Thank You Eventure, this one was really bugging me. Seems to be working now. Only time will tell.

Thanks for your detailed reports.
Hey Eventure,
your program is looking super cool, but unfortunately I just can't get it running. I did install it following the tutorial you mentioned and fed it all the paths it needs. I can also run it and the overlay will appear, however, it will keep saying "waiting for ED", even thou I am in-game at a station. Do you know what causes this and how to fix it?
This is what it looks like:
Thanks a lot for all your hard work man!

Hi Eventure,
first, thanks for this amazing piece of work!
second i got some tiny proplems:
i don't know what exactly happened, but in the beginning of me using this tool i messed up a couple of star systems
in a way that effects one reference star and messes up the coordinates for other new systems if i don't change it.
well i try to fix it with flying there tomorrow, but would be nice if there where a way to check for totally wrong numbers, speaking in million ly here or something along those lines
the next one, i had the wrong system open and added stations from another system, but i can't seem to find a delete button or similar for them.
also about stations, i register them properly but if i want to click on the commodity tab it says "no station", so i can't use the ocr feature,
seeing as i only went to two stations today and both had the problem, but the first worked at one point, i don't really know what i could be doing wrong here.
but otherewise thanks for an amazing and useful tool!

You need to jump at least once after starting TCE for the first time, If it still doesn't update then,
TCE cant find your position at the netlog file of Elite Dangerous, so please check, if the appconfig.xml path is set correctly and if the file holds the VerboseLogging="1" entry under network.
Please restart ED to let it write the position info into the netlog file. You can let TCE stay open and watch on loading your save, if the position is recognized.
If TCE did not display a position info after the restart and in game, then please check the appconfig.xml, if the Verboselogging="1" entry is listed under <Network> area.
There is no need in jumping to a next star. The location info at the netlog file is always written on loading a save, if verboselogging is active.
I will look into it to add a note, that a restart of ED is required to find the position data. Though i made it already.
Sure, i can add a routine to check reasonable values for distances. If you started with a new database, then i would recommend to start new again. Otherwise you have to fly to all newly entered star systems and rework the coordinates of them. Watch out for wrongly entered reference star systems!
What you mean with "had the wrong system open"?
Always fly to the station, you want to add, because the sector ID for the station is important and it is displayed and recognized by TCE, if you reach the station, you want to add.
You can always modify the data of the stations in database to correct the values, if something got wrong. If you want to delete a station, for whatever reason, you have to do it with the Transfer Database Manager (TDM) outside of TCE.
Deselect the station at the TDM list displayed, you want to delete, and transfer all others into a new database, that replaces your old database.
To add commodity prices to a station, you have to be at the station in game. If the station is not recognized by TCE at the Position Display, TCE tells you, that there is "No Station". It shows like "Star System Name : Sector xx".
At this point, you have to add the station and after saving the data, the Position Display shows like "Star System Name : Station Name" with an "Update required" note.
Now you will be able to add the commodity prices of the station with the Commodity panel.

Eventure - thank you so much for getting me back up and running with TCE - It has felt like I have been playing one handed without having TCE at my side !
Great new features since I last played in earnest !
I have the following to report so far ....
1. TDM imported most of my TCE.ini file but left EliteOCR path blank - workaround: run TCE Setup
2. Narcotics come up in red at the moment when scanned into the commodity panel. The data is correct though
I'll post more if I find anything

Mhh thanks for that and i think i have already enough data i don't want to lose, so i fly there, at least i can explore a bit during the way~
well i ment i had the system map for the sol system open, but i was in a totally different system and starte adding stations...but well, the tdm worked, thanks for that.
ok i'm in the station and it only shows me "system name:sector" and it does this if i'm not ingame, instead of saying "please start elite dangerous" or whatever it exactly was...
and another thing i realised which is minor, stations don't remember their right rare commodity, i can save it however often i like at one point it changes to another seemingly random one,
but the stations still pop up in the "rare commodities" tab in stored locations so it could be worse~
The min. pad size is selected though your selected ship type at the Personal Roster. Look into the Destination panel, you will see there is a new button above the scrollbar.
Click it to open the filter setting. Set a distance from star to filter all recorded stations, so the auto destination will only choose one of these.

TCE reads your last log file, so it finds a position. The message "Waiting for Elite Dangerous" comes, when a position was not found, e.g. when ED is starting, creating a new log file, which is not holding any info data of your position, till you are in game.
The rare commodity issue should be fixed in last update. Are you using V1.43b3?
ok thanks for clarifying that and seems that i missed an update there, still have b2~
Bug Report 1.42 Beta 3
Compact UI
Compact UI
- By dragging and anchoring a window its color is reset to default. Can be restored in settings. Also a restart fixes the problem.

bug report 1.43b3
well it's minor, i think, but still~
system visit statistic counter: flying to a sector, in a system, and docking at a station also counts as a system visit, which messes up the total count.
and by the looks of it, it only adds +1, if i leave the system/sector/station not when i enter it (currently having 6 entry's in the logbook and only 5 visits).
edit: ok entered the system 2 times more to check things, i have now 7 visits, with 8 logbook entry's, while in system.

Ups, have to recolor the panel. Will be fixed in next update.
Found the issue, now it will only count the star system entries. Count will be corrected with the next update.

I really like how the Inner System Location in the Travel Logbook changes to the Station name and how it says Star System Entry. It be neat if an edited location affects Stored Locations and vice versa. E.g. naming a RES location after a Planet. But I don’t know if that is how it works? Is the Sector ID always the same?
I know that it would not work for sector 0, but CZ and RES may be worth a try?

For the Narcotics prices, make a total price reset for all stations (with the new button at the Wares Database panel) or reset the prices by hand station by station or at the database directly (look here, how to do it).
Please change the location name of a res or CZ at the Stored Locations. There you can change it to whatever you want, to make it refindable in game. At the Travel Logbook, the categories of locations are displayed, but if setting them as your destination, your chosen location name is displayed at the Destination Display, and the category below of the named location.
Just saw that Conflict Zones are displayed as such at the Travel Logbook, like it. But Resource Extraction Sites are not. Probably a Bug?
eventure, yesterday i found something odd, referring to the destination + trade panel:
i was out mining, on my way back made a stop at an outpost, registered it and scanned the market.
after that i wanted to see if theres something to fill my cargo to max before heading 'home'.
so, i had platinum (amongst other metals/minerals) in my belly while scanning the market.
in the dest. panel it showed me unbelievable profits to make for heading home (>2k), so i opened the
trade panel. in the bottom left corner, as the best trade it showed palladium with 1,7k profits.
in the upper left, the station showed platinum under export as first entry.
so i ask myself: why is platinum listed as export commodity when stock is registered as zero?
to get rid of this, i opened the commodity for the outpost i was at, and set the prices for platinum both to zero.
after that, the dest. panel and the trade panel showed the expected results.
shouldn't commodities with zero stock be completely ignored by tce?
