Check here, and get from here.

It's a small app you install that just sits there and reads the current state of the game client. You can assign a hot-key to take a "snapshot" of the data for the station you're at from within the game. By default it will upload the data to EDDB - Inara (and other tools and sites) then can pulls data from EDDB. So updating station data for the benefit of the ED player community everywhere is as simple as pressing a hot-key when you are at a station.

I've made this hot-key press a habit. Land, reload, repair, refuel, hot-key, then hit the contacts to claim any local bounties, then go on to the market or mission board to do my business.

The Connector also checks what services there are on the station - shipyard and outfitting inventories, if there is a black market, etc. Very handy thing.

Anybody able to point me to a system where the controlling faction is at War? I must find Military Supercapacitors, but the state filter in the galaxy map is not being updated correctly, so it is entirely useless.

The state filter actually filters by faction state instead of system state which is extremely annoying.

Is there a way to search the discussions. That way I can try to find if the subject has been discussed already instead of bothering you all (again) with questions like this .

Alright Ladies and Gents, little Engineer question here...

Looking for Proto Heat Radiators. Supposedly they only appear in a System that has economic boom running. I'm in such a System currently, and according to the Inara info, it's coming from Signal sources, whereas somewhere else it says off of Ships wreckage. Anyone able to confirm to have found one of these in either yet (if off Ships, please specify which type), so I don't go chasing waterfalls or something (found a array of interesting Satellites though, posted them on the Gallery).

First I'll have to do some trading, earning the money I need to invest in a Python and afford the rebuy. So let's do that with a Cobra. Thanks for the advice Ming the Merciless.

Answering myself, jumped into the game today, first Encoded Emissions Signal Source gifted me 3 of the aforementioned Radiators. So they do exist, just takes a long while to get them.

You should be able to buy some in Maia at one of the surface ports. Darnielles Progress I think.

Anyone have any decent advise when it comes to undermining a power, that requires taking cargo from them, before the system security vessels appear within 20 seconds of attacking the ship?! This is just impossible!!!!
