Impala_MarkHello all,
Does anybody know if there’s a way to edit the “Registered ship ID” and “Registered ship name” fields on your Inara Commander profile? I’ll be damned if I can find it...



I "think" you can change them simply by doing so in the actual game. Then Inara updates it provided it's synced with your in-game account. At least, that's how I did mine.

As an alternative, you could go to Commander > Hanger > Fleet > Click on the ship Details of your choice > Edit Ship

Then you change your ship name and ID. Don't know if this will be reflected in the game if you do it this way, though. Never tried it that way.


Thanks for that. But that’s not what I meant. I realize that I was unclear. I didn’t mean in the “Fleet” section of your profile. I meant at the top, in the bar next to your CMDR picture. There’s a couple fields there for you to nominate one ship.

It's done from the same 'Hangar' page. Your ship infocards have little buttons with 'C' and 'M' symbols. 'M' stands for 'Main', and name of that ship will be shown in the profile header.

In the hangar section on Inara there's an "M" button next to each ship. Clicking that will make a ship your "main" ship in the profile.

Thank you. I never would’ve thought of that.

Last night I bought a set of core mining modules (launchers, abrasion blaster, PWA) and stored it on my carrier, so that I can reconfigure my Python when I'm out in the black.

Anything else I might want to take with me?

What Refinery have you packed up?
I usually have a smaller and a larger one in store.
Sometimes, I don´t understand why people only go for two or three different mineraly, when they could easily collect 7 to 10 materials without any more effort.

Because we're a lazy bunch... It takes too much effort to sell too many different types of goods since you have to jump to different markets to get good prices. Make it nice and easy: Take one or two types which offer a good profit and are usually traded at the same market. Cargo space is valuable for the most of us...

If mining in same system as carrier, or not in a system far away could store guardian booster and SRV on carrier and add a 5A limpet controller

I have a 4A refinery, so 10 bins.

Good idea!

I think you go to the fleet section of your profile and the C & M buttons allow you to mark your current/main ship for your profile banner

How about taking a range of eg. Refineries, cargo racks, limp controllers etc so you can experiment with different ships and specialisations when you’re out there.
Also, for interest sake, pack Planetary vehicle hangar so you can check out the new SRV when it drops next week

The new SRV won't be next week/Update 8, as it's still in development.

I doubt the new SRV will appear in Horizons at all.
