Elite: Game talk

Just to correct - Inara takes data from EDDN, which is a common network where are data from EDMC sent. Themroc's EDDB is also listening to that stream, but both sites (EDDB and Inara) are independent on each other. So if do you will edit anything via Ross on EDDB, it won't appear here (same as edits here on Inara won't appear on EDDB). But as was said, it is good to keep EDMC and send the data to EDDN for sure.

Thank you both, Leif and Artie. What will I do without you?

You might want to raise that on a ticket to FDev

Out of curiosity what paint job is it? It wouldn't happen to be the pulse paint would it?

I am brand-spanking new to Elite:Dangerous; starting the PS4 tutorials now.
How do you activate the pulse lasers? I engage the square button, but can only fire the cannon.
Thanks.

Look on your right-hand panel, do you have your pulse lasers in a different fire group? If so, you can change that to make them fire with your cannons or I believe you can press X (It's A on xbox so I imagine it's the same) and that will switch between each fire group you have made.

Yeah, not just paint jobs (I don't have any on my DBE) but my ID and Ship Name stuff has gone after the last update...

(I was thinking of checking the Frontier forum but I hate that place: feels like an ASDA/WalMart without any staff... one located next to a high school too... )

Just never log out - problem solved!

Hi Tobi & Tigon, Check frontiers forums, there is apparently a bug with X-Box store extras not always appearing. Don't know much about it myself other than there has been chatter about it, but I'm not on X-Box hence I don't really know first hand.

As a rule, Paint Jobs and Ship Kits frequently take a short while to appear in game.

I'd say if your payment has been received and the in game items haven't appeared within an hour (plus a re-log), contact Frontier Support.

Relogging solves quite a few problems, especially is there is a change in the game, such as purchases.

Hi Bexly, yeah, I saw that and checked the game last night: big bold TIGON scrawled across the flanks of the DBE again. Looks like the problem was an account validation issue between Frontier and MS/XBox accounts, or something to that effect.

Anyway, barrelling back in towards the Bubble again with the latest mid-range exploration data. Question is: who gets it?
