Cleaning up the Galaxy's bad data: An EDSM story.

[BaldEagle]

Personally it has been great to have a specific aim for my wanderings - normally I head off on a whim
Final stats read: 3,300 jumps; 157kLy travelled to fix just 30 error systems! But 23 new ELW found.
Currently landed on an Allitnil discovery topping up my jumponium mats as I slowly pick a route across the Perseus Fade

How do I upload data I spent months out in mare somnia

 

[Lance 'Spacecat' D.]

Bazkav, if you have EDDiscovery, it has a feature to upload data.
If you have ED Market Connector, it does so as you fly (My favorite option)
Alternatively you can upload journals manually to edsm.net assuming you have an account it's this page: https://www.edsm.net/en/settings/import/journal

He's a console player, so all these nice things are no option for him.

Depends on the flavour, edsm works with xbox these days I believe?

Sure, but neither EDD nor EDMC jor manual uploads are an option.
FD only stores about 25 days of journal entries of console players anyway.

Well, just a little update with everyone. Big thanks to Orvidius, we did a check for zero-gravity worlds, and a few appeared in the galaxy that weren't in the original list.
(We suspect someone out there uploaded ancient journal files and things got a little fiddly)

But thankfully it's just 7 systems, the sort of thing explorers can just say hi along another trip, no need to hunt them down.

 

[Eahlstan]

I want to see that list of 7 systems
(This has nothing to do with the fact that I found old journals on a dusty HDD and uploaded them a few days ago )

I've put them at the top of our official sheet, same old...

I am off to Dryman's Point - only 33kLy

 

[Lance 'Spacecat' D.]

Baldeagle, you magnificient nutter...

 

[BaldEagle]

Dryman's Point sorted
It's 29kLy back to Sol or another 33k to the 'Sea of Dreams', so no contest really. I claim Pryusks HC-S d5-1
It is close to a ringed ELW I found some time ago, so may call in now I can map it ...
<... hunts around for a rag to wipe the windscreen - no good, the outside is a bit sandblasted ...>

Spoiler

 

[BaldEagle]

OK, Sea of Dreams fixed
I am 'off the clock' now and will wend my way somewhere ...
This has cured my OCD for a while, for sure!

 

[Lance 'Spacecat' D.]

I can't believe it Baldeagle, you must've done more than a circumnavigation of the galaxy on this project, you magnificient mad bird, you!

 

[Eahlstan]

Stuemau UD-T d3-3468 is done.
The remaining three are just 5000 to 6000 light years away, I'll do them next.

Well done - you get the honour of closing the list

You, Sir, are a cherry picking kind of human and I have proof of this:



Yes, that's in one of those faulty systems

 

[Eahlstan]

All systems done.
Any new errors in the newest dumps?

 

[Lance 'Spacecat' D.]

Curses, I passed by that system and failed to scan every single thing. Grumblemutterdistractedrant...

And I made a shoutout to Orvidius, let's see how well we nailed down that data.

 

[Orvidius]

Yep, the zero gravity report has been reduced to exactly zero entries. Well done!
