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.

Whiplash 1983I just got an "EMISSIVE MUNITIONS" effect on a spin with Liz Ryder for Mine Launcher - G3 High Capacity Magazine.
Not listed as a "Possible Experimental Effect".

Thank you for the info, updated.

I cannot change my wing's "Flying in" status from Private Group (Corvos) to Open Play.

I am not to sure why it says i am in private group. We never ever play in private group. Could someone PM me a fix to this or a mod fix it for me?

Please just remove the player group name in your wing settings - it is considered (and displayed) as that the wing is flying in Open when no group name set.

Artie, I can't help but notice that there are suddenly a lot of new quad and treble elite players appeared this August who have absolutely no background with Inara whatsover. Just someone in an Asp (for example) claiming to be quad elite king and admiral... I'm not saying that anyone is cheating, but, you know...

I know this is going to require some planning, but do you think it would be possible to have "screenshot verification" required to appear in an "OFFICIAL INARA RANKING"

For example a field where you need to upload your right panel status screenshot which has your name, pilot ranks and navy ranking on it, like the official Triple elite thread in the forums. Every time you adjust your pilot or navy rank, it deletes the picture and asks you to reload the latest screenshot.

This would be peer reviewed by other Inara members.

Underneath the screenshot you could have three buttons, "looks legit," "looks suspicious" and "report image"
I suggest start with a "presumed kosher" score of +1 for updating the screenshots and adjusted by the vote like reddit.

Although a person would appear on the leaderboard table in the current Inara score order, his inara ranking number would only be assigned if there are no/few "looks suspicious" results.

At least for quad elite this would be nice to have and its still currently tenable numbers.

You could even start scouting for a few moderators to help you with the quad and treble elite status checks.

In any case, Inara is the closest think to an official ranking we have in this game and I would hate for spamming to make it all but meaningless.

Ah, yes, some people are probably thinking that setting their ranks higher than they actually have will bring them some benefits. I am cleaning those apparently wrong values from time to time (I did some cleanup right now, too).

Some confirmations for the triple/quadruple elites may be good. As there is not so much people with such ranks, it's not hard to manage. I was thinking rather more in a direction of confirmation based on upcoming journal imports (but it excludes Xbox commanders), so screenshots will be probably better. I will put some note about it on my (in)famous ToDo list.

There's no cartographics option at Long Sight Base, so you can't improve rep with Elvira through exploration data.

@ numa
yep those ''everybody meets me'' known bugs always keep poping up in posts .

@ Queex
as numa said , just relog . note it has been known for this to take a little time as well ( as if the rank update to unlock is on a ''tick'' timer like the comodity market ) so dont panic if first log dont work , grab a coffee and try again

@ arti
there is a saying ''a little info is dangerous'' or in this case confusing ! for a player to know there should be a cartographer they have looked at the engineers pages either here or somewhere else .
do you think making a note of this bug on the engineers pages worthwhile ?

Just to let you know there is two Griffith Prospect list in the Inara's Market Database.  System LHS 250 only contains one of such station.

Yes, as this issue appears here pretty often, I will add some note about it to the engineers pages.

Is it possible we can have some type of filter for the Community Goals on here? To be able to filter between ongoing and finished goals easily?

Perhaps add two additional buttons under the Community Goals button on the left sidebar of the Galaxy page that simply refer to Ongoing in one button and Finished for the other button?

EX:
Community Goals (clickable as it is currently)
Ongoing (clickable to only show ongoing)
Finished (clickable to only show finished; or just not have this button)
