Release EDDiscovery 18.X is now out! New modules panel upgrade and Engineering

I'm trying to update to 16.1.1 , but win 11 keeps telling me I 'need to install an app for this task' after starting the exe file.
.

Does anyone have any ideas?
 
"Solved" on Discord. Well, not solved but found a workaround. If anyone has the same issue please report it so that we can see if there's something in common.
 
I tried to do this on discord, but all I get is a runaround trying to be able to post. Signed into discord so email address and password are all good. Go to EDD on discord and get a message this account is unclaimed, sign in. Use the email address and password that signs me into discord and get a message "email is already registered" so I cannot ask for any help on discord.

Now my actual question that I need help with. When I try to use the compass I get the compass layout shown on the left of the youtube video. How do I get the compass to look like the one in the youtube video and how do I get the compass to stay visible when EDO is the active window? Right now the compass is always behind EDO and I have to press the "Window" button on the keyboard and click on the compass to get the compass on top so I can see where I am and adjust my course as neccessay. Using EDD revision 16.1.1.0

You got the wrong themeing (this really should be deleted -.- ). Edit your theme (settings panel) and uncheck "Window frame". You might need to close the compass and reopen it (but maybe not), then it should have a different top row. Click on the icons on the right until they look like this:

If you need to interact with the overlay again press the activation key defined on the settings panel and move your mouse over it.

As for Discord: It's a Discord problem, nothing we can do.

Thanks for the response to both issues!
 
1. No - I thought it was a report of my ships and modules onboard in my shipyard and Stored Modules.

Same for modules as INARA reports all my Fleet and Stored modules Inventory.

My bad...

Came here googling the exact same misconception.. I was wondering why ships/modules were empty assuming they were what my carrier was carrying when I guess it's actually what the carrier is SELLING instead. AHA! gotcha! Thanks for this google seed I used to find this post in 2023! hehe
 
I ran the 16.2 "Update" and it didn't "Update" on win 11. Instead it wiped out my files and installed a virgin first time installation of EDDiscovery. Thankfully I had a relatively recent backup of my drive and folders but, this was unsettling to me. I've run EDDiscovery updates for years and never had this happen. Am I the only one with this issue? Am I missing something?

Oof.

That doesn't sound good but thanks for the heads up. I'll hold off updating until I hear more.

What files does EDD look at? .JSONs?

EDDUser contains your journal records, logs etc - You backup this
EDDSystem contains downloaded star data - you don't need to backup this, it will be recreated by re-downloading the data (if you choose too) if its not present.

The next version (out sometime in sept most probably) will offer downloading the systems data from spansh or edsm. Spansh offers star class data so the 3D system map will show the stars coloured accordingly.
 
Hello. Mining tools. The chart is not correct. The table starts at 100% and should start at 0%. For example, bromellite occurs most often at 15%, and less often at 30% and 0%. Why? Very rarely 3-7%. Very rarely above 30%. And the table generally shows that absolutely all stones do not contain bromellite (100% of stones contain 0% bromellite), which is not true. This error has been jumping from update to update for more than a year, will it continue for a long time?

Your "correct line" would read as: The chance of an asteroid containing 0% Bromelite is 0%. Which is obviously wrong.
The "wrong line" says the chance of an asteroid containing more than 2.2% Bromelite is 99%. The chance of more than 35% is 0%.
Note that those chances add up, so the chance for 20% Bromelite also contains the chances of finding asteroids with more than 20% Bromelite. So the line will never go down like your "correct line".
It does look a bit strange on the left side though. If 62 out of 74 asteroids contained Bromelite the line should have a steep climb indicating that the chance of less than 2.2% Bromelite is about 16.2% (chance of more than 2.2% is more than 83.8%).
 
Its correct. Your 0% chance of having a commodity is 100%. Then it decreases. Its showing your chance of seeing a asteroid at a given % x axis
 
It's a cumulative frequency distribution chart btw. It's not an error. It will continue being implemented this way thank you.
