I don't know how that would be possible at the moment for a station you have not been too.

Of course if you've docked there before, you could look up in a loop and find the last journal entry when you docked there.

That's not a bad workaround.

I tried this below but it said variable B_StationName does not exist, am I missing something?

Event PREFIX B_ BACKWARD Docked where %(B_StationName) == %(EventClass_StationName)

It can be in the future if we use station information form jsonfile from EDDB. Might be a future addon.

Love the latest version, thank you so much.
The predicted habitable zone for each star is not always 100% accurate, anyone else finding this?

Well, that depends not just on the star, but other stars in the system as well. Plus a planet inside a habitable zone might not always be a terraforming candidate.
As such, it's not a highly precise tool, but a very useful guideline - especially now that TCs pay much better than before.

The history sheet used to be consecutively numbered by jump. Now the numbering comes from the log entry when the jump actually occurred. So when I look at my travel history goes something like 1,3 7, 13 etc. Not helpful when I'm trying to keep track of how many jumps I've done. Is there a setting to overcome this? Tried filtering the log to just jumps, but it just hid the non-jump entries and didn't change the jump or travel history numbering.

I hate to complain, but can you please fix the NOTE bug?
It's been there forever...

(every time you visit the same system again, the last note gets copied and it overwrites all prior notes. For example, you have visited Sol 50 times and you entered 3 different notes for 3 visits and all other visits have no note. But the bug will leave you with only the last note, and not 3 times but 50 times. And it gets copied AGAIN every time you visit Sol in the future.)

Thank you.

Hm, isn't this the intended behaviour? When I am entering a note, I do this to describe the system. When I visit the system the next time I find it logical that the note for that system pops up again. But I see your point - one could also say that the note is just for that single log entry...

Yes, the current implementation is a note for the system, not a note for the jump.

Put in an enhancement request for a per-jump note separate from the system note.


EDIT: NVM, created request here.

As other said it is by design that it is system note now. We have talked about adding a "jump" note too. But noone has made it yet....

A little bug I've just discovered - I only realised that you can change the colour of the App, so I picked the orange one ( can't recall the name ) however it's all messed up and things are obviously missing / hidden for whatever reason. My res is standard 1080 and no difference in full screen or Windowed. Not really an issue per se, but I can't see the Settings Tab to change it now.. lol

Sorry to bump, but had no response to this question.

Also another-how do you clear a route plan once it's in the 3D map? There seems to be no erase option as far as I can see.

Yeah, the grids are just filtered lists off all thr journals and the numbering comes from the windows control which numbers all the rows, not just the visible ones (I don't think there's an option to change that with the out of the box control). The Travel tab on the Statistics panel might give you what you need in terms of #jumps.

R.e. plotted route - there isn't a way to delete it. I added that function and intended the route to only be visible when you launched it from the Route tab and disappear next time you opened the map. Either I got that wrong and never noticed or it's been changed since. I'll try and sort it so that closing and re-opening from the front tab removes the plotted route, I might even think about a button while I'm there.

Thanks! I'll have a look later when I log in to finish my trip to Zarura.

Don't even know how to display it!!

just found the statistics panel, but it only gives me my total jumps, not the number since I set out on this trip etc. Could we have a way to show that please?
Also a minor English grammatical point but in the statistics panel you show: "Most North, Most South, Most East, Most West, Most Highest, Most Lowest".
It should read "Most Northerly, Most Southerly, Most Easterly, Most Westerly, Highest & Lowest"

Edit: alternatively: Northernmost, Southernmost, Easternmost, Westernmost, Highest, Lowest"

 

[madbilly]

Hmm, speaking of statistics, I was trying to find out what the largest/most massive/hottest/etc stars I've visited are, and I couldn't find this stat in EDD. Is it there and I'm being dense, or should I put a feature request in?

 

[iain666]

That's not currently available, no.

My apologies if this has been brought up before, but I have not found it in the thread.

Is there any way to calculate the (approximate) total value of exploration data you're carrying? I would like to be able to select a set of "Scan of" entries from the journal and get the sum of their value. I could use that information to decide if I want to continue exploring until I'm sure I will reach a certain rank.

 

[CMDR Smior]

what i did was export to excel. then sort the raw data.

That data has been on the "Suggestions" request at Frontier for the game day one! I suspect they DON'T do it to make people stay our or have to go out...
There is a App the gives the OLD low-high possible value, but the values just changed dramatically with the patch and no one know what the new values are.
