Yes, it's my new file hoster for TCE. It's required for update checks, receiving update files through the launcher and it's the home of the EDDB Relay files.
In new territory and I have some more info on this.
The panel that appeared and brought TCE out of the keybind hide is likely SCAN PROTOCOL. It's got the picture of the star I was at. When I noticed it, I was in the next system. There was also also another panel up, in a weird empty-with-just-a-frame-way, CAMERA CONTROL; its label in blue just below its name said the star system name. It appears to be linked with scanning of the bodies via the FSS.
As well, as I was zorching across a high-metal content planet, status updates would also flash when TCE was supposed to be hidden. This wasn't as disruptive.
The Scan Protocol and Camera panel can be deactivated, so they didn't come into view until opened manually. The event reporter is excluded from hiding, but you can deactive it also at the Options panel.
The Commander view of my Personal window doesn't appear to be updating. It says I'm Surveyor Rank Trailblazer with 99% progress. But in game, it says I'm just into the next rank, Trailblazer. Later I noticed TCE had me as Trailblazer rank, but the progress still says 99%, while in game it's 4%.
The reason is, that your ranks and progress are written into the journal only on startup of the game, while your rank is updated by EDMC on the fly, but not your progress value. As soon as you restarting ED, all values are rewritten and your rank and progress are in line with ED.
So it is not an issue of TCE but an issue of the log from ED, which is not up-to-date with your progress in game. Therefore I can't do anything about it.
Thanks for that.
Also wondering if the journal has information on Materials inventory. If it does, I have a suggestion.
One thing I'd like to have is to view Materials inventory in a similar way to the Materials Trader interface, but when not at a Materials Trader. It makes it easier to see what Materials are low or missing and how they compare to others in their groupings.
Not to take anything away from TCE and Eventure, there is another program that can do that see EDEngineer. It does not give you the relative trade values but is good in other ways.
Thanks for that. EDEngineer allows me to see my Materials inventory by catagory and rarity, which is what I wanted. Elite is a great game, but without 3rd party tools, like TCE, and especially websites, it would be lacking.
I was wondering if TCE can show information on the current route set up in ED, like number of jumps, etc? I looked through it and the wiki but couldn't find that.
If TCE doesn't have that, is there another tool that can provide that information? Because ED is rather poor at informing me with this.

Sadly the selected route in ED isn't available at the journal and we all devs would be happy, if that changes.
TCE has it's own route plotter instead and you can find the calculated route at the Waypoint panel, if you have activated it at the Options panel.

I'm currently running the Python 3.7 beta EDMC with TCE and having no issues due to that.
I started with using EDMC 3.50 and later updated to EDMC 3.51, both earlier pre-release beta. When I upgraded from 3.50 to 3.51,I had the same issue. I just updated to 3.99.2.0 and got it again. How I resolved this in the past: even though EDMC was still communicating with Frontier, I went to the Frontier authorization site, logged in, and removed the key for EDMC. EDMC requested it again and after that I got TCE to communicate again.
However, right now, I try to pull up the authorized keys after logging in and get an error.
I have installed the latest version of EDMC as suggested on a reddit post that Obsidian Ant mentioned. I took the advice and installed for trial purposes. On launching TCE it says in Extensions/Staus "I/O or OS-error" I have not tried loading the game as yet. But thought I would report this here.
This is still showing as failing. I went to the Frontier website and attempted to report this issue. But it said I can't submit a bug report. , Frontier!

This is a 3rd party app. It has nothing to do with Frontier.
