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 would like to be able restrict some threads in the squadron board so that only members with certain ranks/permissions can write new posts. Particularly to stop slow-chatting in the Command Room. Is this possible at present? I think not, but I thought I'd check. And of course, if it isn't possible, can I respectfully add it to the "suggestions" pile?

J. Louis CypherHey Artie, any ideas way I have so many rank updates in my achievements history? I1s there an issue with the sync of EDDiscovery?
Thx


Hello, it's a bug in the journal. For some reason it's throwing two Promotion events into the journal shortly after each other, one with the correct rank and one with the incorrect. I have reported it to Frontier, for now please just remove any excessive events from your achievements history.


Don't worry... I really couldn't care less. Just wanted to let you know....
Thx for the clarification!

I've come across a weird bug or issue now that I'm headed out into the black. The 'nearest' option says it's unable to find any station, fleet carrier or outpost with 'Universal Cartographics' within 500,000ly of my position.

I can truly say that I've not gone that far as I'm only at 'Outopps LQ-C c26-3' which is around 1,700ly from Sol.

Is there an issue or is this a bug?

For uninhabited systems outside the bubble (and other places of notable general interest) please use the galactic regions to find nearby stations/fleet carriers. Inara does not save all those "empty" (in terms of being inhabited) system's locations.

There is an option for the limitation of the overall thread access currently, but yeah - havgin the posting privileges extra may be useful. I would like to do a general pass over the discussion system later on, so I will note this down for that as well.

ThaurionPermettre un système d'annonces en temps réel en jeu afin d'encourager les rencontres et le gameplay entre joueurs. Aussi, un système de revente afin d'encourager le commerce direct entre joueurs.

o7 commander, tu est sur un site créer et gérer par des fans et qui n'est pas lier a Frontier Development, si tu a une idée pour le jeu un ticket au support de Frontier te permettra de la leur transmettre

Hey Artie, for a System's "Traffic" counter. Is it showing how many commanders have visited the system daily, or is it how many times their ships have arrived at the star? Like, If I was the only one to visit a system, but I did it 10x that day, would the counter say 1 or 10?

Yes, it's based on the individual unique commanders, regardless how often they visit the star system. There is a scaling factor though, to somewhat match the in-game numbers, so it's just an estimate (and it may be quite off sometimes due this).

ArtieThat's what I would like to avoid, it's heavily dependent on player actions and relatively low and time-limited sample. But, I think that I have found a solution, please try this (Nearest search > Misc > Nearest restore missions). I am quite confident it should provide a good list where to find the restore missions, but please let me know if there will be any troubles with it (I can try to further refine the search conditions).


Thanks for this, I've done some testing with it and it's not let me down yet.

Aunty SledgeHi Artie,

Regarding the Combat Bond discussion, I've just had a look and there is an entry for Surface Combat Bonds.

As Bounties are already a combined space/surface number could you consider combining the Combat Bonds and Surface Combat Bonds figures for the medal calculations?

ArtieAh, I didn't notice it was silently added there (was not present in the stats before). Yes, I will make it count towards the medal, too. Thanks for mentioning it.


Just checking, did this make it onto the to-do list?
11 Feb 2022, 6:08pm
Yes, the update with the change will be deployed this or early next week.

Oh, so there is a scaling factor involved. All this time I thought it was directly showing the amount of Inara CMDRs passing through and got confused here and there when systems went from 0-5 straight to 60+

EpisparhArtie, why today's GalNet is in french?


For me it's posted both in French and English.

Because it slips into the english Galnet listings on Frontier's end sometimes, no idea why. Thanks for the notice, removed.

Can confirm it's on Frontier's end, webhook in an allied squadron Discord dropped the article in French.
