere/-how?
Currently no way, I can only extend the list a little bit. They are ordered by date though, so you see the most recent.

Yep, we would just like to be able to view the same stats on that page within certain timeframes, such as "last 7 days" or "last 14 days", currently it displays the entire last 30 days and we have no way to tell how many missions someone has completed within a smaller timeframe. (without just counting them one-by-one on their own page :/ )
