Bubble explorers wanted - Data needs you!
- Thread starter Lance 'Spacecat' D.
- Start date
We did it! The list was cleaned up to all that's humanly possible!!!
I salute and honor all of you! A mighty task was achieved thanks to all of your efforts!
It would've taken me months to do this alone, and you guys scoured this list within a week! (Okay, I helped)
Now I'll be moving on to other projects: As soon as spansh's bodies search is back in working order, I'll be looking to cleanse zero-radius worlds from the galaxy, maybe touch the zero-distance-from-arrival or zero-gravity ones (but there's thousands of those, last I checked).
And for everyone that -enjoyed- our little romp in data cleanup (The 'right kind of crazy', someone in Fleetcomm said), do you know about the Red Star Eliminator? It's an EDMC addon that gives the nearest system with uncertain coordinates from the EDSM database. One just has to jump there to help clean data, while exploring... And inside the bubble interestingly, there's several systems that need their nav beacon scanned. You guys might enjoy that little addon.

Lance 'Spacecat' D. Signing off, great honor to you all!

Thanks for the opportunity to help. Since I was in the neighbourhood
Nice addon, I just downloaded it. It never seems to amaze me the effort the community programmers will do to support this game! I'll do what I can to help.

I much enjoyed flying around mapping & landing on planets rather than struggling with the broken missions boards.
Welllll, feel free to visit around all systems around Mingfu, HIP 54530 and CD-44 1695 if there's a faction from those systems, become allied with them, see if that nets you the permit mission... I won't hold my breath, but if one of you guys pulls that off, do warn the fine folks taking care of the permit-locks forum post.
Waaait a minute! A station just -appeared- on the list, LHS 55, taylor keep. TO ARMS! Curses, 200 ly from my position and i'm not in-game! One of you will probably get there before me! ... or will you?
Ahem, if you guys liked this activity, there's some more SERIOUS data cleanup stuff you can do thanks to Spansh's bodies searches. Projects pharaonic in scale... But it's easy to clean up a few while exploring. I think I'll make a new thread about it and keep you guys posted here? (soon as I landed at LHS 55) ^n.n^

There, I stamped down that station that had appared in LHS 55.
Looking at the ROSS info, it seems this station was adjusted manually a long while back, then someone corrected manually to say it has no market... Then 9 hours ago someone manually corrected to say it has a market. And thus it appeared in the list of 'never had market data updated'.
So because of situations like this, and occasionally someone finding a not-in-the-databases installation somewhere in the bubble, we'll occasionally see a market pop back up in the list we just cleaned up guys. You can even have fun scouring the little-known edges of the bubble to try and find those few markets not yet discovered by EDDB. ^_^
But back to data cleanup efforts, please let this thread die, we're done... But if you enjoyed this, I invite y'all to have a read at this new thread: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/data-cleanup-efforts-throughout-the-galaxy.525853/
Now with pan-galactic scale!
