Release EDSM - Elite Dangerous Star Map

I'm on DW2, currently heading for WP3 having visited WP1 & 2, but EDSM shows my progress as 0.1% even though my log has registered me visiting WP2.





I suspect it's because my Pallaeni log is missing. I've uploaded my logs manually, but the entries for the launch event period are either empty or missing (I suspect because of all the connection issues at that time).

I know from the DW2 thread that I'm not the only one with this issue. Is there any way to get the expedition tracker to update my progress?

Yes I sadly see a lot of journal file missing the Pallaeni FSDJump, but I wouldn't worry, progression will update after WP3, and it does not prevent expedition completion.
 
I am a bit confused here as I am on EDSM as MalcYorks - EDDiscovery is updating my travels and my flight logs are correct but under the DW2 expedition I am listed OK (#9881) as MalcYorks but the picture is default and it shows "no flight logs". Have I missed a step here to get EDSM to log me on the expedition?

EDIT - Sorted thanks to AnthorNet (post #2046). [up]

I just updated my Livery and was curious how long it takes to update on EDSM? I uploaded my journal file aftwerwards, but I changed the livery at the station I was docked at at the time of logging out.
Will it update on the next station then?
By the way, I just joined EDSM.net and I have to say, its amazing what they have done! It gives me a lot more interest in playing. I never knew the game tracked so much data.

Thank you!

All fixed ^^

How do I get my Cmdr avatar to show on the EDSM expedtions participants list instead of the generic one?

On your public profile, upload my holo-me.

I believe it should be the next time you load the game.
 
I newly registered to EDSM and uploaded all my flight logs with EDdiscovery because I'm participating in the Distant Worlds II tour.
Now I've registered that there is a DWII expedition going on but I'm not in the roster. Will that update over time or do I need to do something specific?
I'm in the official roster #2738. And my friend Emchen is also missing (#2740).
Would be awesome to contribute to EDSM with that tour.
 
In my profile the setting for "Delay scanned celestial bodies until docked" setting keeps resetting to "Off" even though every time I sign in I set it to "On".

Someone else posted the same issue in the "Dangerous Discussion" forum.

It will set to off again if your software don't have the same option set.
Basically it just telling EDSM to wait for the body to be created by EDDN. If your software has the delay option then EDSM shouldn't find the body already. If it finds it then your software sent it and the option is removed.

I'll try to tweak it a little more next week.

I use EDDiscovery and ED Market Connector. I do not use both at the same time and usually just use EDDiscovery. Both are synced to EDSM. I see no option in either for a delay in sending. I do not think that EDSM use to do this and that it just started, but I could be wrong.

It's in there, EDSM will only wait for the body to be created by EDDN before linking it to your account.
The behaviour has slightly changed due to the new amount of scans incoming.

My Codex finds don’t seem to be appearing in the EDSM codex, though apparently EDD sends them (Khaos526 is finding same issue). I checked night before last, though yesterday afternoon sold my data at Sacagawea base & haven’t checked since.

edit: just checked, still not showing.

It does seem that there is quite a bit of a lag time before discovering it in the Codex and EDSM actually adding it to the Codex there. Not sure how it gets updated at all.

I've noticed a lot of my discoveries have finally shown up, but there's still some oddities such as the example in the Outer Scutum-Centaurus Arm. Here I discovered and tagged a Roseum Lagrange Cloud on 3305-01-11 at 2:35:32 and it's displaying in the EDSM Codex. However the Stolon Tree I discovered 3 mins later on the same date at 2:36:19 is not showing up, neither are the Stolon Pods.

The earlier Codex discoveries I have tagged are also (for the ones I remember) now showing up in the Codex. Though seems to be quite a time period before they are updated. Just still confused with the last Stolon Tree's not showing up, but the Lagrange Cloud is...
 
Note that new discoveries that aren't in our code yet are saved in a temporary table until I can add them ^^
So new discoveries can take a little time, plus I need to find images and all.

Currently adding the last couple missing.
 
In DW2 For some reason the EDSM does not show any of my flight logs in the "Participant" section at my spot# 1057 name "49rTbird" just shows "No Flight Logs" :( The program has my current position so maybe it is just a lag in updating. Hope so anyway.
 
Contacting EDSM

EDSM asks you to contact them on several pages. The one thing I cannot find is the contact information: HOW to contact EDSM. They have a list of "Guilds" which I assume is "Squadrons". I wanted to add ours but I can't figure out how to contact them. Either I'm blind or it's just not there.

I am also looking for a way to display our Squadron's Systems in a map format. I was hoping that would be an option in Guilds, but it doesn't appear to be. If anyone knows how to display the systems owned by a Squadron, please let me know!
Thanks

Here's a dumb question I still haven't figured out yet. How does one submit distances now? I'm curious about getting the badge, but recall something that for quite long while distances no longer need to be submitted...
 
You just did :D

So you are the developer responsible for EDSM?\

If so you really need to add a "Contact" link somewhere in the tool.

In any case I have some questions: How do you get the data on Organic Structures? EDDiscovery has my find of Bark Mounds but even after sending data EDSM doesn't list my find anywhere. It only shows one discovery, no confirmations.

EDDiscovery has this data:
{
"timestamp": "2019-02-05T23:16:22Z",
"event": "CodexEntry",
"EntryID": 2100301,
"Name": "$Codex_Ent_Cone_Name;",
"Name_Localised": "Bark Mounds",
"SubCategory": "$Codex_SubCategory_Organic_Structures;",
"SubCategory_Localised": "Organic structures",
"Category": "$Codex_Category_Biology;",
"Category_Localised": "Biological and Geological",
"Region": "$Codex_RegionName_9;",
"Region_Localised": "Inner Scutum-Centaurus Arm",
"System": "Skaudai CH-B d14-34",
"SystemAddress": 1177567513979,
"IsNewEntry": true,
"VoucherAmount": 50000
}

I verified my EDSM Name and API Key between EDDiscovery and EDSM. It is correct and matches.

I mean no offense... My messages may seem terse (that's just how I write; to the point) but no offense is intended.
