Engineers So you've run out of inventory space...

Eccentric Hyperspace Trajectories and Open Symmetric Keys are used for FSD Interdictor (Grade 3 and 4 "Expanded Capture Arc" and Level 2 "Longer Range FSD Interdictor", respectively) according to the blueprints on Inara. I haven't checked these in-game though, as I do not have access to Colonel Bris Dekker yet.

I've taken another pass at the data with a few updates, and have removed these. We're all working from the same source (Qohen Leth's excellent spreadsheet) so any changes there will reflect in the data available elsewhere.
 
Copied and modified from OP to reflect 2.1.05 changes. Most are using online tools, but I made this for my own use, so I thought I would throw it back in this thread.



Unused Materials

These are the materials that have no known use by engineers:

· Basic Conductors
· Chemical Storage Units
· Compact Composites
· Crystal Shards
· Flawed Focus Crystals
· Galvanizing Alloys
· Heat Conductors – not listed on INARA
· Heat Resistant Ceramics
· Phase Alloys – LW mount G4
· Proto Light Alloys - LW mount G4
· Salvaged Alloys – Now used armor, hull, mounts
· Tellurium – FSD, PP
· Tempered Alloys
· Worn Shield Emitters – PD G1, PP G1

Unused Data

The data that have no known use are:

· Abnormal Compact Emission Data – G5 Clean Drive
· Adaptive Encryptors Capture
· Anomalous Bulk Scan Data – FSDI G3, PD’s
· Classified Scan Databanks
· Classified Scan Fragment – FSDI G5
· Classified Shield Databanks – not listed on INARA
· Datamined Wake Exceptions – FDS G5 Ext. range
· Decoded Emission Data – Clean drive G4
· Divergent Scan Data – FSDI G4 arc
· Exceptional Scrambled Emission Data – Weapons G3, SCB
· Peculiar Shield Frequency Data
· Tagged Encryption Codes – FSDI
· Unidentified Scan Archives
 
And three of the new engineers need a lot of data to unlock:

Ram Tah, Meene
Specializations: Defences, Limpets
Referred from engineer: Lei Cheung
Invitation criteria: Surveyor or better in Pilot Federation Explorer rank.
Unlock criteria: Provide 50 units of Classified Scan Databanks.

The Sarge, Beta-3 Tucani
Specializations: Limpets, Cannon
Referred from engineer: Juri Ishmaak
Invitation criteria: Midshipman or higher rank with the Federation Navy.
Unlock criteria: Provide 50 units of Aberrant Shield Pattern Analysis.

Tiana Fortune, Achenar (requires permit)
Specializations: Limpets, Scanners
Referred from engineer:Hera Tani
Invitation criteria: Friendly or better rank with the Empire.
Unlock criteria: Provide 50 units of Decoded Emission Data.

Op can you update your post please before some people get caught out?
 
What I have, and what I need to fully kit out at least 1 new big ships with Shield Res and Incendiary Meta, and some AMFU, MC Reload and Jumponium Synthesis. Plenty of Material space, and will have plenty of data space once the new Engineers arrive and I can dump 150 on them.

It beggars belief that FD would implement a system that requires significant inventory management within a game that has no inventory management.

Horse? Cart..?

Sorry for the delay, I've been trying to get Coriolis up-to-date for 2.2.

The initial list has been updated, please let me know if I've missed anything. Thanks.
FYI: You need to remove Tellerium from your list in the OP. It is used for G5 Overcharged Power Plant.

Good work keeping it updated.

The opening post NEEDS to be EDITED to REMOVE "Classified Scanned Databanks" from the list of "NO use" data!

Ram Tah needs 50 of those to unlock him!

Would hate to see someone new to the game use this thread to determine what to get rid of, only to discover that the 38 CSD they just trashed would have made a big dent in unlocking Ram Tah! ;)

Same goes for Aberrant Shield Pattern Analysis, The Sarge wants 50 to unlock him.

Managing inventory gets quite complicated after a while, especially when trying to unlock or increase rep with engineers. Once you have the highest level access to most of the engineers you can dump many low or mid-grade materials and typically keep the high-grade ones.

The Inara engineers site is invaluable, in case anyone hasn't heard of it:

Oo eck... just realised i have been chucking away stuff that might be needed with the latest batch of engineers. Life gets complicated!
