Inara updates, bug reports, requests

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.

System is HYDRAE SECTOR CL-Y D97 . was an empty system with no station and just a terraformable world, but there's two faction here (dont know why) one is my own and one in an npc one
Thankyou

Just for info if it wasn't spotted already, this system was added to the database few days ago.

AterfaxAnyone discussed getting EDSM Intergration?
 Would be super useful for explorers and I expect it would be *fairly* simple to implement with the EDSM API.

Please clarify - what exactly should be useful from there? This question is not meant to be confrontational, I just would like to get better idea what can be handy (as I am not a very prolific explorer myself). In any case - I am getting some system updates from there (within 1.000Ly bubble from Sol).

OliviaVesperaHey artie. How are you? I hope you're coping good with all the requests!

Everything alright, currently working on some optimizations/tweaks needed before moving to the additional new features.

I think it was on this board that I saw some people comment about how it would be nice to have the shiny button replaced with a comment or reply button. Personally I really don't think that's required seeing as there's already a way to message the person, it's just in the form of PMing them.

I personally think being able to comment as well as clicking shiny will help the community to initiate conversations more. As it stands I look through the Inara gallery most days, and at no point am I gonna go to the extreme of PMing somebody to tell them a passive thought i had whilst looking at their picture... Unless its something really special.
However i do agree that it is in no way a priority, but at the same time i don't see people demanding it now like it is, so imho there is no need to denounce comment sections all together.

do not replace the shiny button- that is all.

Definitely no "shiny" button replacements at all.
But the comments feature is planned, so it will appear here one day.

To a certain extent I can understand your point of view. Maybe I've just seen too many comment sections blow up in pointless arguments over nothing. I'm confused though on why PMing the person is considered extreme, maybe I'm just ignorant but to me it's just another form of communicating with them =)

see the response I got from the Frontier on the cobra IV

"
Thank you for contacting Frontier Support.

The Cobra Mk IV is made available for in-game credits for players that have individually purchased both Elite Dangerous and Elite Dangerous: Horizons on PC before 5th Feb 2016.

Looking at your game licences you've bought yours on February 19th which means that you sadly won't be able to access Cobra MK IV ship.

So you know now.

The point i was getting at was the more options for a community to interact, the better.

You said: "I'm confused though on why PMing the person is considered extreme"

I'm confused too, because its just a personal preference of mine in regards to expressing my thoughts about pieces of media created by other people, I'm not representing the mass populace, just using it to add context to my POV.

How do I change the date of a logbook entry? I wanted to post some historical events, and there is a checkbox to "Update the date", but no field for that.

Hello, your e-mail address appears to be correct and the new password also seems to be generated, so as Remedylive mentioned - please check your spam folder.

PsylemHow do I change the date of a logbook entry? I wanted to post some historical events, and there is a checkbox to "Update the date", but no field for that.

It's not possible to change. Not because it is a technical problem, but because it will put your logbook back on the list (they are ordered by the date) and it will be almost surely missed by other commanders. So I rather recommend to establish own date formatting in the logbook title if it is needed, for example.

Hi Artie

Don't know if this has been requested before, but the ability to have a poll in our wing private discussions would be very useful (arranging best night for wing exercises etc.). Is this something that could be added in the future?
