Data cleanup efforts throughout the galaxy

I'd like to reserve the two following systems:
  • Dryio Flyuae KD-S d4-779
  • Oob Freau II-B d13-1860
I think I can make it there within the next couple of days. This will also be a good test if this will work with the console updater.

I'm in Oob Freau II-B d13-1860 now and have FSS'ed all planets. The console updater updated several times and if I look the planets in question up on EDSM it says that I have scanned them. Yet, their planet type is still unknown.
How shall i proceed from here?

Sorry Schlowi123, I think there was some confusion: AFAIK The console updater will only give the star coordinates from a console game. For the full bodies data it is my belief you're out of luck. And this bodies data is what we're working on.
...I could be wrong, but you can do more research on what the console updater can and cannot do maybe?
If it is indeed limited to stars positioning, then the best 'cleanup' work you could do on console is related to finding stars coordinates that EDSM does not know. AKA the Red Star Eliminator... which is an addon to EDMC and I believe not available for consoles, double frak... :(

Anthor has fixed a bug in EDSM so (hopefully) some of these import issues should be resolved.

Anyway Chraisuae IM-V e2-791 is now fixed:-

Good job gang... It's nice that we can help Anthor spot a few rare bugs with this oddball work we're doing. Another cool thing that might happen: I once found a few misnamed planets that didn't belong in the database, so here I was in the EDSM cleanup channel requesting the Death Star fires when ready. XD

Oh, and I found an interesting tidbit about how (I think) Spansh updates: I believe the work we're doing affects the 'celestial bodies' database as seen here: https://www.edsm.net/en/nightly-dumps. It's an infrequently updated file (once a month maybe?), I believe that's the one that spansh needs to get back to update itself... And I'm personally flabberghasted that it's a hundred gigabytes, yeow.

Usually the console updater works fine. If I jump in a new system and scan x-amount of bodies, these appear on EDSM. If I jump into a known system and scan known bodies, these get (on EDSM) the tag that I have scanned (or mapped) them.
So sth. is strange with these bodies itself.
So making screenshots of these bodies and sending them to somebody would be too much work for the somebody, I guess?

Also: there are a number of systems that have the same name in the database and in-game, too. Highest number was four different systems with one name. I think these are mostly systems that got re-named by "hand" (e.g. the NGC systems). EDSM knows about that and they can't do anything about it. You can't even select all of these systems in the galaxy map. the cursor will go to just one of them.

Press the search button again in game and it'll go to the next one providing it's still named that in the galaxy map.
e.g. search for "N Puppis" and you'll get a permit locked one in the bubble. Press the search button again and you'll go to another system with the same name.

On my way to BP area now from my last report, if anyone knows of other stuff that needs looking at on the way let me know. I've got the RSE on EDMC but I have found if I try to hit all of those I just never get anywhere, so I am only getting ones on my flight path and around my targets.

@varonica , it's normal to just tickle the RSE to taste, believe me!

You know Schlowi123, I'm impressed that console updater does that much! Nice... Do you use discord? If so I'd invite you to join the EDSM discord server, then you can chat up folks in the console channel, and maybe ask if there's a chance this console updater could -update- planets already present!
It could be it's an import bug, an oversight, or just a possibility!

So just to tell folks what I'm up to: I'm diving in the depths of the formidine rift to clear up a 0-radius world from a personal list. And then I'll be doing a 'small' detour or 12 kylies or so to hit Byoo Thio AS-P B5-0 which is on the southeast of the Vulcan gate, so pretty far from most explorer's stomping ground...

Also to help out folks, I've added a rough location in dark grey to the remaining systems to cleanup. (Big thanks to Varonica for taking care of that 'near beagle point' one, btw)
It turns out there's quite a few on the colonia-bubble highway, if anyone's making that trip (don't miss the eagle-omega one!)

FYI I’m also in the Formidine Rift area clearing up some zero-g/zero-radius bodies so please check on the off chance I already grabbed your world 🍻

I'm heading towards Colonia from the west with the intention of carrying on to the bubble over the next few weeks (I don't move that fast...). I'll bookmark the ones that are still pending when I hit Jaques and swing through them on my way back.

Thanks for the heads up, mine is Eock Eaewsy DU-B c15-0 , and being a kylie and half from it, I call dibs! :D

Heh, you got it Spacecat! I’m more around the Eafots sector slowly making my way towards WP3 of the Pegasus Run expedition. I’ll be on the lookout for system cleanups as I continue this galactic circumnavigation. 💫

I was in my way to Xibalba and I happened to be at only 500 ly from Schadgeia ZQ-P c5-0. Consider it done.

Thanks! That was one of the fairly-far-off ones, I'm glad someone was in the Crab's area.

And yianniv and the rest of you guys, you rock! That's a lot of typeless ones we scanned back to normalcy. This list is going down!


Now the -real- crown jewel challenge of this will be Preou Chrea LC-D d12-28, the blasted thing is past far away, on the far edge of nowhere, sheesh. Oh, and I see EDSM made a new bodies file on Oct 19th. So I figure in a week or so we'll see the list getting smaller in spansh, it's a bit slow on the uptake.

Just left Jacques yesterday heading to the Bubble ... I'll check the map / list tonight and reserve any that are close by.

I'll take Boewnst OR-X c16-286 as it's only 1K away.

Edit: All done :)
