Discussion Bug with Inara.cz and Stronghold Carriers

I found a top trade route between two systems and went to the source to buy, but there was only 17 of them available. I have EDDiscovery syncing to EDDN and inara.cz with API keys, but even after landing multiple times and going to commodities every time, Inara trade route still was showing 40,000+ Agronomic Treatment. The strange thing is that it showed the source and destination star system was the same (which would have been awesome for sure!).

I then figured out what is going on. Even though Inara.cz trade route shows this for the route...
From Stronghold Carrier | Maikoro
To Hawking Port | Maikoro

If you actually click on the link, "Stronghold Carrier | Maikoro", it actually goes to "Stronghold Carrier - LTT 1289". The link goes to a totally different system's Stronghold Carrier. I see another Stronghold carrier for another trade with similar wrong links. Anara is somehow getting two Stronghold Carriers in different systems confused.

Interestingly, If I save that trade route as a favorite, It then shows the correct link for the source Stronghold Carrier in the favorite trade routes area, which makes it not a good trade route being so far away (LTT 1289 to Maikoro) :).

Thank you for the report (and thanks to T'kael for pinging me about it). Yes, there was a bug indeed - as the best trade routes search is expensive, there is some caching involved and I was not checking the star system changes over the cached results (because it wasn't necessary, the stations were static). But as the Stronghold carriers were introduced and they are reusing their market IDs in the game, the previously static stations are not so static anymore (and it didn't come to my mind that I should handle that in the trade routes search). I have made some adjustments, so this problem shouldn't happen again. :)
