EDMC and other 3rd party tools

This isn’t 100% exploration related, but it touches so I’ll ask here.

Is it safe to assume that EDMC and all the other 3rd party tools can only be added on if you are playing via a computer? They aren’t compatible with the console versions, am I correct?

Unfortunately, you're correctly assuming.
EDIT: Paper and pencil/pen work as good as they ever have, though.

I see my CMDR sitting in his pilot seat and methodically writing down all the system data on a piece of paper attached to a clipboard. He’s scruffy, unshaven, and has a slightly haunted look on his face from months of solitude. The whole time, he’s cursing under his breath.
“Dammit Jim, I’m a pilot, not a cartographer. Ha!” Frantically looking over his shoulder, “Did you see that, I made a Star Trek joke! Oh wait, that’s right. There’s nobody here. No one here but us chickens. Bok bok!”

Then back to his note writing.

One thing I'd like to see added for consoles during the "Beyond" updates is the logging PC players have. There would need to be some new UI elements added to the game. Once done, some 3rd party apps wouldn't be needed unless they do more than what FD implemented. Not holding my breath though.

Never assume. But yes Cmdr these are all (mainly) pc based.
