## FAQ
|
||
|
|
||
|
Most frequently asked questions:
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Windows complains that it does not wish to run the application, what gives?
|
||
|
|
||
|
The tool contains no viruses, but it is not seen as "trustworthy". You can however
|
||
|
right-click EliteBGS.exe and "Unblock" the application.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Does this work for console players?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sorry, no. Console players don't have a player journal per se, and the tool does
|
||
|
not support Frontier Commander API.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Why won't the tool start anymore?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Open the file explorer, and go to the path `%AppData%`. Once there, delete the
|
||
|
folder called `EliteBGS` to delete the tool's configuration and cache. If it
|
||
|
still doesn't work, contact me directly.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### I pressed 'Download Data' and it is hanging now and won't respond. Help?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Go and delete the `EliteBGS` folder as described above to undo that action.
|
||
|
Also please upgrade to version 0.1.3, where this feature was removed for
|
||
|
exactly this reason.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Why is it unable to find my player journal?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Usually your player journal lives in the Saved Games folder in your home
|
||
|
directory. If, for some reason, this doesn't match up, you can point the
|
||
|
tool towards your player journal in the third tab.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Why do some of the objective not show up in the final discord log?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Only objectives with the little checkbox enabled show up there. Those
|
||
|
that the tool generates by itself are not enabled per default.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Can I delete an objective or an entry?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Click on an objective or entry and press the Delete key.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### I deleted something I didn't want to. What now?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Just press "Parse Journal" again, and the tool will generate all
|
||
|
the entries again.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### What are micro resources?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Odyssey cargo that you sell at the bartender. Just like normal cargo,
|
||
|
they aid the controlling faction of the station where you sold them.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Why are missions accepted in a concourse or in a settlement from an NPC missing?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Because up until Update 13, they did not show up in player journal. This should
|
||
|
now be fixed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Some mission names are weird. What gives?
|
||
|
|
||
|
That's because the tool uses the game generated mission name, if it doesn't
|
||
|
have a clean and nice mission name on file for the certain mission type. The
|
||
|
fourth tab "Event Log" should have an entry about it, so please post those
|
||
|
names into this channel.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Some missions say they have 0 influence?
|
||
|
|
||
|
That happens for missions that aid an Election. The faction in question does
|
||
|
not gain influence during an election, as influence is locked during conflicts.
|
||
|
But since you are contributing towards the election win of that faction,
|
||
|
the tool picks them anyway.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Why are some failed missions not showing up?
|
||
|
|
||
|
The time span you specify must include the day where you accepted the mission,
|
||
|
as well as the day where you failed the mission. Otherwise the tool cannot handle
|
||
|
that failed mission.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### The tool complains about missing factions for an NPC I murdered.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The player journal only tells the faction that issued the bounty upon murder, and
|
||
|
not the faction of the NPC killed. The tool has to fetch that from you scanning the
|
||
|
hip. If you didn't fully scan the ship before murdering it, the tool won't know
|
||
|
the faction of the NPC.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Why does cartography data, and sold cargo show up for the wrong faction, but for the right station/system?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Because they only aid the controlling faction of the station.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Why are some of my bounty vouchers missing?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sometimes, due to a bug, the bounty vouchers in the journal have no faction information
|
||
|
associated with them. Here the tool simply cannot associate the vouchers to a faction
|
||
|
or station. If you are sure they aided in BGS, simply add them by editing the Discord
|
||
|
report.
