ThinderINARA is slow to refresh and there is no solution I know about to this problem, updates comes every <> 15mn.


Hey Thinder, sorry, I was a little unclear: the update works on inara, albeit always with a time delay. Only on EDSM does it not work.

I'm not sure we should troubleshoot a different tool here (as opposed to just using/discussing it). Perhaps, if we do continue discussing it, we'd need to move this to another sub-forum (if Artie wants the conversation to continue here at all)?

You might find the EDCD Community Dev Discord helpful, especially the general-tools area, as it has channels for various tool support.


Good point, Indy And txs for this info, I didn't find the extern forum.

Defending the shit out of a frozen ball of crap 400kLs away from the main star for the third (if not the fourth) time is the best job I've ever had.

Edit: have to pay off a fine though because, well, ...

Things look really more violent lower into the atmosphere, took a few shots too.

Found a better resource for you, Ralph. Here's the Discord server for EDSM itself. (Found at the bottom of their website.)

AHI dragged with me a full set of weapons. Completely useless.

There are pirates at Beagle Point, I kid you not.

Any place with a visitor beacon, no matter how remote, spawns tourist ships and pirates. When I went to Beagle Point with my Courier, I had light-weight pulse lasers equipped and actually used them to blow up a few ships. The stakes are high when you're that far away from a shipyard and loaded with exploration data.

Rayman.i can reach 86ly if i put fuel tank 3c instaed 5c but thats asking for getting stuck around non scoop stars, looking for Raxxla or some weird stuff and calling fuel rats

I downsize fuel tanks on almost all my ships and make them just large enough so I can do two full-distance jumps. Why two? Because in some extremely rare cases the galaxy map promises you a scoopable star where there is none. If you have enough fuel to jump back, that's not an issue.

People end up calling the fuel rats because they make mistakes using the route plotter. For example, they plot a route with a non-scoopable star at the end, or they plot a route with jet cone boost but forget to verify that the destination can also be reached without it (which is essential for the return trip). That's how they get stuck.
